Using an SLA Battery for Industrial Applications

 

SLA batteries or Sealed Lead Acid batteries are ideal for industrial applications as they require more power to function compared to other standard applications. Specially designed for heavy duty applications, SLA batteries can meet the power demands of diverse industrial sectors.

Why SLA Battery ideal for Industrial Applications?

The SLA battery's ability to supply relatively high power along with its many other handy features makes it ideal for a variety of industrial applications.

 

Industries might need to keep the battery on standby for a longer period of the time. Sealed Lead-Acid batteries do not have high self discharge and can be left on standby for a long time without recharging. The battery is rated at a 5-hour discharge or 0.2C and it performs well on high pulse currents.

Advantages of an SLA Battery

  • SLA Battery offers higher charge retention compared to the other rechargeable batteries
  • An SLA Battery is inexpensive and reliable
  • It delivers high currents and can be left on float charge for prolonged periods

 

As well as possible damage to the battery, allowing the battery to discharge too much can cause changes to the amount of power supplied, which could cause damage to the electrical components and motor of the forklift.

 

The medical field relies heavily on SLA batteries, since they work well on machines that are kept for emergency usage.

 

SLA Battery for Industrial Applications: Concerns

Before storing be sure that the battery is in a charged state. Leaving the battery in a discharged condition causes sulphation, a condition that makes the battery difficult to charge. To ensure long life for your SLA battery, use only a charger that is designed for the battery.

 

When you select a battery, be sure that you check its voltage. The voltage should not be above 12 volt.

 

Delivering massive amount of power, the SLA battery has become a preferred choice for industrial applications.
