Did You Know? Switch Mode Rectifiers, Calculating Float Voltage & C-Rates
Switch Mode Rectifiers The most common technology in use today for stationary battery charging is the Switch Mode Rectifier (SMR). They offer a higher efficiency and are smaller and lighter than the legacy Ferro Resonant and Silicone Controlled Rectifier (SCR) types. More importantly, they are easily field-swappable. Did you know that the SMR was first invented 110 years ago and was a ...

UPS
The function of the supercapacitor ups is often determined in the first few seconds to a few minutes after the power failure or the instantaneous collapse of the grid voltage. The battery needs to provide power during this period. The shortcomings of the battery itself need regular maintenance and short life, so that the UPS is running. It is necessary to always check the state of the battery. In ...

“Sealed Maintenance-Free” Batteries. What a Myth!
The term “Sealed Maintenance-Free,” in my opinion, is a marketing-driven term. In the early 1980’s, when telephone Private Branch Exchanges (PBX’s) were being deployed into customer premises, computer mainframes were migrating out of dedicated computer rooms, and smaller computers were being situated in occupied office space. Consequently, users were demanding that the ...

Optimal scheduling and operation of hybrid biomass/wind/PV energy system for rural areas
In this paper, a hybrid energy system consisting of biomass, wind, solar photovoltaic (SPV) and battery, is proposed. The sources are operated to deliver energy at optimum efficiency. An optimisation model is developed to supply the available energy to the loads according to the priority. It is also proposed to maintain a fair level of energy storage to meet the peak load demand together with ...
