60V seems high, copied verbatim from the datasheet for a typical powersonic 12V AGM battery (12V):
Limit initial current to 1.2A. Charge until battery voltage (under charge) reaches 14.4 to 14.7 volts at 68°F (20°C). Hold at 14.4 to 14.7 volts until current drops to under 50mA. Battery is fully charged under these conditions, and charger should be disconnected or switched to “float” voltage. “Float” or “Stand-By” Service: Hold battery across constant voltage source of 13.5 to 13.8 volts continuously. When held at this voltage, the battery will seek its own current level and maintain itself in a fully charged condition so multiply by four, 14.4V x 4 = 57.6V max voltage at absorption charging or 14.7V x 4 = 58.8V On Thu, Oct 2, 2014 at 4:11 PM, Bill Prince via Af <[email protected]> wrote: > Many new solar controllers will let you program the absorption voltage. > We just started using an MPPT controller from Midnite solar, and all the > different voltages are programmable per the battery manufacturer's > specification. > > bp > > > On 10/2/2014 12:50 PM, Sean Heskett via Af wrote: > >> Hi Gang, >> >> We have a 48Vdc Solar site that the solar charge controller when it goes >> into absorption mode the battery array voltage exceeds 60Vdc.
