RECOMBINATION VENT CAPS Bi-Directional Recombination Vent For Stationary Flooded/Vented Batteries Significantly reduces/eliminates watering intervals and increases safety in poorly-ventilated areas Principle of Operation Operation of lead acid batteries results in the electrolysis of water. Electrolysis reduces the amount of water in the electrolyte, which in turn requires the battery to be watered more frequently, increasing maintenance requirements. Hydrogen and oxygen are also naturally created as part of this process and these gases can accumulate and become explosive. The SBS recombination...
