ABOUT
CEIL
The competitive world today
is borderless. Major industries
of the world require speed
and agility to ensure business
sustainability; downtime is simply
no excuse. These same driving
forces have led to the inception of
CEIL – Trusted Battery Systems.
CEIL is designed to drive
principal economic sectors
globally. This is achieved by
developing products in tandem
with innovative technology and
creating contemporary methods
of utilising energy in mobility.

CEIL is no commonplace battery. It is designed to be Tougher &
Hassle-Free. These brand values are born out of the same values of
CBSEA and EXIDE Industries Ltd (EIL); CEIL’s proud parents, trusted
for their advancement in battery technology. CEIL’s parentage
reflects strength and technological advancement which ensure that
CEIL provides a reliable flow of constant energy.
CEIL thrives on being the unrivalled choice as a battery systems
brand. CEIL will enable your business to be more reliable. This
hassle-free reliability will enhance your operational efficiency. By
hassle-free, we mean focusing on making your processes free of
downtime. You will experience this in our products, process and
people.
Your needs remain at the center of everything we do at CEIL, and the
dynamics of our customers’ trends will lead us to focus on innovative
delivery. Within each CEIL Traction battery system, Uninterrupted
Standby Power System and Automotive Battery, CEIL is designed to
deliver a complete system allowing you to stay reliable and efficient.
This is the Trusted value of CEIL.

RELIABLE TUBULAR
The cyclic nature of the application in solar installations makes Chloride’s OPzS Tubular
the ideal choice. Its rugged design is perfectly suited to withstand heavy duty cycles
with a low maintenance regime.

Recombination Vent Plug
The cylindrical design recombination
element in the plug is filled with catalytic
and absorption deposit. During charging
of the battery, oxygen and hydrogen gases
will evolve. As these gases pass through the
recombination element, the catalytic deposit
help these gases to recombine and form into
water, thus, extending the topping up period
by 5 to 10 years.

THE INSIDE STORY
The Tubular cell was developed in the early 1900s but it was
after the World War II that the braided glass fibre gauntlet was
developed to house the active material. Though initially meant
for cyclic applications, the design is extensively used in most
industries such as Power, Telecom, Oil & Gas, Solar etc., due to its
proven reliability in float applications. The Chloride OPzS range
has a life span exceeding 15 years (at 25°C)
Chloride has developed the special ToRR tubular
technology based on our experience for over half
a century.

Connector / Fastener
The global quality insulted
connector protect it from acid
attack. The insulation protects
operators from electric shocks.
Maintains close contact
between the terminals for better
conductivity, avoiding DC shorts.

Encapsulation
The pillar is specially constructed using an
injection moulded polymer encapsulation
around it. The ribbed design of the pillar at
the point of the scaling totally eliminate the
Crevice Corrosion cause by acid seepage.

Positive Spine

Terminal

The backbone of the plate. Cast at an incredibly high 100 bar
pressure, the special low antimony (1.6%-2.5%) alloy spine
is very durable with an extremely low resistance, while
having very low maintenance features. This is achieved by
using the high technology HADI equipment from Austria.
This technology ensures uniform grain orientation and
reduced voids for better electrical performance.
(See pictures below)

It is a High end technology Bolt-On
Terminals with Brass inserts that provide
better electrical performance and also
easy accessories replacement .

Gauntlets & Active Material
The special non woven gauntlets have a unique structure
that enable the electrolyte to penetrate more freely while
FURTHER reducing the shedding of the active material. This
combination of the gauntlets and the specially formulated
active material enhances the cycle life of the battery.
(See page 6 for cyclic test)
The Gauntlets diameter is more than 8 mm thick so that it
will give a longer life to the battery and deep discharge features.
Our factory uses high technology Slurry (Wet) Filling System from
Italy which ensures an even and accurate filling of the oxide, thus, it
has consistency in performance.

Cell Container
The cell container is
made from the Styrene
Acrylonitrile (SAN) material,
and its transparency allows
easy visual inspection.

The negative plates are cast in
antimony grid, and pasted with lead
oxide using state of the art MAC (US)
pasting machine which ensure uniform
density and texture. This helps to
enhance the longevity of the battery.

Separator
DARAK-5000 microporous duroplastic
separator. It has high temperature stability,
mechanical strength, low electrical resistance,
high porosity and low acid displacement which
makes it very eficient.

TECHNICALITIES
Comply to DIN 40736-1 and IEC 896-1

Electrolyte Topping Period
Range between 12 months to 18 months at 25˚C ambient temperature. Topping up period can be extended by
using Ceil Recombination Vent Plug to between 5 to 10 years. Use only distilled water.

VOLTAGE

Comparative ANALYSIS OF VENT CAPS IN STAND-BY APPLICATION

The nominal voltage is 2 volts per cell, i.e. a nominal 110 V battery will have 55 cells. On
discharge, the recommended final voltage at which the discharge should be terminated
depends on the discharge rate.

INITIAL CHARGING
• The filling in specific gravity of electrolyte for OPzS cells is 1.220 ± 0.005 at 25°C
• The rest period after the initial acid filling is 12-16 hours
• The initial charging current :
Starting Rate : 12% of C10 capacity
Finishing Rate : 6% of C10 capacity
• Total minimum Ah input is 5 times of C10 capacity
• The specific gravity of electrolyte of a fully charged cell is 1.240 ± 0.005 at 25°C

RECOMMENDED FLOAT VOLTAGE

INSTALLATION
These cells can be connected either edge-to-edge or face-to-face. The standard method
of connection is to follow the shortest distance between two terminals.
