Ten taboos on the use of UPS batteries


1, Not regularly check the height of the electrolyte level

In the process of battery use, the electrolyte level is reduced due to water evaporation and solution overflow.This is easy to expose the plate to the air, resulting in reduced capacitance and plate vulcanization.Therefore, they must be checked regularly.The liquid level should be 10-15 mm higher than the plate, if not enough, distilled water should be added, such as electrolyte overflow.The electrolyte with the same specific gravity should be added.

2, do not pay attention to keep the battery surface clean and dry

There is dirt on the plate, easy to cause short circuit between plates.To cause the battery to discharge itself.Therefore, it is necessary to often remove the dirt on the surface and the oxide on the plate, and prevent the dirty water from flowing into it.

3, do not adjust the proportion of electrolyte in time

The battery in the process of charging and discharging, the electrolyte will become thick or thin, so when checking the specific gravity of the electrolyte, you can know the battery storage degree.When the specific gravity is less than 1.18, it should be charged in time.In order to avoid a sharp voltage drop, shorten the life of the battery.The specific gravity of electrolyte should be adjusted in different seasons.Because the temperature of the electrolyte will reduce the capacitance of the battery, so in winter to suck out part of the electrolyte, add more than some significant electrolyte, so that the proportion of the increase;After spring, part of the electrolyte should be sucked out in time.Add an appropriate amount of distilled water to reduce the specific gravity.

4, electrolyte is not pure

If you use industrial sulfuric acid instead of chemical sulfuric acid.Use tap water or river water instead of distilled water into the battery, will cause self-discharge.Shorten the service life of battery.

5. Don't pay attention to the ventilation and dredge of the filling mouth cover

If the vent hole is blocked, the gas produced in the charging process cannot escape.It can even cause the battery to explode itself.Therefore, the air vent must be kept open.

6. Overcharging

Charging will cause the battery to overheat, resulting in a large amount of water consumption, positive expansion, bending.Active material fall off, plate early corrosion, shell deformation, cracking and sealant overflow, so in order to avoid overcharging the battery, must often check the regulator throttle pressure device data, so that it is maintained within the specified range.

7, with the "tank fire" and other incorrect methods to check the battery storage situation

If you check it this way.Easy to damage the battery.

8, starting engine time is too long and continuous starting

When starting the engine, if the starting time is more than 5 seconds, it is easy to burn out the starter. If it is started continuously for many times, it not only consumes large power.And the plate is easily deformed.Therefore, each start shall not exceed 5 seconds, a start is not, should be an interval of 1-2 minutes after starting, continuous start generally not more than 3 times.

9. Do not maintain the batteries that have been out of service for a long time

The battery has been out of service for a long time without maintenance.The plate is easy to vulcanize and shorten the service life of the battery.Correct way is: when tractor or agricultural transport car does not work for a longer time, want to take down accumulator, after sufficient electricity, put in indoor custody, after every two months charge electricity again.

10. Never pay attention to ammeter readings

When the electrical equipment is not using electricity, if the battery is found to discharge, the ammeter points to "one" value.The cause of the fault must be found out and corrected immediately, otherwise it will shorten its service life
