Page 12: Operation
4. Operation 4.1. Charging KiloVault 2100 PLC batteries are usually charged using a three-stage charging cycle: bulk, absorption, and float stages. Bulk is a constant-current stage. The purpose of the bulk stage is to raise the battery voltage to a relatively high level with an initial fast charge. Absorption is a constant voltage stage. -
Page 13: Temperature Compensation
4.1.2. Temperature Compensation To achieve longer battery life, compensate for temperatures above or below 77°F (25°C). For KiloVault 2100 PLC batteries we recommend -30mV/°C (-5mV/cell/°C). 4.2. Discharging Battery capacity depends on the discharge current or discharge rate. If the discharge current is smaller, the discharge capacity will be larger. -
Page 14: Discharge Temperature Characteristics
Stored batteries will need to be recharged to recover from self-discharge. The rate of self- discharge increases as the temperature increases. Figure 8: Self-Discharge Curves 14 of 18 Revision 1.04 KiloVault LLC • 330 Codman Hill Road, Boxborough, MA 01719 • +1 (888) 218-5924 • info@kilovault.com • www.kilovault.com ®... -
Page 15: Recharging
Generally speaking, lead sulfate will be produced on the battery negative plate when they are stored for a long time. KiloVault® 2100 PLC batteries can be stored for up to 24 months. Because lead sulfate is an electrical insulator, it negatively affects the performance of the battery. We recommend the following recharge schedule based on storage temperatures. -
