Advantage 3:

Overflow protection

• Overfilled batteries can cause acid to leak out of the battery during the charging process.
• The expanded acid is allowed to flow into into the Dissipater until it cools and flows back into the battery. This keeps the acid level strong and prevents early corrosion of the battery case.
• Each time acid loss happens, 3-5% of the capacity is lost unless the the acid is re-balanced which is costly and time consuming.

An overfilled cell may seem fine when it is cool.	During the charge cycle, the cells get hot and expansion occurs. The Dissipater will holds the overflow until the battery cools, releasing it back to the cell maintaining consistent acid densities.

Corroded Battery This battery has experienced a loss of acid due to overfilling of the cells. This creates a loss of battery capacity and also causes corrosion of the battery case.

• Acid spills corrodes the battery case and lift truck parts. Cleaning up a spill requires that it be naturalized and disposed of in accordance to local regulation.
• The Dissipater keeps your batteries clean and dry allowing them to last longer with less chemical shorts.
