 Nickel-cadmium
alkaline pocket plate batteries for au applications where reliability
is of the utmost importance. Saft Nife batteries offer the advantages
of an all welded pocket plate design:
- outstanding resistance to electrical and mechanical abuse
- long service life
- very good charge retention
- operation over a wide temperature range
- minor maintenance demands
- long shelf life
Rate Discharge
Three type series SBH, SBM
and SBL with different performance characteristics and covering
a wide capacity range permit selection of a Saft Nife battery for
any application.

H Range
The H range uses very
thin plates and is designed for applications where there is
a demand for a relatively high current over short periods,
usually less than 30 minutes in duration. The applications
can have frequent or infrequent discharges. The range is typically
used in starting and power back up applications.

|
M Range
The M range is designed
for applications where the batteries are usually required
to sustain electrical loads for between 30 minutes to 3 hours
or for "mixed" loads which involve a mixture of
high and low discharge rates. The applications can have frequent
or infrequent discharges. The range is typically used in power
backup applications.

|
|
L Range
The L range has the thickest
plates and is designed for applications where the battery
is required to provide a reliable source of energy over relatively
long discharge periods. Normally, the current is relatively
low in comparison with the total stored energy and the discharges
are generally infrequent. Typical uses are power backup and
bulk energy storage.
