Pocket Plate Technology
NBLE Range
L type is designed for applications where the battery is required to provide
- a reliable source of energy over relatively long discharge periods
- a current that is relatively low in comparison with the total stored energy
- discharges are generally infrequent
The typical discharge range is from 1 hour to 100 hours. Typical uses are power back-up and bulk energy storage.
NBM Range
M type is designed for applications where the batteries are usually required to sustain:
- electrical loads for between 30 minutes to 3 hours
- "mixed" loads involving a mixture of high and low discharge rates
- frequent or infrequent discharges
The typical discharge range is from 15 minutes to 2 hours. Typical uses are in power back-up applications.
NBH Range
H type is designed for applications demanding
- a relatively high current over short periods
- usually less than 30 min duration
- the applications can have frequent or infrequent discharges.
The typical discharge range is from 1 second to 30 minutes. Typical uses are in starting and power back-up applications.
