If your battery is maintained properly, it can easily last for another two-three years,” Ana said. The Energic Replus battery regenerator process is automatic and doesn’t require special attention since the entire process is temperature-controlled and monitored by the included software, Ana said. “After approximately 40 hours the regenerator will have finished the entire operation which consists of two complete charge and discharge cycles designed to desulphate your battery completely. “If used in combination with our BMS (Battery Monitoring System) technology, the Replus regenerator will analyse your battery down to cell level, after which, the recovery mode will start automatically to completely desulphate your battery. One sensor per cell tells us the voltage throughout the entire regeneration process so this will give us a view on the condition of each of the single cells. With the diagnostics software you detect which cell is no longer functioning properly causing the battery to run down. “The regenerator can also be programmed remotely by computer (via wireless communication) or it can be programmed on the machine itself.” Contact: 07 3277 0877 or visit website: www.energicplus.com EQUIPMENT R GET IN TOUCH TO FIND OUT MORE makinex.com.au HOSE 2GO Multipleuses at work&play 4 No pump 4 No electrics 4 No battery MONDAY TO FRIDAY SATURDAY & SUNDAY Constant pressureportablewater supplyunit Battery regeneration is becoming very popular
