How to Know your Inverter / UPS Batteries is Bad

Batteries are good sources of conservation of energy, can be used to store energy for subsiquent use from touch light batteries to high capacity batteries  such as inverter or motor systems. This batteries are either wet or dry cell batteries meaning their source or mode of operation could either be through liquid or solid substances.

Liquid batteries otherwise known as tubular batteries containing the specific acid and water as its electrolyte with plates which could be lead(Pb), its the constant chemical reaction due to the passage of electricity while charging and also the out flow of electricity while discharging meaning while you use it , its this concept that the principle of conversion of energy by batteries are based, from chemical energy to electrical energy vice-versa.

Similar case with the dry cell batteries conversion of energies.

                                                                     So how do i detect a bad battery ?

A good inverter battery is not detected by a spark check, many persons have made the mistake of sparking together the two terminals of a battery then it sparks heavily and its concluded that the battery is good , NO its not always the case batteries are detected to be good by duration meaning time it took to carry a particular load (heavy load) by load it could mean bulbs (200 watts in its numbers as fitting to your inverter. also beware of overloads), if the battery lasts long on heavy loads means it will certainly perform better on your average or minor load.

A bad Inverter battery will take no time to drain after a short time of use even on minimal load and most times it also might take short time to get full and due to this its easy to detect a bad battery awaiting replacement.

so how do we go about it?

Wet cell batteries are of more advantage as they may be revived easily than the dry cell batteries( which have very minimal chance of restoration).

Your Inverter May Become Useless soon

Inverters are rapidly being used in homes and offices, but in all we have too many improper installers of this inverters, as many are there for just the money, it’s called “hit and run”.  Here I will give intelligent detail on detecting your inverter was properly installed: First thing first   This is key, by environment it means where your inverter was installed, some persons for the fear of fire and less educated by the so called engineer, install their inverter in the generators room or by it. Some even have their inverters installed in the house but with very little space for air,  your inverter needs proper care, take it like a pet and not a slave; then your battery becomes happier, and lasts long both in duration and life span Installing properly with right tools : Inverters come with cables and cable locks for batteries and the inverter, otherwise called connectors, this connectors maybe copper-like materials, and are connected behind the i...

Should i get an Inverter?

Getting an Inverter is fast becoming inevitable in Nigeria its importance as become ever growing, most locality in Nigeria have atleast 6 hours Power on daily bases which is makes it a good idea to have more 5-8 hours backup time could certainly be more than that range depending on how an individual makes use of the inverter, with no noise and effective power supplies, alot of persons are discouraged because of the one time cost of inverters and its effectiveness which could be due to past experiences with inverters that failed which in most cases is the fault in the education of the customer on the safe usage of the equipment, now this brings us to the mistakes of orientation from installers probably due to securing a customer for their gain which is not a wise decision to make. Alot of persons might not be told of the danger of using pressing iron on lower or minimum home inverters which will certainly drain the battery to fast that it can weaken or damage the battery cells, an...

Jekitech will be at Meiran, Lagos Nigeria, Today!

A third party Customer called in yesterday in the morning, He uses Tubular Batteries ( Inverter wet cell batteries), and its a Topping Issue, He noted the battery liquid will as gone down and he either needs a refill or a fresh filling in respect to the issue on ground. There are several mistakes Customers and Vendors make with Tubular batteries: Too Late Refill of Batteries  Addition of unspecified liquid Too much liquid addition  liquid spill during addition (refill) No routine check before taking a refill decision Buying Refill Liquid from wrong vendors etc. In an approach to the request of the this Jekitech Third Party Customer, its essential that Jekitech goes and inspect before taking proper action other than just get a report from a customer and go fix without guidance.  We are sure to you on the Proceedings , so lookout for our next post.
