Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries, unlike lead acid batteries, consist of nickel hydroxide and cadmium hydroxide plates in a basic solution instead of acid.
Compared to lead acid batteries, it can operate in much more severe environmental and usage conditions. It has a very long life and most importantly, the sudden death weakness seen in lead acid batteries does not occur in Ni-Cd batteries. For this reason, it is indispensable for systems where power cuts are vital.
Ni-Cd Batteries are also produced in different types according to their intended use and ambient conditions.
For example, an application that requires very high current density in a short time, such as the generator start battery, and those used in areas that need to be serviced at low current density for very long periods of time require different types.
EKA Sistem is the Turkey representative of the world's leading company ALCAD, which has been producing Ni-Cd batteries for more than 100 years.
