Unbiased battery comparison software!
Saft's new free software compares within seconds the suitability of different types of industrial batteries according to user-defined criteria - and it doesn't always recommend Saft's own batteries.
Credit Suisse changes to nickel-cadmium batteries
Credit Suisse Group, the global banking and insurance group, has become the first major bank to adopt nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries to guarantee the power supply to critical computer systems.
The new website can be accessed either under the stationary battery section of the Saft website or by going direct to www.saftsales.com.
The user is prompted to select their location and is then offered two options: to select a battery directly from a list of eight sizes from 45Ah/12V to 91-130Ah/24V; or to provide selection criteria such as starter voltage, engine displacement, oil temperature, battery temperature and cranking time which will enable Saft to size the battery online on their behalf.
The website provides an instant recommendation for a battery from Saft's SPH range which is designed specifically for applications demanding relatively high current over short periods such as engine starting, with the advantages of high reliability, mechanical and electrical robustness and a 20-year service life.
In addition to identifying the optimum battery, the Saft site also supplies comprehensive physical and electrical data and a battery layout.
A net price including delivery is also provided for customers in the USA who can then proceed to order their battery online.
Customers outside the USA are prompted at this point to either e-mail or fax Saft with their selection to request a quote. Request a free brochure from Saft Industrial Batteries ...
