Sealed / Maintenance - Free
Valve - regulated, spill - proof construction allows trouble-free safe operation in any position. The sealed system eliminates electrolyte checking and refilling. Gases generated during charge are recombined in a unique "oxygen cycle".
Long Service Life
Thick plate design based on sturdy lead-calcium grids and advanced paste technology provide design lives of up to 10 years in standby applications.
AGM Technology
Absorbent Glass Mat technology, in tandem with one-way pressure relief valves, result in efficient gas recombination and safety of operation even in severe over-charge or over discharge situations.
Low Internal Resistance
Superb high-rate discharge and charge characteristics, achieved through advanced separator technology and plate composition, ensure reliable and stable performance critical in UPS and telecom applications.
Low Self-Discharge
High purity lead, in conjunction with lead - calcium alloy grids, account for excellent shelf-life characteristics permitting storage for extended periods of time at 20 degree C or below.
Non-Spillable Design - Ease of Handling
Proven VRLA technology guarantees trouble - free operation and " non-restricted article" status for surface and air transportation under DOT (CFR-49) and IATA (A67) regulations.
Rugged Construction
High-impact resistant ABS plastic (UL94 V-O flame retardant) used for case and cover. High internal compression ratios and innovative inter-cell weld technology impart resistance to shock, vibration, chemicals and heat.
Designed -In Reliability
Cutting-edge manufacturing and process control, combined with strict quality assurance procedures, guarantee consistent and dependable performance.
Battery Capacity
The capacity of a battery is the total amount of electrical energy available from a fully charged cell. Its value depends on the discharge current, the temperature during discharge, the final (cut off) voltage and the history of the battery.
Capacity, expressed in ampere-hours (AH), is the product of the current discharged and the length of discharge time. Battery capacity varies according to the discharge rate being used. Capacity increases when discharge current is less than the 10-hr. rate and decreases when the load current is higher.
The rated Capacity of a Power-Sonic POWER GUARD Series battery is measured by its performance over 10 hours of constant current discharge at 68 degree F (20 degree C) to a final (cut - off) voltage of 1.8 volts per cell.
