Thermal battery is independent energy source operating on the principle of chemical energy conversion into electrical one. Its capacity is from hundreds Watt to tens kilowatt.
Fields of application:
- Materiel and armament.
- Backup power supply to various power units (electric motors) in extreme conditions.
- Independent power supply to automatic fire-fighting systems.
Thermal Battery can be used as a standby power source in a variety of technologies:
- Starting of engines at low temperatures.
- Driving of faulty motor vehicles to a safe place.
- Power supply to elevators and mine hoists in case of mains power interruptions.
- Backup power supply for cutting and welding of metals under emergency conditions or when torch cutting and oxy-acetylene welding are impracticable; underwater welding
- Backup power supply to sprinkler systems.
- Other consumers in need of high-capacity power units for emergency power supply.
- Long-term (practically limitless) shelf life before use.
- Serviceability over a wide interval of ambient temperatures from -100 to +300°С.
- High specific power: 2-3 kW/kg during 1-2 minutes; 0.5 kW/kg during 20-30 minutes.
