El rele solo une! Si hay tension de carga (de un lado o de otro) Se cierra... Nada mas. Ni el rele ni el sterling pasan a flotacion.
Lo que pasa a flotacion es un cargador o , si tienes regulador electronico, el alternador, o un buen regulador de paneles solares!
Mira como es la configuracion del rele!
No es que entra por un sitio y sale por otros dos. Solo une!
Y lo de las 4 etapas es por el regulador electronico del alternador. Instalando el aparatejo pasa de ser un ineficiente medio de carga, a un potente cargador de 4 etapas!
Digital software control with slow start:
Digital control (software) uses lines of computer code, digitally burned into a memory processor in the Advanced Regulator. This means that very complex information and mathematical algorithms can be processed that would not be possible with an analogue hardware system. The unit ramps up the current over a short period of time to reduce the chance of alternator belt slip.
Dynamic progressive battery charging:
This is a term used to explain that the internal software calculates a different charging regime every time it is used as the battery state etc. is never the same. Older systems simply used fixed trimmers which were not able to distinguish different battery types or sizes.
Programmable for different battery types:
Most other manufacturers fail to recognize the fact that the world has more than one type of battery. There are now four main groups, open lead acid/traction, sealed /gel, gel (Europe) and AGM To optimise charging for each of these battery types there are four totally different charging curves, temperature curves and safety criteria with each battery type.
Charges to 4 step constant current progressive charging curves:
All good battery chargers are constant current with 3 - 4 step charging curves. This method is recognized as the best charging type so why expect anything less from your alternator- in most cases the primary battery charging source. The Sterling Advanced Regulator converts your basic constant voltage alternator into a modern 4 step constant current battery charger, it’s that simple.
The Problem with standard systems:
Standard alternators are not designed to be good battery chargers; they are designed only to charge an engine start battery sufficiently to start the engine. Due to this inherent weakness, a more advanced regulator is required that, in effect, converts an alternator from a constant voltage battery charger to the latest 4-step progressive constant current battery charger (see battery charger graphs). Because of this improvement in the alternator’s control system, these regulators dramatically enhance the alternator's charge rates by between 200-2000% depending on how poor the original system is.
The Sterling Regulator is designed to charge batteries as fast as possible and to their maximum capacity without damage to the batteries or alternators.
What To Expect From An Advanced Regulator:
1) Maintains maximum performance of an alternator’s power curve within a preset envelope as defined by battery manufacturers.
2) Batteries charging 4-20 times faster. (depending on original system).
3) Enables 25-35% extra useful power to be stored in batteries. A conventional alternator will only charge the battery to a max of about 75% and, at about 35% remaining capacity, the low voltage level renders it useless. This means that, of 100A of battery capacity, only about 35A are available to be used. An advanced regulator will fully charge the battery giving an extra 25% capacity. This increases the useable available power by about 70 - 80%.
4) Battery plates kept free from sulphate damage results in longer life.
5) Due to the built in safety features, in the event of incorrect installation the unit will switch itself off.
6) Reduces needless running hours on the main engine.
7) Compensates for voltage drops resulting from long cable runs, ammeters, diodes and other general wiring associated problems.
8) Automatically converts a machine-sensed alternator to a permanent battery sensed alternator.
A todo el mundo que se plantea una optimizacion eléctrica a bordo, antes que paneles y otros chismes, le recomiendo instalar este aparatejo! Es el día y la noche!

Si, Si, ahora entiendo mejor, yo tengo ya un cargador en el barco, por ahora va bien pero seguramente lo sustituire por otro de mejor calidad, (este es de los de LIDL), la verdad es que carga muy bien y se pone en flotacion, lo que me llama la atencion es que tengo dos medidores a parte de voltaje uno por bateria de estos analogicos, y cuando esta cargando en el display del cargador se ven picos de 13,8 y hasta 14,2 v, luego pasa a flotacion y se baja a 12,8V, y en los voltimetros analogicos marcan 13V con picos en carga de 14 y 15V, cuando esta el alternador cargando los voltimetros analogicos se van a 15V que es zona roja....
cuando esta recien cargada, al utilizar equipos a 12V fondeado o en el pantalan, va bajando dependiendo del uso hasta ponerse en 12,6 o 12,5 ha llegado a bajar a 12,4V, pero nunca menos de ahi generalmente ya a 12,5V la pongo a cargar bien con el motor o en pantalan con el cargador de bateria, me recomendaron no dejar que se descarguen mas alla de un 40 o 50% de la carga...pues los ciclos de carga en las de acido cuando se descargan mucho sufre mas la bateria y puede llegar a sulfatar...esto me lo dijeron por eso suelen estar siempre bien cargadas...
Me despisto del post del ACR que lo ponian en plan versus el sistema Sterling, cuando por lo que dices tu no tiene nada que ver un sistema con el otro...en todo caso para mi plan de energia en un 31 pies crees que me vale la pena irme a un sterling?? o con un ACR, regulador de carga y cargador decente me llega bien...??
