HPPL technology – the best of both worlds
The use of the pure lead to manufacture the electrodes forms the basis of the new High Performance Pure Lead (HPPL) technology. Its superior corrosion properties enable a significant reduction in electrode thickness while increasing service life. The result is a larger electrochemical reaction surface that leads the way in terms of energy and power density for lead-acid storage technologies.
With the help of state-of-the-art simulation software, the heat development could be limited to a safe level. The upper maximum value of the permissible operating temperature range was increased from 45 °C to up to 55 °C. In combination with the dimensionally stable battery container, the grid | Xtreme VR is therefore particularly suitable for use in harsh environmental conditions.
In addition, HPPL technology uses active masses with a higher density, which until now have been used exclusively for cycle-resistant lead batteries. Thus, for the first time, the innovative new HOPPECKE
grid | Xtreme VR combines properties in one series that were previously served by two different product ranges.
