Monday, November 25, 2013: Industrial batteries are classified on the basis of their chemical composition—lead acid, nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride and lithium ion. Sealed acid battery varieties can be further divided into two major categories—flooded and sealed. Due to the advances in battery technology, batteries like sealed maintenance-free VRLA batteries now require minimal maintenance. In this section, we feature some of the new launches in industrial batteries over the last one year.
