    Introduction the voltage should be increased by 2 mV/cell/°C. The graph below shows values for an individual cell. UPS batteries from NorthStar Battery (NSB) Compa- ny provide excellent high-rate discharge and recharge performance for mission critical applications. Ab- sorbed-Glass-Microfibre (AGM) technology is utilized, which means the electrolyte is fully absorbed in a very fine glass mat.

    The table above shows the time needed to recharge Ripple Current following a 100% DOD cycle, depending on the maximum charge current available. If the DOD is less Unacceptable levels or ripple current from the charger than 100%, the total recharge time will be less. To or the load can have a major impact on battery internal prevent overcharge, the duration from T1 to T2 (i.e.
