ElectroGel 3000 (EG3000)
Environment Friendly Silicone Gel Battery Additive for Lead Acid Batteries
ElectrolGel 3000 is developed by innovative advanced technology. It is a very efficient lead acid battery additive for industrial battery, especially forklift batteries and other deep cycle industrial batteries. The main functions of EG3000 are as follows:
REMOVE SULPHATION
Sulphation is the main cause of battery failure. EG3000 is able to eliminate "irreversible" sulphated compound on battery plates and prevent sulphaton.
INCREASE CAPACITY
By removing sulphation, EG3000 can repair and improve conductivity of battery plates. The lost capacity can be recovered effectively by charging.
EMERGENCY ENGINE STARTING
When battery output power is just below the starting capability due to sulphation build up, additing of EG3000 can increase current output and it may start up the vehicle when it is needed.
EXTEND BATTERY LIFE
ElectroGel 3000 extends battery life by removing and preventing sulphation build up.
REVIVE DEAD SULPHATED BATTERY
ElectroGel 3000 can revive condemned and sulphated battery, by removing sulphation, increase specific gravity (S.G.) of electrolyte, improve battery chemical reaction and improve charging efficiency.
HIGHER POWER OUTPUT
By removing sulphation and improving conductivity, battery with EG3000 will have higher power output or higher cranking current.
REDUCE FUEL AND POWER CONSUMPTION
EG3000 enhances batteries' charging efficiency. Lesser charging time means lower fuel and power consumption.
METHOD AND PROCEDURE TO RECOVER USED/SULPHATED/WEAK LEAD ACID TRACTION BATTERIES
(Especially for forklift or traction batteries)
1) Add EG3000 (allow at least 2 to 6 hours reaction time for better result)
Remove some electrolyte before adding EG3000 if necessary. Add equal amount of EG3000 (shake well before use) into each cell (100cc to 500cc per cell depends on AH). Allow chemical reaction to complete in battery for 2 to 6 hours depend on battery size. Do not allow EG3000 to contact with water, metal or nylon before application. Do not over fill to prevent electrolyte spilling during charging.
2) Slow Charging of Battery
Fully charge up battery using low constant current (2% - 5% of AH capacity, e.g. not more than 5Amp charging current for 100AH battery) charging.
3) Slow Discharge
Slowly discharge battery with not more than 10% current of AH capacity till voltage decrease 12.5% (e.g. to 1.75V from 2V, to 10.5V from 12V, to 31.5V from 36V, to 42V from 48V). Calculate battery capacity (Amp x Hrs = AH) if necessary.
4) Add EG3000 If Necessary
If the capacity does not increase more than 10%, or load test fail, add EG3000 again to each cell accordingly.
5) Repeat step (2) and (3) for Another Two Cycles
Charge & discharge the battery using low current for another 2 cycles (total 3 cycles of processing). The capacity of battery will increase gradually up to 30% or more.
6) Charge Up Battery, Check Voltage, S.G. & Load Test
After charging, voltage of battery should not be less than 2.0 volts per cell, S.G. should not fall below 1.23 or 1.25 for starter or traction battery respectively. Load test voltage should not drop more than 12.5% (e.g. 10.5V & above for 12V battery, 1.75V for 2V battery).
If voltage, S.G. or load test failed, you may want to reject the battery for recovery servicing, or, you may replace the entire acid (S.G. 1.28 for forklift battery) in the battery/cell, add the same amount of EG3000 into each cell, repeat step (2) and (3), check battery quality again.
7) Ready For Delivery/Use
Clean the accepted battery, label & record date of processing; the battery is ready for delivery/Use. You may skip steps (4) to (6) for good or slightly sulphated battery.
8) Charge Before Use
After installing the re-conditioned traction batteries into machine, charge the battery accordingly before application. The battery capacity will increase gradually as usage increase.
