Description of Charger CTEK MXS 5.0 white/black
The updated CTEK MXS 5.0 microprocessor-controlled battery charger with built-in automatic temperature compensation is able to solve a wide range of problems related to the operation and maintenance of batteries in various vehicles and is an excellent choice for those who have high demands on equipment.MXS 5.0 has features such as such as battery diagnostics that determines the ability of the battery to accept and hold a charge, a special electrolyte separation function that restores the efficiency of batteries after deep discharge, a unique preventive mode, as well as an optimized mode for charging batteries at low temperatures and charging batteries with porous sorbent glass fiber (AGM) , like Optima. The process of diagnosing, charging and maintaining the battery is easy to follow on the LED display. charging) and up to 160 Ah (in preventive charging/maintenance mode). Built-in temperature compensation ensures perfect charging efficiency even under the most extreme conditions.
The MXS 5.0 charger is IP65 rated (splash and dust proof), safe for on-board vehicle electronics, non-sparking, polarity reversal and short circuit proof. It is possible to connect directly to the car''s on-board network. Indication And charging modes Mains indicator Error indicator In error mode, the charger turns off the power supply and stops charging.
Mode for charging small batteries 14.4V / 0.8A. Designed for low capacity batteries.
Mode for charging conventional batteries 14.4V / 5A. Designed for WET, Ca/Ca, MF, GEL and many AGM batteries.
AGM mode 14.7V/5A. Use to charge common AGM batteries such as Optima and Odyssey.
Designed to service discharged WET and Ca/Ca batteries. Restore the battery once a year, and also after deep discharge to maximize battery life and capacity. Charging stepsStep 1: DESULPHATION (desulfatization) Applying voltage in a pulsed mode removes sulfates from the surface of the lead plates, thereby restoring battery capacity.Step 2:: SOFT START (soft start) The ability of the battery to accept a charge is checked. If the battery is OK, the charging process starts. Stage 3: BULK (basic charge) Charging with maximum current up to approximately 80% of battery capacity. Stage 4: ABSORPTION (absorption), ready for use Charging with gradually decreasing current up to 100% of battery capacity. Stage 5: ANALYSE (diagnostics)

Pros
- Simple, so simple that at first it seems that he did something wrong. Turned on, selected the mode and left. For technology not in use - just a dream.
Cons
- Not a magical couple capable of reviving a dead battery.
Pros
- Connected, selected the mode and forgot, then it will do everything by itself.
Cons
- The equipment for this money is meager, there is no rubber bumper and a wire extension, but oh, how I need it (for me personally).
