Comparison with flooded lead

acid cells

Compared with flooded leadacid cells, VRLA batteries offer several advantages. The battery can be mounted in any position, since the valves only operate on over pressure faults. Since the battery system is designed to be recombinant and eliminate the emission of gases on overcharge, room ventilation requirements are reduced and no acid fume is emitted during normal operation. The volume of free electrolyte that could be released on damage to the case or venting is very small. There is no need (nor possibility) to check the level of electrolyte or to top up water lost due to electrolysis, reducing inspection and maintenance.[3] Compared to flooded batteries, VRLA batteries are more sensitive to high temperature environments and more vulnerable to thermal run-away during abusive charging conditions.[1] VRLA batteries also have higher charge efficiency, flooded cells convert 1520% of the electrical energy into heat instead of potential power. Gel-cells lose 1016% but AGMs as little as 4%. While flooded cells lose up to 1% per day due to self-discharge, VRLAs lose 13% per month.

Cost. AGM automobile batteries for example, are typically about twice the price of flooded-cell batteries in a given BCI size group. AGM batteries do not tolerate overcharging. Overcharging dissociates the water in the electrolyte, which is unable to be replaced, leading to premature failure.

Advantages and Disadvantages of AGM VRLA Battery


0 Absorbed glass mat (AGM) Battery is a class of VRLA battery in which the electrolyte is held on the glass mat separator by way of capillary action. The AGM battery is different from other lead-acid batteries because it uses a glass mat separator to maintain its position in electrolytes. These rugs can be used for the AGM with the highest frequency of acid build up there and never paid a drop. There, in 1980 by Concorde Aircraft Battery was developed was their intention, a warm climate, vibration-proof chemical alternative to expensive batteries of their current technology used to build fighter planes. Today, the general assembly is used in many

motorcycles and cars. They are also often in remote sensing and cold environments because of their lack of electrolytes have never attack or use crack. Advantages of AGM VRLA Battery All AGM batteries boast some significant performance enhancement over traditional flooded lead acid cells: AGM construction allows purer lead in the plates as each plate no longer needs to support its own weight based on the sandwich construction with AGM matting. Traditional cells must support their own weight in the bath of acid. AGM Batteries are un-spillable, keeping lead and acid out of the environment. AGM Batteries have high specific power or Power Density, holding more roughly 1.5x the AH capacity as flooded batteries based on purer lead. AGM Batteries have very low internal resistance allowing them to be charged and discharged quite rapidly without creating heat based on construction and pure lead. AGM Batteries are maintenance free, never requiring a watering over the life of the battery. AGM Batteries will not corrode their surroundings as the acid is encapsulated in the matting. AGM Batteries will not freeze and crack, operating well below 0F or C. AGM Batteries can be UL, DOT, CE, Coast Guard, and Mil-Spec approved to isolate HAZMAT. AGM Batteries are exceptionally vibration resistant based on the sandwich construction. Disadvantages of AGM VRLA Battery Cost. AGM automobile batteries for example, are typically about twice the price of flooded-cell batteries in a given BCI size group. AGM Batteries boast up to a 10 year lifespan, but must be sized to discharged less deeply than the traditional flooded batteries. AGM Battery depth of discharge for optimal performance 50% Flooded Battery depth of discharge for optimal performance 80% AGM Batteries do not tolerate overcharging. Overcharging burns electrolyte, which is unable to be replaced, leading to premature failure.

For marine applications, there is a clear cut winner between these two technologies of lead acid battery. AGM Battery will always beat a GEL battery for marine applications. Simply put, any AGM battery is stronger, lasts longer, and is safer than any gel battery on the market. VRLA battery doesnt require any maintenance which is very different from the standard lead acid battery that always needs to add distilled water.

