Audience
This guide is for use by qualified personnel who meet all local and governmental
code requirements for licensing and training for the installation of batteries and
related products. The installer should be familiar with battery test procedures.
Be sure to review carefully and identify potential safety risks before proceeding.
The installer must be familiar with all features and functions of this battery before
proceeding. Failure to install or use this battery as instructed can result in
damage to the battery that may not be covered under the limited warranty.
Product
The EnergyCell
™
TT is a series of top-terminal 12 Vdc valve-regulated lead-acid
(VRLA) absorbed glass-mat (AGM) batteries. These batteries are for backup or
light duty cycling applications.
Storage
o
All lead-acid batteries experience self-discharge while in storage. This
causes circuit voltage and capacity to decrease.
o
The self-discharge rate is related to ambient temperature. The lower the
temperature, the lower the discharge rate. Batteries should be stored in
a clean, ventilated, and dry location with an ambient temperature of
32°F to 77°F (0°C to 25°C).
o
It is important to track open-circuit voltage (OCV) when batteries are
disconnected. If OCV i
s lower than 12.6V or the batteries have been stored
beyond the limits shown in the
Storage Time vs. Temperature
graph, t
he
batteries should be charged to avoid damage caused by self-discharge.
o
Recharge at 14.4 Vdc for 12 hours prior to battery reaching 12.6 Vdc.
o
All batteries should be fully charged before storage. Record the storage
date and next supplemental charge date in a maintenance record and
on the battery. See the voltage log on the next sheet.
o
Upon battery deployment, verify that all batteries within each string measure
in the range of +/- 0.3 Vdc of the string average while in "float" charger mode.
Capacity
The battery’s actual capacity is influenced by temperature, depth of discharge,
discharge rate, and the resulting voltage.
o
The higher the discharge rate, the lower the available capacity.
o
The available capacity is also reduced as batteries become colder. This is
related to the internal electrochemical reactions and the resistivity of the
electrolyte. It is depicted in the
Capacity vs. Temperature
graph.
Note that battery cycle life is also affected by depth of discharge, as shown in the
Cycle Life
graph.
Operating Conditions
EnergyCell TT batteries are valve-regulated and sealed. They do not give off
perceptible amounts of gas under normal operating conditions.
o
Operating temperature range (ambient): –40°F to 140°F (–40°C to 60°C)
o
Optimal operating temperature (ambient): 68°F to 77°F (20°F to 25°F)
o
Ambient humidity:

NOTE:
Although the battery can operate at
temperatures below –4°F (–20°C),
the capacity and ability to discharge
will be dramatically decreased.
