Saft to showcase energy solutions
A
Saft Industrial Batteries product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
Sep 5, 2008
Saft are to exhibit a range of energy solutions developed to meet the dynamic needs of the telecommunications industry.
Saft's main focus for the exhibition is on power backup systems that ensure maximum reliability and optimum total cost of ownership for the wide variety of remote or outdoor plants now playing a vital role in decentralised telecom networks.
Key technologies on show will include the Tel.X maintenance-free nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery together with the Intensium range of lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery systems.
Saft has developed Tel.X to offer advantages for demanding outdoor telecom applications in remote areas.
It is compact, light and takes around 15 minutes to install a 48V battery.
Tel.X offers a service life of more than 20 years in normal temperatures and more than 14 years at 40C.
In many cases the battery can be expected to outlive the installation, meaning it will not need topping up with water.
Tel.X offers volumic energy density of up to 100Wh/L.
It is designed for use in standard 19in and 23in racks and cabinets.
Tel.X offers performance over a temperature range of -20C to 40C and can withstand extremes from -50C to 70C.
Unlike valve regulated lead acid batteries often found in telecoms applications, the construction and engineered electrolyte used in Ni-Cd batteries mean they cannot not suffer from 'sudden death'.
Tel.X is suited for backup power applications in outdoor installations, such as cabinets and end terminals in fibre-optic triple-play networks, as well as BTS (Base Transceiver Station) and BSC (Base Station Controller) installations in wireless networks.
Intensium Li-ion batteries provide power and energy density in a compact, rack-mounted modular system.
The latest addition to the range is the second generation Intensium 1 Power Plus battery intended for short duration power backup, from 3 to 30 minutes.
It is suited to smaller, decentralised outdoor plant installations, required to support telecoms networks such as micro and macro BTS.
This Li-ion offers an anticipated 20-year life at 20C and a 10-year life at 40C.
The new batteries offer 30 per cent more power, with the maximum power increased from 3kW to 4kW.
As well as the standard 48V battery system, Intensium 1 Power Plus is now available in a 24V version.
