13 DESCRIPTION OF COMPONENT

The Type B range of lead acid traction cells are designated by the manufacturer as IEC 254-2 Series E cells. Each cell is 158 mm wide and has 2 to 12 positive plates terminated on two or four terminal posts. Connection to the terminal posts may be by the use one of the following methods:

• Sealed post terminals, welded, with insulating covers. • Induction welded terminals with encapsulated caps. • Female threaded inserts with insulated bolt heads. • Female threaded inserts incorporating insulated caps. • Male threaded inserts with insulated anti-vibration locknuts. • An alternative solid link cell connector for those batteries where no movement of the cell is possible

after installation. • An alternative cell connector where the end of the connecting cable is welded to a copper strip to

form a termination, which is then fastened to the cell terminal post by a threaded fastener.

Vent plugs are fitted to the top of the cell casing and may be a flip-top type or a type having an indicator/float arrangement. The cell is topped up in a non-hazardous area. An air mixing tube is also provided for use during charging of the cell, which is also an operation carried out in a non-hazardous area.

The range of Traction Batteries comprise fabricated mild steel containers in which a range of increased safety, lead-acid cells are arranged. The batteries are manufactured with a power up to 68.8 kWh and a nominal voltage up to 400 V.

The containers utilise louvered and baffled ventilation slots to prevent the evolution of explosive concentrations of hydrogen and oxygen within the container’s internal free volume. A large number of different configurations and shapes may be manufactured, within the limits described on the manufacturer’s specification drawings.

The type designation code is made up of the following:

• No of cells and battery type reference • No of terminals (single or double post) • Number of positive plates • Cell type • Capacity per positive plate

The minimum ventilation ratios of the battery containers are:

• Battery container top vents = 850 mm2/kWh • Battery container side vents = 1320 mm2/kWh

The battery container is fitted with a suitably certified cable gland to protect the cable that is fitted between the battery and attached apparatus. Alternatively, a rubber grommet and a suitably certified intermediate terminal box may be fitted.

There is also the option to fit a suitably certified increased safety enclosure with a flameproof socket to the side of the battery enclosure, located where the connecting cables exit the enclosure.

13 DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT

The range of Traction Batteries with not greater than 153.6 KWh comprise fabricated mild steel containers in which a range of increased safety, lead-acid cells are arranged. The batteries are manufactured with a nominal voltage up to 400 V.

The containers utilise louvered and baffled ventilation slots in their sides, to prevent the evolution of explosive concentrations of hydrogen and oxygen within the containers internal free volume. A large number of different configurations and shapes may be manufactured, within the limits described on the manufacturer’s specification drawings.

The type designation code is made up of the following:

• No of cells and battery type reference • No of terminals (single or double post) • Number of positive plates • Cell type • Capacity per positive plate

The minimum ventilation to capacity ratio of the battery containers are 2526 mm2/kWh. One side of the enclosure may be closed off when installed, provided this does not exceed 27.8% of the available louver length.

The battery container is fitted with a suitably certified cable gland to protect the cable that is fitted between the battery and attached apparatus. Alternatively a rubber grommet and a suitably certified intermediate terminal box may be fitted.

There is also the option to fit a suitably certified increased safety enclosure with a flameproof socket to the side of the battery enclosure, located where the connecting cables exit the enclosure. The particular assembly that is fitted is not specifically identified as part of the battery certification.
