Features & Benefits
- Electrical testing to 100% capacity of every battery string prior to shipping assuring performance of every battery string upon delivery
- Long life positive plates cast with a proprietary process and alloy
- Suspended positive plates permit free growth without pressure on jar and cover
- Waterbath charging results in consistently formed plates for reliable performance out of the box (no cycling required in the field)
- 20 year environmental and seismic nuclear qualification
- Flame-retardant covers enhance battery plant safety with self-extinguishing properties, LOI>32%, UL 94V-0
- Low-evaporation, flame-arrester vent to extend watering intervals and prevent external sparks from reacting with the hydrogen inside the cell
- Transparent container allows visual inspection of plates
- Soft rubber post seal minimizes stress on post reducing maintenance requirements
- Computer controlled heli-arc welded post seals result in consistent and reliable seals for less maintenance and longer product life
