GENERAL
The ODYSSEY Battery charger is suitable for
®
charging AGM batteries.
The charger is small and very compact and can
therefore be located close to the battery.
The charger operates in high frequency and
should be connected to a standard 220V to 230V
mains connection with ground. The built in micro
controller controls the charging process according
to the selected charging algorithm. The 7 Amp
charger has the 'STANDARD' charging algorithm
pre-set in the factory. In the case of the 17A
and 30A chargers, the algorithm is set using the
"MODE" button. The recommended charging
algorithm for ODYSSEY Batteries is 'STANDARD'.
