Hello All,
Does anybody know where I can find standard Rt and Kt values for sizing an industrial Lead-Calcium battery? I've made the entire iterative spreadsheet recommended by IEEE-485, but it does me no good without those values. Also, does anyone know the design factor used for sizing the charger for lead-calcuim batteries? I found 1.1 for lead-acid (1.4 for NiCad) is lead-acid considered the same thing as lead-calcium?

Yours, Nick

Battery supplier websites or vendor reps should have the data for their various battery types.

Lead Acid & lead calcium are essentially the same.
