I replaced 3 Exide 140 Ah Gel board batteries by 3 Mastervolt AGM 160Ah. (Jeanneau sailboat)
Maximum charge current for the new batteries is 45A, while my charger chargers 60A.
Is there any way to reduce the Centaur charging current other than adjusting the dipswtiches to AGM mode?

Surely that is 45A per battery and you have 3 batteries in parallel so you could charge at 3 x 45 = 135A.

Thank you for the quick response.
So what is the meaning of the 60A marked on the charger?

That is the maximum the charger can deliver. As you have 3 batteries 20A will go to each one at most.

Thank you so much.
