Alcad Solar storage batteries are purpose-built to operate in photovoltaic and other renewable energy applications.
Engine starting generator systems have not fundamentally changed over the years and are designed to give high reliability and long life.
It is, therefore, important that all the components in the application should be able to support these requirements and it is implicit that the starter battery is critical for the achievement of a successful system.
The engine starting web page on the Industrial Batteries (UK) site gives an overview of the application and has downloads of a more detailed explanation of the application and battery choice and an application questionnaire.
The questionnaire is designed to identify items such as the type of charging method, which can have a marked affect on the battery choice.
The company also offers, on request, a more detailed briefing note on the sizing considerations for engine starting batteries.
