MicroCat - CTL-200
Near zero water loss, near zero gassing hygroscopic catalyst vents for flooded / vented batteries
The principle of hygroscopic absorption is used which eliminates the need for large external condensing surfaces. This allows the CTL-200 to be efficient while maintaining a low profile.
Safety is important so the CTL-200 is designed to be intrinsically safe in events of unintended overcharge. A combination of a self-limiting catalytic core and ultra-high temperature materials ensures the catalyst remains safe in all conditions. The CTL-200 catalyst, part of the MicroCAT catalyst range, is specially designed for flooded lead acid batteries used in reserve power applications.
The CTL-200 efficiently recombines Hydrogen and Oxygen back into water before it leaves the cell. The result is that the battery becomes virtually maintenance-free while hydrogen gas emissions are all but eliminated.
The CTL-200 features a low-pressure, 2-way vent system, which seals the cell, allowing gasses time to be recombined efficiently while providing overpressure and vacuum protection. This turns a standard flooded cell into a (flooded) valve-regulated cell.
- Over 99% effective to recombine gasses back into water vapour.
- Utilizing the hygroscopic environment of the cell, not condensation.
- Capable of neutralizing hydrogen sulfide, stibine, arsine and amines.
- Self-limiting Catalytic Design to prevent damage to the unit or the cell.
- Significant reduction in dangerous gasses and lower ventilation costs
