The advantages of using Lithium Iron Phosphate (LifePO4) batteries in solar applications

Nov , 12 2019

The Lithium iron phosphate battery consists of a newer technology that became available from the 1970s and has been used mostly in cell phones and laptops. However, the cells have become increasingly popular in the renewable energy industry in recent times. Although more expensive than other types of batteries, lithium batteries offer multiple benefits that compensate for the price. These can typi...

Life Expectancy for a Lithium Battery in a Stationary Application

Aug , 26 2021

One of the key attractions for moving to lithium batteries is the battery life being multiples of what is possible with lead-acid batteries. Yet, with limited operating data in UPS applications available today, it’s natural for potential users to question how long lithium batteries will actually last. To address this question, it’s necessary to first understand how lithium batteries degrade under ...

Which batteries are appropriate for low temperature operation?

Aug , 27 2021

One of the biggest threats to batteries is the temperature. It is vital to keep your batteries in conditions that do not affect their chemistry. Unfortunately, getting the right temperature is never easy. Whereas high temperatures are bad, cold temperatures are not good either. Charging a battery above freezing temperature is one of the biggest challenges for European, American and some other coun...

Genset failure to start: The big problem no one talks about

Nov , 22 2021

Failure to start is the most significant avoidable cause of diesel generator malfunction. Over 80% of failures to start are caused by battery problems. Genset customers invest significant amounts of money purchasing and maintaining generators. Yet the Achilles heel of these large, costly machines is a commodity product little changed since its invention in the late 1800s. Today most gensets do not...

Assuming zero manufacturing defects, what are the chief causes of battery failure for a generator start application?

Nov , 22 2021

Assuming zero manufacturing defects, there are three chief causes of battery failure: Failure to start is the most significant avoidable cause of diesel generator malfunction. Over 80% of failures to start are caused by battery problems. Genset customers invest significant amounts of money purchasing and maintaining generators. Yet the Achilles heel of these large, costly machines is a commodity p...

What type of Battery assessment is suited for GENSET applications?

Nov , 27 2021

Lead-acid battery monitoring technology has matured to the point where the IEEE issued a standard (IEEE 1491) in 2005 to describe the various battery health assessment methods. Most large data centers, for example, spend tens of thousands of dollars for battery monitoring equipment designed to predict whether their UPS batteries will work. Data centers with downtime costs of six figures per minute...

Why flooded SLI batteries in GENSET applications fail sooner and more suddenly than in vehicle applications?

Dec , 06 2021

Even though the batteries perform the identical job of delivering high-rates of current to crank internal combustion engines, the “use model” of batteries employed in gensets is different in one key respect from those employed in vehicles. Batteries used on gensets are charged around the clock, whereas vehicle batteries are charged only intermittently. Flooded SLI batteries used in genset applicat...

Why flooded SLI batteries in GENSET applications fail sooner and more suddenly than in vehicle applications?

Dec , 06 2021

Continuous float charging flooded SLI batteries accelerates the deterioration of polyethylene plate separators to a life shorter than that which battery designers intended. When subjected to continuous float charging, the dominant and earliest failure mode tends to be premature failure of the polyethylene separator. Separator failure typically results in short circuits that prevent the battery fro...

Suitability of competing charging solutions in Genset applications

Dec , 10 2021

Instead of polyethylene, AGM type SLI batteries typically employ separators made of fiberglass. Because fiberglass does not oxidize like organic polyethylene, float charging at the battery manufacturer’s recommended float voltage is not inherently harmful to AGM type SLI batteries. Therefore, the intermittent charging method discussed is unlikely to increase the life of AGM type batteries. The dif...

NiCd versus Lead Acid Starter Batteries for Generator Systems

Dec , 10 2021

Apart from a few special applications that use mechanical cranking, such as spring starters, the greatest percentage of generator set systems utilize 12-volt or 24-volt starter motors. For prime power and standby applications, the two most commonly used battery types are lead acid or nickel cadmium (NiCd). This article discusses the differences between NiCd and Lead Acid starter batteries for gene...

Characteristics of Lead Acid and Nickel Cadmium Batteries for Generator starting application

Dec , 10 2021

The charger strips electrons from the cathode leaving it with a net positive charge and forces those electrons onto the anode giving it a negative charge. The energy pumped into the cell transforms the active chemicals back to their original state. The generator set industry primarily uses an automatic type battery charger for standby applications. The system designer selects the battery type on i...
