Abstract :
Sealed lead-acid cells, employing gas recombination, have been specially designed for standby applications. The basic principles of design are outlined. The discharge and charge characteristics of a recombination 6V monobloc at rates varying from 5 minutes to 5 hours are given, together with data on the effect of temperature on performance. The advantages of recombination cells over traditional Planté, flat plate and tubular cells for standby applications are identified.
