Terminal Detail

Features
- Sealed Maintenance Free
Valve regulated, spill proof construction allows trouble free, safe operation and is recommended to be installed on its base. The sealed system eliminates electrolyte checking and water addition. The gases generated are recombined internally during normal use. - Shelf Life and Storage
Special vents, high purity lead and grid alloys assure a low self-discharge rate and consequently a long shelf life.
Lower storage temperatures enhance shelf life characteristics even further. - Standby Use
The float service life, or life expectancy under continuous float charge at 2.25vpc at 20 deg is 10-12 years. - Design Flexibility
Batteries may be used in series and/or parallel to give you a choice of voltage and capacity - Compact Design
Power -Sonic batteries utilise state of the art design, highest grade materials, and a carefully controlled plate making process to provide excellent output per cell. - Designed-in Reliability
Cutting edge manufacturing and process control combined with strict quality assurance procedures guarantee consistent and dependable performance. - Grids/Plates
Grids of high quality Lead/Ca/Tin alloy pasted to provide consistent high quality plates. - Wide Operating Temperature Range
Charge -15 to 50° C
Discharge -15 to 60° C
Storage -20° to + 50° C (in fully charged condition)
Electrical Characteristics
