Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) batteries are widely used in solar and backup power systems due to their maintenance-free design, safety, and reliability. This article explores SLA battery technologies—AGM and Gel—highlighting their structural advantages, performance in demanding environments, and suitability for solar energy integration.
To maintain a lead-acid battery, you must keep it charged, clean the terminals, check electrolyte levels, and prevent sulfation. Proper maintenance ensures longevity and reliable performance. Lead-acid batteries power vehicles, solar systems, and backup power supplies, but neglecting maintenance can cause premature failure.
Lead-acid batteries discharge over time even when not in use, and prolonged discharge can permanently damage them. By following these maintenance practices, you can significantly extend the life of your lead-acid batteries and ensure optimal performance in all your applications.
SLA batteries are appealing choices for integrating with solar systems due to their low-maintenance nature and ability to operate in various orientations without the hazard of acid spillage. Their robustness under variable charge and discharge cycles assures steady performance, aligning well with renewable energy setups.
