Aquamatic/BFS Water Filling System
Battery Filling System
During the operation of traction batteries, water loss occurs mainly due to electrolysis during the final phase of charging, which causes the formation of hydrogen and oxygen. This water loss needs to be replenished in the battery cells to restore the appropriate electrolyte level and specific gravity. This can be done using a central or point water refilling system. The plugs of all cells are connected in series or series/parallel through a piping system. Water is supplied to the cells from a central tank by gravity, vacuum, or pressure, depending on the plug design. When the electrolyte level in each cell reaches the proper value, the water supply to the cells is stopped. This is done in various ways, depending on the plug design. The plug is equipped with a float that closes the water inlet valve when the electrolyte reaches the required level. Gases are vented from each cell through an opening in the plug.
Features:
- automatically set electrolyte level
- electrolyte level indicator
- single-point water connection
- simultaneous refilling in all cells
- independent gas venting system
PVC piping system
Advantages:
- quick and easy level refilling
- reduced water loss
- fewer actions required for electrolyte refilling
- reduced risk of electrolyte spilling into the battery box
- no corrosion on the battery surface
no contact between humans and the environment with electrolyte
Benefits:
- low daily maintenance costs
- lower operating costs
- reduced expenses for battery servicing
