WELCOME

TO
A PRESENTATION
FROM
EXIDE
ON INVERTER BATTERIES

What is a battery ?
A BATTERY IS AN ARRAY OF
SIMILAR ELECTRICAL STORAGE
CELLS

What is an Electrical Storage Cell?

AN ELECTRICAL STORAGE CELL CONSISTS OF TWO DISSIMILAR
ELECTRODES IMMERSED IN AN ELECTROLYTE.
IT STORES ELECTRICAL ENERGY IN FORM OF CHEMICAL
ENERGY.
WHEN THE CIRCUIT IS MADE BETWEEN ITS POSITIVE &
NEGATIVE ELECTRODES, THERE IS A CHEMICAL
REACTION IN THE CELL AND IT DELIVERS ELECTRICITY
-DIRECT CURRENT (D.C) THROUGH THE CIRCUIT.

Classification of Lead Acid Battery

on the basis of Plate Construction
Positive Plates are of basically three types
Flat Pasted
Tubular
Plante

Negative Plates are always

Flat pasted type of construction

Why do we need three different types of

Positive Plates ?

Flat Pasted Plate

Antimonial Lead Alloy
Grid Structure on which
the Active Material is
pasted.
The grid also enables
conduction of electricity
THIN PASTED PLATES ARE EXCELLENT FOR
CRANKING APPLICATION (CAR)
THICKER PLATES WITH IMPROVISED DESIGN ARE
USED FOR STANDBY APPLICATION

Tubular Plate
ARMOURED PLATES WHICH RETAIN ACTIVE
MATERIAL (IN POWDER FORM) INSIDE THEM.

tubes

Advantages of Tubular Plate

1.

GAUNTLET TUBES ENSURE NO SHEDDING

2.

BETTER UTILISATION OF ACTIVE MATERIAL

3.

LOWER RATE OF CORROSSION OF THE SPINES SURROUNDED

BY ACTIVE MATERIAL

4,

BEST FOR CYCLING DUTY

5.

MOST ROBUST IN ABUSIVE SERVICE CONDITIONS LIKE HIGH

TEMPERATURE , FREQUENT DEEP DISCHARGES ETC.

Function of a Battery in
an Inverter
O

I
Converter

Inverter

Battery
THE MAIN FUNCTION OF THE BATTERY IS TO ENSURE
UNINTERRUPTED AND REGULATED POWER AT OUTPUT DURING
MAINS FAILURE OR DIP IN THE INPUT VOLTAGE

What do we expect from an Inverter

Battery?
Reliability
Zero or Low Maintenance
Abuse Resistant
Common Abuses - Frequent Deep Discharges
High Ambient Temperature
Irregular Maintenance
Long Life
Zero emission of gases
Low footprint
No Acid nuisance
Value for Money

What makes a battery Low

Maintenance?
Low Antimony Alloy
Microporous Ceramic vent Plug
Tall Container
higher acid head room
huge electrolyte reservoir

How Ceramic Vent Plug Works?

Pure Gas
ENSURES
LOW WATER
LOSS
EFFECTING
LESS
TOPPING-UP

Entrapped moisture
returns to cell

Ball relief valve

Escaping Gas
with Moisture

What makes a battery Abuse

Resistant?

Tubular Plate with special gauntlet tubes

Patented Active Material
Special Separators
High Volume of Electrolyte

What makes an Inverter battery

truly Maintenance Free?
VRLA Technology
(specially made for Indian Condition)

WHY EXIDE ?
We have a battery for every need
( And

, for any budget ... almost!!! )
