DESULPHATION OF LEAD ACID BATTERIES EMPLOYING HIGH CURRENT PULSATING TECHNIQUE

Abstract

This article investigates experimentally the relifing of Lead Acid Batteries and compares the results with the conventional systems. Experimental investigations are conducted to increase the lifespan of the battery up to 2 times from the long-term performance tests. Reversing the effects is considered highly unlikely, by applying pulses to battery terminals to prevent and reverse Sulphation on a healthy battery, they will not reverse the damage completely and are not always recommended. High Freq Ultrasonic Pulses will be generated on the Battery Terminals to clean sulphate with High Amplitude Pulse generation carrying large amount of current. The treatment cycle of Battery De-Sulphation is done in total 3 cycles (De-Sulphation, Charging and Discharging). By repeating these 3 cycles the capacity time of the battery in the Discharge cycle increases 2 times the life of the battery from 80 to 85%
