Flooded Lead Acid batteries are the most common batteries used in energy systems because of their price, local availability, and ease of recycling. A properly maintained lead acid cell will last about five years. This type of battery will deliver about 1000 full charge-discharge cycles.
A deep cycle battery is designed to provide a steady amount of current over a long period of time. A deep cycle battery can provide a surge when needed. A deep cycle battery is also designed to be deeply discharged over and over again. To accomplish this, a deep cycle battery uses thicker plates. Deep cycle batteries are designed to be discharged down as much as 80% time after time. Luminous Batteries have specially designed deep-cycle cells that are much less susceptible to degradation due to cycling, and are required for applications where the batteries are regularly discharged, such as photovoltaic systems, electric vehicles (forklift, golf cart, electric cars and other) and uninterruptible power supplies. These batteries have thicker plates that can deliver less peak current, but can withstand frequent discharging.
Features:
Extra thick plates ensure long life
Special alloy used – very low maintenance
Inter partition connection-good voltage profile on discharge
Sleek appearance in sealed plastic housing
Good charge acceptance – suitable for frequent power cuts
Level indicators aid easy maintenance
Application:
These batteries are best suitable for high ambient temperature and partial state of charge usage, they are used in various applications like domestic inverters, off grid solar photo voltaic system, home lighting systems, alarm systems, signaling equipments and remote telecom units.
The Key Advantages:
Medium to very long service life - ranging from 2.5 - 4 years for Deep Cycle design and up to 7 - 10 years for ultra Deep Cycle Tubular design. Depending on depth of discharge, frequency of cycling and battery temperatures.
Compact size with high specific energy. Accomplished by special design of plates containers and separators.
Very low water topping up frequency. Special alloy plates cause LOW or NO water loss from battery.
Better Design: Better Performance
Thick flat pasted plates with selenium grids and automated vapour; curing process generates suitable proportion of binding crystals in the plates
The Result
Much longer cycle life that most of the flat plate batteries in the world. A cycle life of over 500 - 600 cycles under deep discharge conditions is delivered.
