NCFP Batteries
Nickel Cadmium Fibre Plate Batteries

HBL Nickel Cadmium Fibre plate technology uses active material free from graphite and iron. Elimination of these elements ensures that the electrolyte does not get carbonated and reduces water consumption.

Nickel Cadmium Fibre electrode batteries may be seen as 3rd generation (1980’s) technology. Pocket plate is 1st generation (1919’s) and Sintered Plate is 2nd generation (1950’s). The Fibre Electrode Technology has been provided by DAUG, Germany (research venture of Mercedes Benz & Volkswagen).
The Nickel Fibre matrix used for the fibre plate allows 90% of the electrode volume for holding the active material. The open three dimensional fibre structure also provides good conductivity to ensure excellent electrical performance.
Nickel Cadmium Fibre plate technology uses active material free from graphite and iron. Elimination of these elements ensures that the electrolyte does not get carbonated and reduces water consumption.
The elastic nature of NCFP electrode enables it to absorb greater shock and vibration stresses. This includes volume changes during charge and discharge cycles, hence the battery can give more number of cycles compared to other battery technologies. The NCFP technology is considerably lighter in weight and hence has high energy density.
Fibre Plate batteries are manufactured in 4 series (X, H, M and L) based on their performance capabilities. The X series have very thin plates for ultra high rate discharge performance. The H series have thin plates for excellent high rate discharge performance. The L series have thick plates to provide long duration, low current discharge performance. The M series have an optimized plate thickness which is ideal for medium discharge performance and durations.
The wide range of Nickel Cadmium Fibre Plate batteries are available in tough, fusion-welded polypropylene cell containers and lids. When placed on multi-step battery racks, the electrolyte level in all the cells can be visually monitored to facilitate maintenance. For special requirements, the containers can be offered in flame-retardant polypropylene, structural foam-moulded polypropylene or stainless steel.
The batteries are supplied with all related hardware and racks are offered as an option.
