Take your DLS Battery
Charger
to the next level...
The IQ Smart Controller offers automatic charging control for DLS
Battery Chargers, providing longer and safer use of your system's
battery. The IQ Smart Controller is compatible with any DLS Battery
Charger model and is covered under our standard Two-Year Warranty.
|
The IQ Controller
allows the DLS Charger to operate as an automatic 3-stage "smart
charger." This gives the customer the benefit of Bulk, Absorption, and
Float stage charging, increasing the charging capacity of the DLS
charger and decreasing charge times, insuring proper and safe battery
charging and minimizing over-charging. This "smart" technology monitors
the battery at all times. If the DLS voltage remains in the long term
stage for more than seven days, the IQ will automatically deliver a
boost charge for a predetermined time, then automatically return to the
normal float stage.
|
 |
Reduced Charge Times
The Bulk Stage allows the batteries to be charged from the full rated
load of the charger. During this stage the batteries are recharged
quickly to reduce charge times
|
Increased
Battery Capacity
After the Bulk Stage, the batteries are held in the Absorption Stage for
a controlled period, insuring a full and complete charge.
|
Reduced
Battery Stress
During the Float Stage, the DLS charge voltage is reduced. This
minimizes gassing while maintaining a full charge at the nominal rate of
the battery.
|
Weekly
Equalization for Longer Battery Life
If the batteries have not received a "smart charge" during a seven-day
period, the IQ Controller will switch the DLS charger into a
pre-programmed equalization stage to top off the batteries, dissolving
any sulfate layer on the battery's internal plates and avoiding
stratification.

LED Indicator
The LED Indicator on the IQ4 informs the user as to the status of the
battery and the charging stage. When first activated, the IQ4 will read
the number of cells in the battery and indicate the voltage of the
battery through a number of flashes.
6 flashes = 12 volt battery
12 flashes = 24 volt battery
18 flashes = 36 volt battery
24 flashes = 48 volt battery
After reading the battery, the IQ4 will initiate either a Bulk Charge
phase or Float Charge phase depending on the battery's charge status.
When the IQ4 is in the Bulk Charge mode, the green LED indicator will
flash rapidly. When the Bulk Charge is complete, the IQ4 begins the
Absorption Charge and the LED indicator will flash at a slower rate.
When the battery charging is complete and the IQ4 begins the Float
Charge, the LED will remain lit and no longer flash. If, when first
activated, the battery is not in need of charging, the IQ4 will
immediately begin the Float charge phase and the LED will be remain lit
after it has counted the battery cells.

Charging
Voltages
The charging voltages used to charge the battery during the three stages
differ depending on the voltage of the battery being charged. If you are
interested in knowing the various voltages, they are easy to calculate.
Follow the simple steps below:
1) Determine the
number of cells your battery has by counting the flashes on the IQ4 when
it is first activated (1 flash = 1 cell)
2) Multiply the number
of cells by the appropriate voltage for the individual charging stage.
Use the table below for reference:
| Charging Phase |
Voltage Charge per
Cell |
| Bulk Charge |
2.46 |
| Absorption Charge |
2.36 |
| Float Charge |
2.26 |
Example: A 12V battery
(6 cells) will Bulk Charge at 14.76V (6 x 2.46).

Note: For smart-charge
control of the DLS-54.4-15, use the IQ4-54V model.
