The Most Reliable
Post and Jar to Cover Seal
Design State of the Art Design
As an industrial battery ages, chemical corrosion causes the positive
plates to expand, placing pressure on the posts, the cover and the
seals. Excessive plate growth, which can be caused by high temperature
environments, will cause the positive plate to damage the cover and
seals, thus shortening the life of the battery. The XL design
eliminates this failure mode by removing stresses placed on the
seals and cover by forcing the growth away from the seal.
- The steel face plate eliminates stress
on cover, and improves heat dissipation through cover
- The post restraint spacer eliminates stress on post using the
face plate for support.
- Plate growth is forced away from the posts and cover seals.
- Additional space to accommodate the positive plate growth.
- Horizontal plate stacking improves heat dissipation through tray.
- High separator compression within the cell maintains plate to
separator contact, preventing capacity loss.
- Unique “S” wrap absorbed glass mat separator design prevents
positive (orange) plate to negative (gray) plate shorting.
- The XL post seal design eliminates the lead to lead bond with a
completely non-corrosive polypropylene to polypropylene bond – formed
by a fusion process that creates a bond as strong as, or stronger than
the original material.
- The interface between the lead post and the plastic sleeve is
coated with a viscous bonding agent which guarantees a leak free bond.
- The proven tongue and groove seal technology used on the jar to
cover seal improves seal strength and durability.
