USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Pag. 6 di 16 FHP SERIES BATTERIES 2. Technical features Capacities and influencing factors: Battery capacity The unit of measurement for capacity is ampere hours, abbreviated as Ah. Capacity can be expressed in terms of nominal capacity or actual capacity. Actual capacity is the product of the discharge current times the actual discharge time, the unit is Ah. - Page 7 USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Pag. 7 di 16 FHP SERIES BATTERIES Temperature Temperature affects battery capacity. Fig. 3 is the available capacity curve as a function of the ambient temperature. If the ambient temperature is not 20°C, you need to change the measured capacity to with the actual capacity at 20°C according to the following formula:...
