Deep Cycle Batteries of Flooded Designs |
|
Luminous Flooded Deep cycle batteries come in two variants |
|
|
Batteries which are required to discharge for considerable period of time and deliver a large part of their rated capacity in each of these discharges are prone to higher rate of corrosion of grids and shedding of active materials from plates. Hence normal flat plate batteries used in SLI applications are not suitable. |
|
|
Luminous Deep Cycle Flat Plate batteries have thick and heavy grid design with special alloys, which retard this oxidation/corrosion and give them a longer life in deep cycle applications. The plate active material pasting and also the paste's mix along with special curing process hold the active material against shedding. |
|
|
The Luminous Tubular batteries even have a more robust design. The grids are replaced with heavy spines of special alloy, which do not corrode even after 7 to 10 years of operation. The active material is held inside polyester fiber tubes, which totally stop shedding under heavy and deep discharge conditions. |
|
|
Application |
|
These batteries are best suitable for high ambient temperature and partial state of charge usage, they are used in various applications like domestic inverters, off grid solar photo voltaic system, home lighting systems, alarm systems, signaling equipments and remote telecom units. |
|
|
The Key Advantages: |
|
 Medium to very long service life - ranging from 2.5 - 4 years for Deep Cycle design and upto 7 - 10 years for ultra Deep Cycle Tubular design depending on depth of discharge, frequency of cycling and battery temperatures. |
|
|
Compact size with high specific energy. accomplished by special design of plates containers and separators. |
|
|
Very low water topping up frequency. Special alloy plates cause LOW or NO water loss from battery. |
|
|
Better Design: Better Performance |
|
Thick flat pasted plates with selenium grids and automated vapour; curing process generates suitable proportion of binding crystals in the plates |
|
|
The Result |
|
Much longer cycle life that most of the flat plate batteries in the world.
A cycle life of over 500 - 600 cycles under deep discharge conditions is delivered. |
