Alcad’s robust Ni-Cd pocket plate technology is particularly well suited to the complex requirements of installations in difficult and demanding conditions, and in remote and inaccessible locations. <Versatility for industry> Alcad Single Cell nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries offer the versatility to industry where reliable performance is crucial, even under extreme operating conditions, for example in :• Refineries • Power plants • Onshore and offshore oil & gas applications • Substations • Airports • Building infrastructure <Reliability for backup power application> If primary power sources fail, Alcad batteries enable your backup system to provide vital systems support to keep operations moving until primary power is restored or a controlled shutdown can be performed, including for : • UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) • Switching and transmission • Emergency and security • Industrial fire monitors and alarms • Process control • Substation switchgear • Signaling <Security for starting applications> For generator starting or switching on heaters, pumps and other essential equipment in an emergency, Alcad batteries meet the specific need for high discharge, instant voltage recovery and reliable operation, even in extreme temperatures. The LCE range has the thickest plates and is designed for applications where the battery is required to provide a reliable source of energy over relatively long discharge periods. Normally, the current is relatively low in omparison with the total stored energy and the discharges are generally infrequent. Typical uses are power backup, communications and bulk energy storage. Capacity range : 10 Ah – 375 Ah. <Standard layouts> Alcad has developed a series of standard layouts in which a battery may be ordered. Whether the battery is being installed on a rack, in a cabinet or is simply freestanding, the same configuration principles can be applied. Recommended charging voltage: For two level charge: • Float level: 1.42 ± 0.01 V/cell for LCE • High level: 1.47 - 1.70 V/cell for LCE, A high voltage will increase the speed and efficiency of the recharging. For single level charge: 1.43 - 1.50 V/cell.
