Charging the car battery at home.

Using the battery, you can run the engine and additionally use the various functional features of the car. The battery is just kept energy and, if necessary, gives it. Recovery occurs due to the charge from the generator.

Increasing the charging cycles or recharging from the generator does not benefit the battery, therefore, with the charge time, it will not be enough even to start the engine. The generator does not always cope with the battery, and the driver will need charging the car battery at home to restore the maximum charge.

This process is carried out through a special charger.

But, before you start work, you need to figure out the charge conditions, analyze the instructions and take into account the characteristics of the charging of non-servant batteries.

Preparation of the battery and security rules.

For convenience, the unit is best removed from the car and attributed to the room, but if you comply with certain rules, charging can be done without dismantling:

• works need to be carried out in rooms with normal conductivity conditions;
• charging must be passed away from items that are easily flammable;
• if charging is carried out by car, all electrical elements should be turned off;
• preferably not completely discharged battery discharge and start recovery.

Selection of charger.

It is difficult to carry out a charging without a charger, because there is a certain degree of unsuccession and discomfort. The best solution is the presence of a charger. Each element is represented as an electricity converter. The device works as a downstream transformer with a diode bridge. The essence of charging in the following - electricity 220 V passes through the transformer and bridge, after which the output creates a voltage from 14 to 16 volts necessary to restore the battery charge.

For comfortable control over the process, the device is complemented by voltmeters regulators, as well as ammeters, sensors and fuses. Many of the charging components operate in automatic mode, so a person should not set the parameters after prior calculation.

Recommendations for the recovery of battery charge at home.

Before you start connecting the charger, the following parameters and features are taken into account from which you want to repel:

1. The current for charging is calculated as 10% of the total capacity. For example, for AKB 60 Ah, the strength of the current is set at 6 amp level.
2. On terminals from the charger, the voltage must be 10% higher from the nominal indicators. For example, the optimal indicator is calculated as 12.6 volts with the addition of 10% of the same indicator and at the output it turns out 13.86 volts.
3. Fast charging is possible and the current 20-30 amp is used for it. In this case, the battery is damaged.
4. The critical voltage level for helium batteries is 14.2 volts.

These parameters are key to comply with all the basic parameters and rules for charge recovery.

Instructions for charging the battery car.

Many still do not know if the battery can be charged at home using the appropriate equipment? Yes, it is possible, but you need to consider additional recommendations. Pre-device must be connected to the battery and only after that to the network. Not compliance with the rules will damage the fuses on the battery.

Battery recovery is possible in two ways:

• The use of constant voltage at the level of 14-16 volts, while the current is changed. At the first stage of charging, the strength of the current can reach 30 amps, but after time after restoring the battery, the parameter is reduced.
• In the second case, the current strength is unchanged, and the voltage will vary depending on the current parameters.

After connecting the charger using the regulator, an indicator is 10% of the battery tank. Current to increase the charge will decrease. When the arrow of the ammeter fell to zero, it means the full charge of the battery. When using such parameters for recharging, 11 hours is enough.

The use of DC is harder. The power parameter is pre-installed, which is also calculated at 10% of the tank. Charging is carried out until the parameters at 14 volts are reached, after which the current is lowered twice and re-charging with increasing parameter to 15 volts.

After conducting such procedures, the status of the AKB is analyzed by means of a load plug, and the main parameters are taken into account. Now they found out how many amps need to give and how much time to spend money.

Charging a non-servant battery.

The peculiarity of the maintenance-free battery is that it is minimal water consumption in it, and the lid is sealed hermetically. For this reason, it is impossible to add electrolyte, although this does not need to do this due to a long service life.

General negative moments can be represented as follows:

• it is impossible to see the boiling process;
• it is impossible to check the density;
• the probability of a small explosion due to internal tightness.

Despite this, anyway, it is possible to understand how much to charge this type of battery and what to take into account. Charging options Two:

• the use of constant voltage at 14.4 volts;
• using direct current by 2 amps with changes in voltage indicators.

It is better to use charging devices in automatic mode. They use the first principle of charging, which is characterized by simplicity and ease of recovery of voltage in winter, when the battery is exposed to an increased load.

It is also taken into account that charging the maintenance-free car battery at home is possible after the correct calculation of the time segment. To restore 50%, you will need to give a current in the right amount. For charging, you can spend one hour with a current of 30 amps, but it will make the battery it is impossible for further operation.

For example, the battery is 60 Ah. The charge is set at 6 amp. It is necessary to restore the charge of 30 amps, 30 is divided into 6 and in the end it turns out 5 hours of full charge. As a result, this current indicator will fully restore the battery 5 hours.
