🔋 Product Description
KPL Series nickel cadmium batteries are designed for general industrial applications where absolute reliability is a necessity. Service-proven pocket-plate technology ensures long uninterrupted battery life without the risk of sudden loss of power. KPL Series batteries are suitable for low discharge rate applications (between 1 hour to 100 hours) such as railroad signaling and control systems, photovoltaic, emergency lighting, telecommunications, etc.
In many applications along the track, batteries are used to meet peak electricity demand and to provide back-up power to all systems in case of emergency. These batteries must meet a range of demanding requirements:
- Complete reliability over a long, predictable lifetime.
- Excellent electrical performance and high resistance to electrical and mechanical abuse.
- Operation in ambient temperatures from -30°C (-22°F) to +40°C (+104°F), with extremes from -40°C to +55°C.
- Minimal maintenance needs.
- Capable of operating with renewable energy sources.
Only nickel-cadmium technology can meet these requirements cost-effectively.
