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. If the discharge current is larger, the discharge
capacity will be smaller.
4.2.1.
Discharge Characteristics
The final voltage is based on the discharge current and the minimum allowed by the system
setup.
