5.3. Discharge
5.3.1. Discharge current
The maximum current in
continuous discharge is 2 C
5
A.
If necessary, the monoblocks must
be cooled to limit heating
(electrolyte temperature < + 60°C).
Peak discharges of short duration,
less than or equal to 10 sec, up
to a current of 5 C
5
A are
permitted according to the state
of charge and the minimum
acceptable voltage of the
monoblocks.
5.3.2. Voltage in discharge
The voltage level during
discharge depends on the
current drawn on the battery,
and the temperature.
The rated capacity of STM
monoblocks is set at + 20°C
for an end voltage of 5 V.
In practice, STM monoblocks can
be very deeply discharged.
Occasional polarity inversion will
not harm the monoblocks.
However, this polarity inversion
must remain exceptional to avoid
water consumption not taken into
account by topping-up.