2.NICAD
Comparison with other batteries

Recently, nickelmetal hydride and lithium-ion batteries have become commercially available and cheaper, the former type now rivaling NiCd batteries in cost. Where energy density is important, NiCd batteries are now at a disadvantage compared with nickelmetal hydride and lithium-ion batteries. However, the NiCd battery is still very useful in applications requiring very high discharge rates because it can endure such discharge with no damage or loss of capacity.
Advantages

When compared to other forms of rechargeable battery, the NiCd battery has a number of distinct advantages:
y

y y

The batteries are more difficult to damage than other batteries, tolerating deep discharge for long periods. In fact, Ni Cd batteries in long-term storage are typically stored fully discharged. This is in contrast, for example, to lithium ion batteries, which are less stable and will be permanently damaged if discharged below a minimum voltage. Ni Cd batteries typically last longer, in terms of number of charge/discharge cycles, than other rechargeable batteries such as lead/acid batteries. Compared to lead acid batteries, Ni Cd batteries have a much higher energy density. A Ni Cd battery is smaller and lighter than a comparable lead acid battery. In cases where size and weight are important considerations (for example, aircraft), Ni Cd batteries are preferred over the cheaper lead acid batteries. In consumer applications, Ni Cd batteries compete directly with alkaline batteries. A Ni Cd cell has a lower capacity than that of an equivalent alkaline cell, and costs more. However, since the alkaline battery's chemical reaction is not reversible, a reusable Ni Cd battery has a significantly longer total lifetime. There have been attempts to create rechargeable alkaline batteries, or specialized battery chargers for charging single-use alkaline batteries, but none that has seen wide usage. The terminal voltage of a Ni Cd battery declines more slowly as it is discharged, compared with carbon zinc batteries. Since an alkaline battery's voltage drops significantly as the charge drops, most consumer applications are well equipped to deal with the slightly lower Ni Cd cell voltage with no noticeable loss of performance. The capacity of a Ni Cd battery is not significantly affected by very high discharge currents. Even with discharge rates as high as 50C, a Ni Cd battery will provide very nearly its rated capacity. By contrast, a lead acid battery will only provide approximately half its rated capacity when discharged at a relatively modest 1.5C.

Nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries are the newest, and most similar, competitor to Ni Cd batteries. Compared to Ni Cd batteries, NiMH batteries have a higher capacity and are less toxic, and are now more cost effective. However, a Ni Cd battery has a lower self-discharge rate (for example, 20% per month for a Ni Cd battery, versus 30% per month for a traditional NiMH under identical conditions), although low self-discharge NiMH batteries are now available, which have substantially lower self-discharge than either Ni Cd or traditional NiMH batteries. This results in a preference for Ni Cd over NiMH batteries in applications where the current draw on the battery is lower than the battery's own self-discharge rate (for example, television remote controls). In both types of cell, the self-discharge rate is highest for a full charge state and drops off somewhat for lower charge states. Finally, a similarly sized Ni Cd battery has a slightly lower internal resistance, and thus can achieve a higher maximum discharge rate (which can be important for applications such as power tools).

[edit] Disadvantages

The primary trade-off with Ni Cd batteries is their higher cost and the use of cadmium. This heavy metal is an environmental hazard, and is highly toxic to all higher forms of life. They are also more costly than lead acid batteries because nickel and cadmium cost more. One biggest disadvantages is that the battery exhibits a very marked negative temperature coefficient. This means that as the cell temperature rises, the internal resistance falls. This can pose considerable charging problems, particularly with the relatively simple charging systems employed for lead acid type batteries. Whilst lead acid batteries can be charged by simply connecting a dynamo to them, with a simple electromagnetic cut-out system for when the dynamo is stationary or an over-current occurs, the Ni Cd battery under a similar charging scheme would exhibit thermal runaway, where the charging current would continue to rise until the over-current cut-out operated or the battery destroyed itself. This is the principal factor that prevents its use as engine-starting batteries. Today with alternator-based charging systems with solid-state regulators, the construction of a suitable charging system would be relatively simple, but the car manufacturers are reluctant to abandon tried-and-tested technology.

Advantages and disadvantages of the Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) Battery


A periodic full discharge is so important that, if omitted, large crystals will form on the cell plates (also referred to as memory) and the NiCd will gradually lose its performance Alkaline nickel battery technology originated in 1899, when Waldmar Jungner invented the NiCd battery. The materials were expensive compared to other battery types available at the time and its use was limited to special applications. In 1932, the active materials were deposited inside a porous nickel-plated electrode and in 1947, research began on a sealed NiCd battery, which recombined the internal gases generated during charge rather than venting them. These advances led to the modern sealed NiCd battery, which is in use today. The NiCd prefers fast charge to slow charge and pulse charge to DC charge. All other chemistries prefer a shallow discharge and moderate load currents. The NiCd is a strong and silent worker; hard labor poses no problem. In fact, the NiCd is the only battery type that performs best under rigorous working

conditions. It does not like to be pampered by sitting in chargers for days and being used only occasionally for brief periods. A periodic full discharge is so important that, if omitted, large crystals will form on the cell plates (also referred to as memory) and the NiCd will gradually lose its performance. Among rechargeable batteries, NiCd remains a popular choice for applications such as twoway radios, emergency medical equipment, professional video cameras and power tools. Over 50 percent of all rechargeable batteries for portable equipment are NiCd. However, the introduction of batteries with higher energy densities and less toxic metals is causing a diversion from NiCd to newer technologies. Advantages and Disadvantages of NiCd Batteries

