Breakthrough In Battery Protection Announced

Bravo Zulu International Ltd., announces the development of an aviation specific Batt-Recon system of lead-acid battery sulfation elimination machines.

This new battery maintenance system is a breakthrough in technology allowing for the first time, a commercially viable method to remove sulfate buildup on the inside of a battery's lead plates. This is possible because of BZI Laboratories mastery of "Pulse Width Modulation" (PWM) in the motion simulation business.

PWM generates high amplitude, low frequency electrical waves, providing a safe "ultra-sonic" type of cleaning action to the battery's internal plates. Unless the battery has internal damage, this process dissolves the sulfates and restores most batteries that were previously discarded, to a "serviceable" condition.

Typical results allow the battery to operate within manufacturer's specifications for additional year or more, depending on the battery, its operating environment and application. This machine is "Universal Machine" allowing it to work on most lead-acid types of batteries.

"Variable Power Pulse Technology" and "Multi-Channel" design allow this machine to de-sulfate and restore a large 4,000-pound forklift battery in about one hour, or the delicate finesse to de-sulfate and restore a small aircraft battery in 30 minutes. Typical aviation applications include lead-acid batteries in helicopters, fixed wing aircraft and even those expensive batteries in corporate and commercial jets.

Why is battery sulfation a problem in aircraft batteries? Level 1 sulfation occurs as a natural process of discharging a battery when the sulfur molecule in battery acid is transferred and attaches itself to the lead plates inside a battery. During the recharging process, not all sulfur molecules are forced back into the acid solution; those that remain are called Level 2 sulfation.

As battery sulfates increase, they reduce performance until you notice the battery no longer has the strength to start your aircraft. For more information about renting, purchasing or having service performed on your batteries, call 951-928-0595, or visit them on the web at www.battrecon.com.
