General:
The purpose of this manual is to inform installers how to receive, install and maintain C&D Technologies front
access batteries.
Battery Description:
The Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) battery is a minimal maintenance system utilizing an oxygen
recombination cycle to minimize gassing and eliminate electrolyte maintenance. The dilute sulfuric acid
electrolyte is immobilized by absorbent glass mat (AGM) separators. Each of the 2 VDC cells (6 cells per
unit) in each unit has a unique self-resealing one way valve to relieve any excess pressure generated
during overcharging conditions. Four six cell units in series make up a 24 cell 48VDC battery, two six cell
units in series for a 12 cell 24VDC applications.
See Section IV.
