EnerSys has optimised the very successful Thin Plate Pure Lead
(TPPL) PowerSafe SBS battery range to create the revolutionary EON
Technology, a new concept that utilises highest purity materials
and state of the art manufacturing processes to deliver energy
storage solutions that can meet the requirements of emerging
applications whilst offering the end user enhanced performance in
existing applications. Historically, the useful service life of reserve
power VRLA battery systems was measured by their float life but as
applications evolve from pure standby to cyclic applications, some
traditional VRLA technologies find that these new requirements push
them beyond their scope of operation.

Charging Current
Recharge time is a function of the charging voltage and current.
In float applications where time to repeat duty is not so critical to
recharge in an acceptable time it is recommended that the current
limit should be a minimum level equalling the standing load plus
0.1C10 Amps.

Time (hrs)
Fast charge techniques are best utilised for frequent discharge cyclic
applications. The high charge acceptance of EON Technology is
suited for applications which require a faster recharge with reduced
time to repeat duty. In such applications the rectifier voltage should
be set at 2.40Vpc at 20C. Figure 4 illustrates the time to full state of
charge from varying depths of discharge (C10) as a function of charge
voltage.

EON Technology has been developed to retain the long float life
characteristics associated with standard PowerSafe SBS technology
and has the added capability to deliver high performance in harsh
applications where cyclic duty predominates.

Current Limit
In addition to the influence of charge voltage, the available charge
current will impact on time to repeat duty. The low internal resistance
of PowerSafe SBS EON Technology batteries lends itself to
absorption of in rush currents as high as 6C10 Amps but is equally
capable of operating with current limits as low as 0.1C10 Amps.
Figure 6 below illustrates the typical time to full state of charge
(2.40Vpc) as a function of available charge current from varying
depths of discharge.
