Victron Connect app screen shots (settings):
Battery Preset User Defined
Note from above absorption settings:
absorption duration - fixed
absorption time - 5m
Tail Current - Disabled
Trends graph for Voltage and Current
The battery was fully charged (100AH 12v cylindrical cell LiFePO4 battery, three 100AH batteries in parallell, 300AH total).
I ran the microwave thru the inverter for a few minutes and discharged the battery a few Amp Hours.
Then I watched the Victron SCC charge the battery up. Initially the SCC was on float 13.6v at 0 amps. After battery discharge the SCC changed to CC Bulk charge. When the battery attained the 14.0v absorb voltage, the SCC immediatly changed back to a float charge voltage 13.6v.
No Absorption time allowed by the SCC as shown in the two graphs.
Why was there no absorption time at CV 14.0v, even though the SCC was set at 5m (5 minutes) absorb ?
