CHAPTER 1
GENERAL
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Lead acid batteries are provided on electric
locomotives for working of control circuit,
protective relays, indication lamps etc. as well as for
operation of baby compressor. These batteries
operate under severe environmental conditions like
high and low temperature, vibrations, dusty and
humid atmosphere.
1.2.3 Separators
Dual separation comprising of poly-ethylene
envelopes and glass wool mats are fitted between
each pair of plates. The glass-wool retainer mats
press firmly on both sides of the positive plates, to
restrain the shedding of active material and better
ionic conduction.
Positive plate
Negative plate
Porvic separator
Separator guard of
plastic protects separators
while servicing the cell and
electrolyte.

1.2.7 Pillar sealing
All pillars are effectively sealed by welding them to
a lead insert in the lid.
1.2.8 Terminals
a. Continuously 45°C
Remove the vent plugs and fill the cells with cool
electrolyte (battery grade sulphuric acid) of 1.230 or
1.240 specific gravity at 27°C upto the mark.
