Bulk mode - current is controlled by the Ampmatic program until the battery voltage has risen to 14,3V.

Ampmatic automatic current control

The Ampmatic program varies current according to battery impedance to bring the battery to full charge as quick as possible without ever overcharging.
The MAX current setting limits total charge into the battery in case an aged or neglected battery has suffered electro-mechanical damage that significantly altered battery impedance.
Battery power is optimised during bulk, absorption & cell balancing charge modes by the micro processor controlled AMPMATIC program, a unique feature that automatically ensures the battery receives optimal current every second, and then tests to verify charge retention.

Professional test & maintenance cycle

Test period : Initial test: 30 minutes - Extended ‘cool down’ test: 12 hours.
Charging is suspended and the voltage is monitored.
If only the green LED (voltage above 12,7V) is flashing after 30 minutes the test is extended to 12 hours.
The extended test will expose suspect batteries that may seem to hold charge (following recovery), but lose power due to irreversible internal damage once the temperature lowers down to normal.
AGM batteries are expected to remain above 12,7V (green LED).
STD batteries are expected to remain above 12,6V (green / yellow LED).
Charge maintenance: during alternate 30 minute periods, at a float limit of 13,6V the battery is offered whatever charge current it needs to sustain it against any small connected loads or power leakage and against natural self discharge.
OptiMate PRO-S can stay connected to the battery indefinitely and the battery will be safe & 100% charged.

optimises battery power and life

In the absorption & cell equalization mode - for 10 minutes the voltage cycles between 13,6V & 14,3V as the Ampmatic program varies the current. This cyclic action effectively rebalances used battery cells whilst remaining below the natural gassing level of the acid mixture, ensuring that no pressure build up occurs in sealed batteries and overflow in std filler cap batteries is eliminated (if the battery was not overfilled prior to charging). If during the 5 minute verification mode the current demand from the battery remains high charging returns to absorption / equalization mode.

Charging Stages

Pre-qualification test / 3 types of desulphation recovery for different batteries and conditions / Bulk charge / Absorption & equalization / Charge verification / Voltage retention test / Maintenance program.

Desulphation Stages

All batteries lose charge when stored, discharge is speeded up when the battery is in the vehicle. Sulfation develops if a battery is left discharged for too long. Sulfation causes the battery to lose voltage and capacity, and the ability to accept a charge. The lost capacity cannot be returned by a standard smart charger, instead it quickly and incorrectly shows the battery as fully charged. OptiMate PROS detects sulfation, then applies "first aid" to recover the battery - TURBO* controlled high voltage at low current for extreme sulfation to low voltage pulsing sulfation for batteries in the vehicle - for up to 2 hours. When the battery is ready to accept charge, bulk charge starts. During long term charge maintenance mode a frequent desulfating pulse prevents sulfation from re-occurring, *The TURBO desulphation stage works best with the battery disconnected from the vehicle, it is automatically inhibited if vehicle electronics is detected.

Microprocessor

The OptiMate PRO4 is microprocessor controlled which always ensures correct program selection with optimum results and advanced Ampmatic charge rate adjustment control.

Automatic detection & recovery of deep discharged or sulfated batteries

For neglected batteries in a poor state of health, voltage provided is limited to a maximum 22V while the circuit attempts to deliver a small current into the battery.
This step engages automatically for up to 2 hours.

Fully charges new batteries within 12 to 24 hours

To ensure complete charge of a battery it delivers a variable pulsed current by reverting to the CHARGE Program for brief periods..
These reversions can occur as many times as is necessary to ensure that the battery has accepted as much charge as its condition will allow.

When the battery is ready to accept charge, bulk charge starts.

IMPORTANT: OptiMate PRO8 desulphation mode works best with the battery disconnected from the vehicle, It`s smart control inhibits desulphation mode if vehicle electronics is detected. During long term charge maintenance mode a frequent desulfating pulse prevents sulfation from re-occurring.
