Industrial NiCd Battery

In 1899, Waldemar Jungner of Sweden created the first nickel-cadmium battery. At this time, the only direct competitor was the lead acid battery. The nickel-cadmium battery offered several advantages in certain applications. Early nickel-cadmium batteries were physically and chemically robust and, early modifications to the design increased the energy density to about half of that of primary batteries, significantly better than lead acid batteries.

The nickel-cadmium battery (commonly abbreviated NiCd battery) is a rechargeable system which uses active chemicals based on nickel (Ni) and cadmium (Cd). Through its electrochemistry, the nickel cadmium battery has a stable behaviour giving it a long life, good electrical and mechanical characteristics and a resistance against abusive conditions. Another historically important modification to the basic nickel-cadmium cell was the addition of lithium hydroxide to the potassium hydroxide electrolyte. This has the effect of prolonging the service life by making the cell more resistant to electrical abuse. In its ‘flooded’ form it is found in general industrial applications and,has a specific niche market in application areas which are difficult for other battery technologies. Due to their beneficial technical characteristics as compared to lead based technologies and good service lifetimes, they are used in standby applications such as railway lighting and security applications, start batteries for aeroplanes and critical stationary applications where a high level of security is required.

The traditional design for the plates used in industrial nickel-cadmium batteries is the pocket construction. The active material, either in powder form or compressed briquettes, are enclosed in perforated pockets produced from nickel plated steel foil. This acts both as a mechanical support for the briquette and as a current collector. Several pockets are then crimped or welded into a steel frame to form a rectangular plate. The active materials used in nickel-cadmium cells are produced in the discharged form. These are nickel or cadmium hydroxide for the positive and negative plate respectively.

Vertical separating rods or bars made from polystyrene or polypropylene are used to prevent contact between adjacent positive and negative plates in the stack. In some low maintenance products this type of separation is replaced by a fibrous polyamide separator which is used to enhance the recombination level and reduce water consumption. The cells are filled with an electrolyte of 1.20 sg to 1.33 sg potassium hydroxide solution (KOH). The completed stack of nickel cadmium battery plates is fitted into containers made either of steel ot plastic.

Electro-chemistry

As the cell is discharged the active materials consume water (H2O) and become transformed to nickel hydroxide (Ni(OH)2) and cadmium hydroxide (Cd(OH)2) according to the following equation representing the overall electrochemical reaction occurring in the battery cell: 2 NiOOH + Cd + 2 H2O = 2 Ni(OH)2 + Cd(OH)2 This reaction goes from left to right when the battery is being discharged and from right to left when it is being recharged. The alkaline electrolyte (commonly KOH) is not consumed in this reaction. In Malaysia, OGAP Supplies & Services is one of the top supplier for industrial & military grade NiCd batteries.

NiCD (Nickel Cadmium) rechargeable batteries which are very commonly used today in a multitude of applications, including consumer electronic products, in industry/manufacturing and in many government departments including the military, disaster relief organizations and a host of many other agencies.

Often times, they are the number one choice for consumers who use solar lights but of course, they have loads of other applications such as: wall or desk clocks, cordless phones, remote-controls, and that’s just naming a few.

The reason that NiCD rechargeable batteries are the mainstay of battery power within solar lighting is that the charger that is usually built in to the lights will only charge NICD cells. That is why people who use NIMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries in their solar lights find that the lights don’t work. When they come to ask asking them to help them figure it out, because they say their batteries are all fresh and they’re at a loss to why the lights don’t work, we’re happy to set them straight.

We are happy to provide these sort of everday tid-bits of battery knowledge on our site, available for all to read and refer to.

NiCD rechargeable batteries are available in the following battery sizes: AA, AAA,C, Sub C,D, and 9 Volt.

Additionally, we offer NiCad Batteries with Tabs to Build Battery Packs, and we are able to supply any numbers of batteries throughout Malaysia.

NiCD batteries are typically best for low-drain products because on average, they deliver roughly one third (1/3) the capacity of Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable batteries.Today’s cameras for example, are not low-drain devices. They require a lot of power to operate and therefore fall into more of a high-drain battery category and as such, are not best powered by NiCD batteries.

By contrast, solar lighting for example, are perfect applications for Nickel Cadmium Battery use. All batteries self discharge. This simply means that they “leak” out power (leak is our ‘layman” term), when not in use. Simply sitting on the shelf (idle), some energy from the battery seeps out. In NiCD battery chemistry, the discharge rate is significantly slower than in NIMH batteries – another interesting feature that appeals to many. Their NiCD batteries therefore, will retain much of their total charge, for longer than NiMH. Should you only wish to use your NiCD batteries once in a while, you can be more assured that they will still have power remaining in them even if you haven’t picked one up off the shelf in months and months. If you’re looking for NiCd battery for industrial purpose, we’re the best supplier in Malaysia.

Type of NiCd Batteries

Pocket Plate Range NiCd Battery

Our pocket type nickel cadmium battery has been supplied stable and reliable battery solution for many industrial power applications. Our block batteries function in a wide range of temperatures, resist electrical abuse, shock and vibrations and need only basic maintenance. This ensures a low total cost of ownership (TCO) over a life cycle that can last 20 years or more.

Sintered Plate Range NiCd Battery

Our XHP Series nickel cadmium batteries depending on the full set of sintered plate production line and technology imported from VARTA Germany , have ultra high discharge rate ability and are widely used for the engine starting power of diesel locomotives, railway, UPS systems, AGV, light truck trains, DC cabinet, distribution cabinet, civil aviation and aircrafts.

Ultra-low Maintenance Gas Recombination Range NiCd Battery

Our Gas recombination ultra-low maintenance Ni-Cd rechargeable battery adopts negative oxygen recombination technology and gas recombination vent plug technology, therefore, the water consumption inside the cell is ultra-low, which are widely applicable for electric power, telecommunication, mass transit, metallurgy, mining, lighting, UPS power supply and other devices as standby DC power supply, as well as energy storage power for solar and wind energy.
