Why Refurbish/Regenerate Your Industrial Batteries?

Refurbish or Regeneration

Most instances of refurbishment of batteries are the battery is removed, cleaned, and possibly some new connectors, a lick of paint, the water and acid topped up. This will possibly improve your battery in the short term, however to have long-term benefits Regeneration is required

 

Battery Regeneration is a process specially designed for reviving lost capacity of your industrial batteries. This process can be used to restore lost capacity of any battery industrial including forklift batteries, airline batteries and solar power batteries.

Why Battery Regeneration?

When a battery is in storage or during normal usage, sulphates accumulate on the electrodes. This sulphate can gradually reduce the performance of your battery. Battery regeneration can reverse the heavy sulphation and optimise the performance of your industrial battery.

If you are still unconvinced about regenerating your old industrial batteries, here are some more advantages:

  • Battery Regenerating can return a sulphated battery to virtually its original and normal condition.
  • The process optimises the performance of old batteries.
  • It much is cheaper than complete replacement, especially on larger capacity batteries.
  • The process can reduce heavy sulphation and enhance the batteries operational capacity.

What are the advantages of battery Regeneration?

By regenerating your old industrial batteries, you get several advantages. Battery regenerating is a cost effective alternative to complete replacement, so by regenerating a battery you can save a significant amount. In addition to saving money, you can also maximise/increase the life of your batteries by several years.

Battery Regeneration process

The battery Regeneration process is best called electrochemical sulphate reversion. The process involves removing the sulphate crystals that build up on the electrodes when batteries are kept in discharged condition. The process turns the lead sulphate that weakens the batteries’ capacity into active materials. This enables batteries to receive, store and deliver current normally.

There are certain ways to identify if your battery needs refurbishment. When sulphate crystals build up on the electrode, the battery might lose its capacity to deliver power normally. An increase in battery temperature while charging or discharging is also a sign of sulphation. Excessive use of water and a rapid rise in battery voltage while charging can also be an indicator of increased sulphation.

If your industrial battery suffers from any of these symptoms, take it to a good battery regeneration service, however make sure that the battery is functional as physically damaged batteries or batteries with dead cells cannot be refurbished.

How to find a professional battery regeneration service

It is important that you select the right battery Regeneration service provider. Before taking your industrial battery for refurbishment, make sure that the service provider has the necessary licenses and is equipped with the latest tools in order to perform the job properly and efficiently. Normally, once the process is done, a competent regeneration centre will give you a certificate that shows the original power of the battery and the increase in power after regeneration.
