Hawker Offers PowerSafe G SLC Rechargeable Batteries

Hawker Energy Products Inc. (Warrensburg, MO) announced the introduction of its PowerSafe G family of reformulated, sealed lead-calcium (SLC), 6V and 12V rechargeable batteries. The PowerSafe G valve-regulated (VRLA) sealed product line comes in three models: the GA, GAX and GEL. The batteries are suitable for a variety of applications such as telecommunications, information technology, standby power, uninterruptible power supplies, general applications and motive industries.

The batteries have been specifically enhanced for improved performance and durability through the use of high-purity lead and electrolytes, and higher compression rates. Each battery is designed with proven gas recombination technology that eliminates the need for regular water addition by controlling the evolution of hydrogen and oxygen during charging. The minimum level of gas evolution and the sealed, spill-proof construction allow battery installation in cabinets or on stands, in offices, or near main equipment, thus providing high levels of safety, reliability, space efficiency, and low storage and maintenance costs.
