Topping up is taken down
August 1st 2008 The new Hawker Water
Less motive power
batteries from EnerSys
allow extended periods
between topping up –
between 4 and 13 weeks.
The company says this
produces a reduction in
battery maintenance
labour of between 60%
and 75%.
Providing a high level of
power for all industrial
traction applications, the
Water Less uses PzS
technology and advanced
components. The battery
has a reduced prism
height and new flip top
plugs. It possesses a larger
electrolyte capacity and
has an electrolyte level
indicator fitted as
standard to inform the
user when topping up
with water is necessary.
Hawker Water Less
batteries are suitable for
all applications and can be
recharged with both 50
Hz and HF chargers. A
period between topping
up of 4 weeks is
achievable when used
with 50 Hz chargers.
If charged with Hawker
HF technology, topping up
is approximately 8 weeks.
Additional savings are
made with reduced
electricity costs and less
water. When used in
conjunction with Hawker
HF chargers and
electrolyte circulation
technology, a 13 week
period between topping is
achievable. More articles from Enersys Ltd: |
