ip22 charger max battery capacity

I am fairly new to all this, so bare with me if this is a silly question.


I have read the manual of the ip22 charger and on the technical specifications there is a line that reads "Max battery capacity (≥0.1C in max mode): 150Ah / 200Ah / 300Ah" [12/15 12/20 12/30 respectively].
Does this mean the "capacity the battery has to have" or is it related to the amount of energy the charger will be able to feed the battery, regardless of the capacity of the battery?
I have two 200Ah lifepo4 batteries, I just want to make sure I can fully charge them, whether I use 15A or 30A.
Thank you in advance.

The IP22 battery charger would be a good match for your battery setup.

The charge rate simply dictates how long to fully charge the pack.

e.g. if your battery was at 50% SOC (200Ah):

At 30A it would take 200Ah ÷ 30A = 6.66 hours to fully charge the battery.

At 15A = 13.33 hours.

Both easily achieved overnight.

Our IP22 fully charges the 600Ah LiFePO4 RV battery pack at either 15 or 30A from any SOC. It is just a matter of the time involved.