Memory Effects
y

Many rechargeable batteries are subject to a "memory effect" if they are not properly charged and discharged regularly. Memory effect for Ni-CD batteries means that they may eventually lose the ability to attain and maintain a full charge. This means that the electronic item can be used for progressively shorter periods before needing to have a charge replenished. One way of avoiding memory effect is by "cycling" the battery, or allowing it to discharge nearly completely, then slowly recharging the battery again.

3.LIFEP- Lithium iron phosphate

Advantages and disadvantages


The LiFePO4 battery uses a lithium-ion-derived chemistry and shares many of its advantages and disadvantages with other Lithium-ion battery chemistries. However, one key advantage over other lithium-ion batteries is the superior thermal and chemical stability, which provides better safety characteristics than lithium-ion batteries with other cathode materials.[6] Due to significantly stronger bonds between the oxygen atoms in the phosphate (compared to the cobalt), oxygen is not readily released, and as a result, lithium iron phosphate cells are virtually incombustible in the event of mishandling during charge or discharge, and can handle high temperatures without decomposing.[6] Lithium iron phosphate chemistry also offers a longer cycle life over standard lithium-ion cells.[6]

The use of phosphates also reduces the cost and environmental concerns of Cobalt cells, particularly in regards of cobalt entering the environment through improper disposal,[6] with considerably increased safety over the cobalt chemistry type of lithium battery cell, particularly when compared to LiPo battery cells commonly used in the aeromodeling hobby. One of the other major advantages for LiFePO4 when compared with LiCoO2 is higher current or peak-power rating.[7] LFP batteries have some drawbacks:
1. The energy density (energy/volume) of a new LFP battery is somewhat lower than that of a new LiCoO2 battery (14% reduction in energy density). Battery manufacturers across the world are currently working to find ways to maximize the energy storage performance and reduce size & weight.[8] 2. Many brands of LFPs have a low discharge rate compared with lead-acid or LiCoO2. Since discharge rate is a percentage of battery capacity this can be overcome by using a larger battery (more ampre-hours). However, A123Systems claims 100C pulse discharge rate.[9]

While LiFePO4 cells have lower voltage and energy density than LiCoO2 Li-ion cells, this disadvantage is offset over time by the slower rate of capacity loss (aka greater calendar-life) of LiFePO4 when compared with other lithium-ion battery chemistries (such as LiCoO2 cobalt or LiMn2O4 manganese spinel based lithium-ion polymer batteries or lithium-ion batteries).[10][11] For example:
y y

After one year on the shelf, a LiFePO4 cell typically has approximately the same energy density as a LiCoO2 Li-ion cell. Beyond one year on the shelf, a LiFePO4 cell is likely to have higher energy density than a LiCoO2 Li-ion cell due to the differences in their respective calendar-lives.

Efficiency: This comparison is critical. Internal resistance of a battery denotes its overall charge/discharge efficiency, its ability to deliver high cranking currents without significant drops in voltage, and is a measure of how well it has been designed and manufactured. Internal resistance in NiCad batteries is approximately 40%, i.e., you need to charge a NiCad 140% of its rated capacity to have it fully charged. For flooded wet batteries, internal resistance can be as high as 26%, which is the charging current lost to gassing, or breaking up of water. Gel acid batteries are better at only approximately 16% internal resistance and require only roughly 116% of rated capacity to be fully charged. Lifeline Advanced AGM has the lowest internal resistance of any battery manufactured only 2 percent. This allows Lifelines to be charged much faster if needed and also to deliver higher power when required. Owners using high output alternators, operating inverter banks, or relying on solar panels can benefit significantly when using Lifeline Advanced AGM batteries with their equipment. "Lifelines" are more efficient!!
