VRLA-UPST-Range-1

EXIDE VRLA BATTERIES

Exide Powersafe VRLA Batteries have been developed by Exide R&D center, in close collaboration with Shin Kobe Electric Machinery Co. Ltd., Japan, the manufacturers of Hitachi batteries, and are suitable for stationary applications in Indian conditions. The overall battery package is essentially directed towards attending to the inevitable rigorous environmental factors under which batteries are expected to perform in India. These include prolonged elevated temperature operation, frequent charge/ discharge cycles and occasionally deep discharges.

Powersafe Batteries use a proprietary composition of lead calcium and tin alloy for the positive grid. Alloys based on calcium are inherently of low float current characteristics. The grid alloy per se leads to low float current and hence low water loss and oxygen recombination. This inherently means that heat evolution in lead Calcium system is low. This, together with better thermal management, allows the Exide VRLA batteries to perform better in extreme temperatures.

FEATURES

  • Sealed Maintenance-Free VRLA
  • Less than 0.5% weekly self-discharge
  • Eco-friendly and ready to use
  • Cadmium-free
  • Flame arrestor safety valve
  • Extremely low footprint

POWERSAFE UPST

An ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified company, Exide is the only eco-friendly manufacturer to offer lead acid batteries from 2.5 Ah to 20400 Ah. With technical assistance from Shin Kobe Electric Machinery Co., Japan, Exide Powersafe UPST is built on an experience of over 65 years in R&D manufacturing and field operations. Also, the company’s large network ensures easy accessibility and service in zero down time.

APPLICATIONS

  • Off shore Platform
  • Power Plant
  • Switchgear operation
  • Uninterrupted Power supply System
  • Transmission and Distribution Substations
  • Telecommunications Systems
  • Railway Signalling

FEATURES

    Superior Performance

  • Enhanced plate length for high power density
  • Excellent recovery from deep discharge
  • Low self-discharge (less than 0.5% per week)
    Safety

  • Better Thermal Management in the system
  • Resistant o thermal runaway due to calcium tin alloy
  • Flame Arrestor fitted safety valve
    Life

  • Service life comparable with the best of the international makes
  • Design life is 20 years at 27under ideal float condition
  • 4000 cycles at 20% DOD
  • 1800 cycles at 50% DOD
  • 1400 cycles at 70% DOD
    Low Self Discharge

  • Antimony free alloy and hence self-discharge less than 0.5% per week at C10 capacity at 27
  • Low self-discharge allows the battery to be stored for 3-6 months depending on the ambient temperature and with occasional freshening charges, there is no subsequent loss of performance
