CHARGING
Cycle Applications: Limit initial current to 30A. Charge until battery
voltage (under charge) reaches 14.40 to 14.70 volts at 68oF (20oC).
Hold at 14.40 to 14.70 volts until current drops to approximately 1000mA.
Discharge Time vs. Discharge Current “Float” or “Stand-By” Service: Hold battery across constant volt-
age source of 13.50 to 13.80 volts continuously.

15 NOTE: Due to the self-discharge characteristics of this type of battery,
it is imperative that they be charged after 6-9 months of storage, other-

wise permanent loss of capacity might occur as a result of sulfation.
