What is the right duration of Phase 2 of a charging cycle?

Nov , 27 2021

The duration of Phase 1 is determined by the battery’s depth of discharge, the ratio of charger ampacity to battery capacity, and whether there are parasitic DC loads connected to the system. Although the duration of Phase 1 does vary, we are not concerned with this variation since, once the battery capacity, charger output, and DC loads are installed, we have no means to change the duration of Ph...

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...

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...

What is the Life Expectancy of a Lithium Battery for a stationary application?

Dec , 10 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 battery packs degrade un...

Some FAQ about the Lithium batteries for UPS

Apr , 06 2022

What are the primary benefits of switching to lithium based UPS batteries? The most common reason cited is the significantly longer service life. Lithium also provides a greater cycle life (the number of charge/discharge cycles ranges from extends into the thousands, versus approximately 500-600 for VRLA batteries), as well as a longer warranty. Furthermore, the lighter weight and smaller footprin...

Battery charging tutorial-Part 2

Apr , 18 2022

Equalization Equalization is essentially a controlled over charge. Some charger manufacturers call the peak voltage the charger attains at the end of the BULK mode (absorption voltage) an equalization voltage, but technically it's not. Higher capacity wet (flooded) batteries sometimes benefit from this procedure , particularly the physically tall batteries. The electrolyte in a wet battery can str...
