Ventilation Design and Installation
When batteries are being charged, towards the end of the charging cycle they start to produce gas. This gas is a mixture of Hydrogen and Oxygen. In order to keep the area where batteries are charged safe, the Hydrogen concentration should be kept below a 4% concentration. However, in order to build in a factor of safety many battery manufacturers recommend ventilating to keep the concentration below 1%. Total Battery Management can design, build and install ventilation systems to achieve this for you.
- Custom designed systems can be provided for use with rack stored batteries especially suitable for multi level systems. This type of ventilation removes the gasses near to source.
- Background ventilation systems can be provided where batteries are charged around the perimeter of a room such as in manual change systems or park and charge where batteries stay on the trucks for charge
- Bifurcated fans are used in these ventilation systems so that the fan drive motor is external to the gasses being ventilated , thus removing any risk of any arcing from the motor coming into contact with the gasses being ventilated
- Total Battery Management ventilation systems are designed not only to ventilate gasses from the area but also to remove the risk of any unpleasant smells from the gasses lingering in the room.
- The ventilation system will also remove any acid mist contamination from the room.
