What is sulphatation?

In theory, the chains of electrochemical reactions are 100% accurate. In practice, certain amounts of lead sulphate remain on the electrodes after each cycle. In other words, some active materials remain as PbSO4 after the charge. With the pass of time, this “AMORPHOUS” sulphate becomes a “CRYSTALLINE” sulphate. This crystalline sulphate cannot be reconverted into active material again, since it adheres to the surface of the plates; thus causing their “suffocation” and significantly reducing the surfaces of active material where electrochemical reactions take place.

What is battery restauration?

It is the recovery of the capacity of the battery to store electrochemical energy by breaking the crystalline sulphate down thanks to the electrical properties of EcoBattEnergy regenerators. These properties craze the crystals, reduce them and, consequently, the electrolyte density increases; thus, the internal resistance decreases and, finally, the battery is restored.

Which restauration systems are there in the market?

There are electrical and electrochemical systems. In any of these two cases, it becomes evident that it is necessary to break down the crystalline lead sulphate build-up to restore the battery.

What is the difference between an electrical system and a system which uses chimical additives?

An efficient electrical system is based on the application of electric power (high frequency) with a certain structure and in accordance with multiple factors which the software reads from the battery. It must be taken into account that there are electrical systems in the market which do not provide a certain electrical structure or give uncontrolled algorithms, so they are not useful or efficient to desulphate batteries. There are also other systems which, leaving aside their high price, are based on the use of chemical additives and whose general objective is to temporarily improve the conductivity of the batteries while they do not run down. However, they cannot break down the crystals.

Is it possible to measure the result of a restoration process?

Of course. The obtained restoration level must be measurable. In order to measure the results, two different methods can be used. The most accurate way is carried out with a discharger which allows you to measure the full discharge time of the battery (100%) before and after the process. The alternative method, which is generally applied to uninterruptible power batteries due to the fact that they cannot be disconnected, is carried out through an impedance test.

Why is EcoBatt Energy innovative compared to other options?

Ecobatt Energy battery regeneration equipment combines various effective methods of battery regeneration with integrated energy recovery into one single unit. About the technology: to achieve optimal results you need a correct voltage, current, time refresh rate and temperature. We do this through the computerised process: each battery is discharged and restored individually, depending on its condition and size, while maximum voltage pulses are adjusted in variable curves and cycles. The discharge process also varies in pulse-like minimum distances. It protects the batteries and prepares them for regeneration. These combinations and methods are unique and protected by worldwide patents. Depending on battery size, enormous currents and voltages are required, which can only be ensured by appropriately sized transformers. A special highlight is the return of energy during the discharge process. The energy consumption remains at the lowest level.

Can I obtain renewal and sulfate reduction using a special liquid?

Yes and no. The additives of cobalt, manganese and other substances is not new. It was commonly used during the 2nd World War on submarine batteries. The result is a release of the superficial sulfate build-up. The acid level is elevated to normal and the capacity somewhat increases. This effect occurs depending on the degree of sulfation and age of the battery after a short period of time. In addition, a contaminant remains in the electrolyte. Structural damage to the surface is not fixed and could even increase. Furthermore, the hard sulfate crystals do not dissolve completely, and they can cause further contamination and degradation of the battery. In the long term, silver and/or cobalt compounds cause irreversible damage to the battery.

Which type of batteries can be restored by applying the restauration systems offered by EcoBatt Energy Cambodia?

Yes. Battery desulfation can improve batteries that are between 1-2 years old, as sulfation occurs from the moment a battery is made. Batteries that have gone through the regeneration process hold and deliver their capacity constant at a 90-100% level, over a period of 8-10 years.

Can all batteries be restored?

It is not possible to restore a battery which has suffered structural damage, electrolyte reduction caused by electrolysis, corrosion or short-circuits on the plates or loss of the active materials of the electrodes.

How long can the life of a battery be extended for?

It depends on the initial state of the battery. If an annual restoration schedule is applied, the service life of the battery can be doubled or even tripled.

Is battery restoration worth it?

Without any doubt. Just think about the huge saving with regard to the avoidance of purchasing new batteries, the reduction in your energy bill or the elimination of technical problems and unexpected maintenance related costs.

How can battery restoration help the environment?

As the number of used batteries increases, the amount of batteries being disposed also increases. Extending their service life helps to reduce the consumption of heavy metals which are highly polluting. The auxiliary materials used for the manufacture of batteries fall within the category of highly toxic second-degree waste, since they cannot be completely reused. For all these reasons, battery restoration means a significant contribution to the protection and the improvement of the environment.

How to take advantage of battery regeneration service?

Is regular and time-consuming in-house battery maintenance difficult or impossible? This does not mean having to miss out on the numerous advantages of well-maintained lead-acid batteries:

• long life
• reliable performance
• less costs
• fewer new purchases environmentally friendly

Take advantage of our battery maintenance service. We offer a reliable battery maintenance service according to specified test cycles with precise documentation. This battery maintenance service is recommended in particular for batteries subject to high repetitive loads and to provide a reliable emergency power supply.
This ensures that batteries function correctly and failures due to a lack of battery power are prevented. Our experienced service engineers regularly measure battery capacities. The measured values are carefully collected and documented. If EcooBatt Energy engineers should notice any deviations or deterioration of the battery, regeneration is carried out professionally, the battery values are measured again and proof of the success of battery regeneration provided.
