GENERAL FEATURES OF pbq VRLA Batteries
Unwavering Quality & High Reliability
The pbq VRLA battery has a constant and reliable performance. It can
easily be maintained to provide proper operation of the equipment that
it powers.
The battery can withstand overcharge, over-discharge, vibration and
shock, and is capable of extended storage.
Sealed Construction
pbq’s unique construction and sealing technique guarantee that no
electrolyte leakage can occur from the terminals or the case of any pbq
battery. This feature ensures safe, efficient operation of pbq batteries
in any orientation. pbq batteries are classified as “Non-Spillable” and
meet all requirements of the International Air Transport Association.
Long Service Life, Float or Cyclic
The pbq VRLA battery has long life in float or cyclic service. The expected
life of float service is 5 years depending on temperature. The expected
life of cyclic service can reach up to 1.200 cycles depending on depth
of discharge.
Maintenance-Free Operation
During the expected float service life of pbq batteries, there is no need
to check the specific gravity of the electrolyte, or add water. In fact,
there is no provision for these maintenance functions to be carried
out.
Low Pressure Venting System
pbq batteries are equipped with a safe, low pressure venting system, which
operates between 1psi and 6psi, designed to release excess gas and reseal
automatically in the event that gas pressure rises to a level above
the normal rate. Thus, there is no excessive build-up of gas in the
batteries. This low pressure venting system, coupled with the extraordinarily
high recombination efficiency, make pbq batteries the safest sealed
lead-acid batteries available.
Heavy Duty Grids
The heavy-duty lead calcium-alloy grids in pbq batteries provide an extra
margin of performance and service life in both float and cyclic applications,
even in conditions of deep discharge.
Low Self Discharge
Because of the use of Lead Calcium in the manufacture of the grid alloy,
charged pbq batteries can be stored for relatively long periods of time
without requiring to be recharged.
U.L. Component Recognition
All of our pbq VRLA batteries have passed UL tests.
