Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document introduces the Changhong pocket type nickel cadmium rechargeable battery, emphasizing its reliability, long lifespan, and low maintenance requirements. Produced by Sichuan Changhong Battery Co., Ltd., these batteries are exported to over 40 countries, showcasing the company's expertise in R&D, manufacturing, and servicing.
Product Types
The batteries are classified into three categories based on discharge rates: low (KPL), medium (KPM), and high (KPH), each tailored for specific applications depending on discharging current needs.
Structure Characteristics
The batteries boast a robust design with components such as flip-top vents, cell containers, plate group buses, and terminal poles made from durable materials like polypropylene and nickel-plated steel. The plates, composed of nickel hydroxide and cadmium oxide, ensure high mechanical strength and conductivity.
Electrolyte and Venting System
The electrolyte consists of a potassium and lithium hydroxide solution, enabling operation across a wide temperature range. The venting system features flame-arresting flip-top vents for enhanced safety.
Common Troubles and Solutions
Common issues include improper electrolyte preparation, short circuits, and poor sealing. Troubleshooting steps involve replacing the electrolyte, cleaning, and ensuring proper charging/discharging.
Product Specifications
Specifications for various models in the KPL, KPM, and KPH series are detailed in tables, including rated voltage, capacity, dimensions, weight, and container material.
Performance Curves
Charging and discharging operating curves are provided for each series, illustrating performance under different conditions.
Comparison with VRLA Cells
Graphs compare the cycle life and capacity of pocket type Ni-Cd cells with VRLA cells, highlighting the superior performance of Ni-Cd cells across various temperatures.
Overview
The document offers detailed discharge performance data for the KPM and KPH series batteries, fully charged by constant current according to IEC60623 standards. Data is organized based on different final voltages per cell and available current under specific conditions.
Key Sections
  • Specifications: Lists various models of KPH series batteries with capacities (C5 Ah) ranging from 10 to 500 Ah. Performance data is provided for final voltages: 1.00V, 1.05V, 1.10V, 1.14V, 0.85V, and 0.65V per cell.
  • Discharge Performance Data: Details discharge performance for each model under various conditions, including different time intervals and final voltages. Tables show available current for each model at specified intervals.
  • Data Interpretation: Tables serve as a reference for battery sizing, indicating how long a battery can sustain a certain current before reaching the specified final voltage, crucial for precise performance predictions.
  • Recommendations: Suggests using discharge data as a reference for battery sizing, emphasizing its purpose for sizing rather than exact performance predictions.
Critical Information
The document underscores the importance of understanding battery discharge characteristics under different conditions to ensure proper sizing and application. The final voltage per cell is a critical parameter affecting discharge performance and should be carefully considered during battery selection.

Plates The main material of positive plate is nickel hydroxide, and the main material of negative plate is cadmium oxide. These active materials are separately retained in pocket formed nickel plated steel strip which is double perforated by a patented process. According to the capacity required, quantities of plate strips are mechanically linked together, then cut to the size corresponding to the plate width required and compressed to the final plate dimensions. At last, the plates are welded or assembled on the current collectors, which not only ensure the high mechanical strength,but also...
