Aquamatik water replenishment system Water replenishment system design > 3 m Water container Tap connection with ball cock Flow indicator Shut-off cock Locking coupling Battery lock connector...
Functional Description The Aquamatik water replenishment system is used to adjust the rated electrolyte level automatically on traction batteries for industrial trucks. The battery cells are interconnected through hoses and are attached to the water supply (e.g. water container) through a plug connection. When the shut-off cock is opened all the cells are filled with water.
Filling time The filling time for a battery depends on the electrolyte level, the ambient temperature and the filling pressure. Filling ends automatically. The water supply line must be disconnected from the battery when the water has been filled. Water quality The quality of the water used to fill up electrolyte must correspond to purified or distilled water.
Cleaning measures The plug systems must only be cleaned with purified water in accordance with DIN 43530-4. No parts of the plugs must come into contact with solvent-based materials or soap. 6.10 Service mobile vehicle Mobile water filling vehicle with pump and filling gun to fill individual cells. The immersion pump in the container generates the necessary filling pressure.
Electrolyte circulation Functional Description Electrolyte circulation ensures the supply of air during charging to mix the electrolyte, thereby preventing any acid layer, shortening the charge time (charge factor approx. 1.07) and reducing the formation of gas during charging. The charger must be suitable for the battery and electrolyte circulation.
Page 122
NOTE If an installed electrolyte circulation system is seldom used or not used at all, or if the battery is subjected to severe temperature fluctuations, the electrolyte may flow back into the hose system. Attach a separate coupling system to the air inlet line, such as: locking coupling on the battery side and through-coupling on the air supply side.
Cleaning batteries Batteries and trays must be cleaned in order to – maintain cell insulation and protect cells from ground or external conductive parts. – Avoid damage from corrosion and stray currents. – Avoid excessive and varying automatic discharge of the individual cells or block batteries due to stray currents.
Page 124
Cleaning the battery with a high pressure cleaner Requirements – Cell connectors tight, plugged in securely – Cell plugs closed Procedure • Follow the high pressure cleaner's user instructions. • Do not use any cleaning additives. • Observe the permissible cleaning device temperature setting of 140°C. This generally ensures that the temperature does not exceed 60°C at a distance of 30cm behind the outlet nozzle.
Storing the battery NOTE The battery should not be stored for longer than 3 months without charging as otherwise it will no longer be functional. If the battery is to be taken out of service for a long period, it should be stored fully charged in a dry room protected from frost.
