SRX Ni-Cd battery High power back-up for railways October 2006 SRX Ni-Cd battery Starting and braking power for railways Diesel locomotives, DMU (Diesel Multiple Units) and electric rolling stock equipment operate in some of the world’s most punishing conditions. Low temperature reliability Where total reliability is essential in harsh conditions, sintered/PBE technology tolerates extreme temperatures from +70°C (+158°F) to as low as –50°C (–58°F), levels that destroy lead acid batteries. Saft builds SRX nickel-cadmium batteries specifically for demanding rail applications in all climates. Lead Acid Corrective maintenance Extremes of temperature directly affect efficiency, but passengers and freight services still expect reliable service at a predictable cost. Guaranteed power for engine starting – even in freezing temperatures – emergency braking, tilting, and for raising At –20°C (–4°F) SRX retains more than 70% capacity, avoiding the need to oversize the battery and ensuring the availability of power even at low temperatures. Minimizing life cycle cost SRX features keep down overall cost and provide up to 15 years’ service through solid construction, large electrolyte reserves and advanced plate design. The optional Saft battery water filling system operates quickly and accurately to minimize maintenance costs. Maintenance SRX Operation Maintenance Operation Replacement pantographs is provided by today’s advanced rail battery technology: SRX 2 nickel-cadmium batteries. SRX’s extended lifetime is achieved through sintered/PBE technology and exceeds by more than 6 times the minimum lifetime required by UIC 854 R railway specification. Corrective maintenance Replacement Acquisition Acquisition Life cycle cost comparison over 30 years’ rolling stock operation Reliable power proven in action worldwide High power performance The SRX comprehensive offer SRX can deliver short duration high current discharges of up to 1 minute and up to 5 times its capacity for instantaneous diesel engine starting. Discharges of up to three times capacity for up to three minutes provide power for high speed train emergency braking. • Very competitive cost less than half the cost of lead acid over a 30 year operation of the rail network. Lighter and smaller Its flexible design makes SRX ideal in replacement and retrofit markets, suiting existing battery compartments without alteration. Bayonet flame arrester vent cap Large electrolyte reserve Sintered positive electrode Separator Plastic bonded negative electrode Container Sintered/pbe technology combines physical strength with excellent performance for high power rail applications • Minimum maintenance two years or more without topping-up. • High reliability predictable performance without risk of sudden death. • Long duration life SRX batteries can function for more than 15 years. • Wide operating temperature range from –20°C to +50°C (–4°F to +122°F) with extreme temperatures from –50°C to +70°C (–58°F to +158°F). • Advanced sintered/PBE technology excellent chargeability with minimized water consumption. 3 Battery weight and volume savings lead directly to lower operational costs with increased efficiency. SRX is lighter than conventionally sized batteries and provides equivalent performance in containers and battery compartments at least 60% smaller. A sound economical choice Built for reliability and long life Sintered/PBE construction brings together very strong sintered nickel positive electrodes and negative plastic bonded electrodes, insulated by microporous separators that allow electrolyte to freely circulate. Ni-Cd will not suffer sudden death, unlike lead acid batteries. Designed-in low maintenance Saft’s water filling system can be integrated as an option to cut the cost and time of maintenance and increase battery life through measured and controlled toppingup. Gases are safely exhausted through the channel system. Meeting recognised standards SRX batteries are built to ISO 9001 criteria and comply with most of the major mechanical and electrical standards, including I EC 60623, I EC 60077, DIN 40 771, BS 6260, UIC 854 R, NF F 64 018. Containers for all conditions Batteries are supplied in a wide variety of containers to suit varied conditions. • SRX steel containers in flame retardant plywood crates. • SRX P plastic containers in compact stainless steel crates. • SRX FR polyamide flame retardant plastic containers (classified V0 to meet the UL 94 standard and I3F2 under the NFF 16 101 norm, and also meeting ASTM E 162 and ASTM E 662 standards) in compact stainless steel crates. Trays for particular applications 4 Each battery option can be integrated into a tailored tray, individually designed to meet requirements for each application. Saft designers work with you through all stages from initial specification, sizing and testing, manufacture and installation, to life cycle costing models and ongoing international support.
