IBLUK Publishes Leaflet On Battery Life
Industrial Batteries UK (IBLUK) has produced a leaflet on the observations necessary to evaluate how long a battery can be expected to perform reliably.
The document outlines the main factors involved and the type of change to look for, including: assessing whether the installed system is the best option to give optimum life; examining the maintenance procedures to ensure they obtain the best service from the installation; checking that the charging system is compatible with the complete installation, and whether modifications are required; carrying out an 'expected life' survey to establish the actual age of the battery, the health of the battery and the real expected life under the actual application conditions.
The leaflet goes on to outline the items that are important in evaluating the application conditions, and what to look for in a battery inspection. In addition, IBLUK provides a number of related documents concerning battery maintenance, disposal and recycling, and general technical information, all of which can be downloaded from the company website.
