Introduction
Reduces curing time 4 (automotive) to 6 hours (storage/motive)
Uniform curing of all plates
Increases porosity for higher capacity Ah
Negative and Positive Plates can be cured simultaneously
Reduces energy costs
Saves space in the factory
Specifications
Capacity per chamber: ca. 300.000 plates/day, 146" wide
Pallets per chamber: 8
Cycle time: 4 hours (automotive)
Outer chamber dimensions: 2.1m x 2.2m x 6,0m
Electrical connected load: 200 Kw

Ordinary tap water needed at normal pressure, distilled water is not necessary, Compressed air, natural gas and fuel oil are not necessary
Problems
Standard Conventional Curing Chambers
Each charge takes 24 - 66 hrs; creates bottlenecks and delays
Temperature and humidity are not evenly distributed
Plates are not uniformly cured
Plates dry out during long process times causing cracks in active material
Energy is wasted due to long process times in large chambers
Factory floor space is wasted from big chambers
HPL Solution
Our Conventional Curing Chambers
High intensity, individual pallet-targeted curing
Uniformity - each pallet is cured individually
Porosity - fast loading - plates remain moist
Flexibility - multiple batches per day
Energy savings – 30% • Factory space savings 66% 4m² vs 12 m²
Fully insulated top to bottom
