Pocket type alkaline batteries are invented in Sweden, since it was industrialized, and is put to practical use in each country, and the battery has been widely used.
That is because that pocket type alkaline batteries has very high reliability, maintenance and handling of these are easy.
Since our company began domestic production of pocket type alkaline storage batteries at 1953, these batteries are widely used as stand-by power supply of emergency lighting, operation for the equipment of power station, engine starting and computer for various field, and we get the reliability from customers.
Feature
- ・High reliability
- As batteries are manufactured by automatic electrode production facilities, these have high reliability electrochemically and mechanically. Since these batteries meet the global standard, these are exported abroad to many countries.
- ・Excellent Low-temperature characteristics
- Low-temperature characteristics are more excellent than the other batteries. Rate of decrease of battery capacity is very low and batteries are used on wide range of temperature.
- ・Many models
- As there are many types of battery capacity from 10Ah to 1000Ah, batteries are selected economically for wide range of load condition.
- ・Long life and economical
- Because there is little deterioration even if the battery is used for a long term, life of it is long. And since maintenance of battery is easy to perform, it is economical.
- ・No corrosive gases generated
- Since the electrolyte of battery is potassium hydroxide solution, there is no corrosive gas generated. So this battery is suitable for one structure with rectifier.
- ・Minimum maintenance
- There are few change of the specific gravity of electrolyte. As the tolerance of specific gravity is wide, measurement of the S.G. is once a year. Since the container of battery is transparent plastic, it is easy for check of the electrolyte level.
