| However, the NIST scientists discovered that anomalous inductive voltages can be induced in the loop formed by the voltage taps. Gel and AGM batteries can be seriously damaged or destroyed if charged at the voltages appropriate for flooded cell batteries. In addition to monitoring independent voltages, they feature user-programmable functions that provide system designers with the flexibility to tune device parameters to meet exact system requirements. |
