Plant Cells

Product and Service BenefitsLocally-Manufactured RangeManufactured by a South African company, proven under South African conditions.

Nationwide After-Sales SupportCountrywide network of branches and agencies, with access to information to ensure sound technical backup.Proven ReliabilityUsed successfully, achieving claimed life, in numerous applications.Customer CareEvery Chloride standby cell carries a comprehensive product warranty backed by the industry leader andsupported by a national distributor network.

POSITIVE PLATES are 8mm thick pure lead grids for longer life and to provide sufficient material to ensure that thereis no fall-off of capacity throughout the life of the cell.

NEGATIVE PLATES are of industrial pasted grid construction, for balanced performance and life.

SEPARATORS made of microporous rubber, for exceptionally long life and have high degree of porosity, ensuringminimum internal resistance.

TRANSPARENTCONTAINERS, moulded from transparent styrene acrylonitrile(SAN) to provide optimum transparencyand very high insulating qualities, eliminating the need for separate cell insulators

CELL LIDS. Moulded from opaque SAN. Are permanently sealed to the container.

VENT PLUGS are of a special design which effectively returns all acid spray to the cell, but allows free exit of oxygenand hydrogen gases.

FLOAT CHARGINGAs these cells are designed for standby applications they should be float charged to ensure that they remain fullycharged, ready for instant use,at all times. Correct float voltage settings may vary depending upon operational differencebut as a guideline 2.25 volts per cell at 25C may be used as a level of charge which will minimise the need for equalisingcharges whilst providing acceptable life. The installation and maintenance manual should be read for further information.

SPECIFIC GRAVITYA simply hydrometer reading indicates the state of charge. A fully charged cell will have a specific gravity of 1.210.

VOLTAGEThe nominal voltage is 2 volts per cell, i.e. a nominal 110V battery will have 55 cells. On discharge, the recommendedfinal voltage at which the discharge should be terminated depends on the discharge rate. For example, dischargecurves indicate that the final voltage for the three hour rate of discharge is 1.8 volts. It is not recommended to continuedischarging the cells once the final voltage has been reached as the voltage will fall away at an increasing rate withminimal gain of discharge duration and the risk of over-discharge.

CAPACITYThe capacity of these cells is normally rated at the 10hour rate of discharge although the capacity which can be takenfrom a cell will vary the discharge rate, as indicated in the capacity table. Capacity is also affected by temperature.

INSTALLATIONThese cells can be connected either edge to edge or face to face. The standard method of connection is to follow theshortest distance between two terminals.

RECHARGINGThe cells ampere hour efficiency is 90%. To fully recharge the cells the amount of charge required is equal to theamount of discharge in ampere hours plus 11%.

Technical Details

Design FeaturesDesigned for all standby duties including power stations, telephone exchanges, switchgear operation, telecommunications,emergency lighting and diesel starting.

Noteworthy advantages of these cells are:

ease of inspection, test and maintenance (a hydrometer reading indicates the state of charge) lower internal resistance which provides increased performance at high rates of discharge. no falling-off of capacity with age. life expectancy of 20 years or longer. designed for float-charge operation, always ready for use.

Premier QualityConforms to BS 6290 1984 and IEC standards and manufactured to ISO 9001:2000 quality standards.
