VDC Electronics now has
available Aviation Specific versions of its 12-V and 24-Volt Maintenance
Charger - De-Sulfator – Conditioners.
Designated as the 12-V model 12248-AA-S1 (Aviation Specific) and 24-V model
24041-AA-S1 both are safe to use on all type and size Aviation Specific
batteries, including both sealed and wet-cell constructions. The voltage
settings and charge rates (both user selectable) have been chosen, after
conferring with leading aviation battery makers in the U.S. By providing
each of these BatteryMINDer units with an “At-the-Battery” temperature
compensating sensor, batteries can be safely charged and maintained for
extended periods in temperature extremes from 32°F to 125°F. Without this
type temperature sensing, batteries will be under-charged in colder
temperatures (<70°F to 32°F) and over-charged in high temperatures (>80°F to
125°F).
Both models include full-time pulsed de-sulfation circuitry designed to
safely dissolve sulfation build-up on the battery’s storage plates,
restoring lost cranking power and extending life. Our de-sulfation method is
fully automatic, does not use potentially damaging high voltage and is
exclusively protected by two U.S. patents.
Presently only a small
number of VDC dealers carry these –AA-S1 models. We suggest calling us
directly for those who do, at (800) 379-5579 Ext. 201 or 208 (ET, M-F, 9-6)
or contacting Customer service at

 What
is Sulfation (sul-fay-shun) and
How Does It Affect Batteries?
When batteries are improperly maintained (over-under charged or left
uncharged for extended periods) small crystals of sulfuric acid from the
battery’s electrolyte (liquid or paste) form on the battery’s charge plates.
They act as a resistor (barrier) preventing the battery from ever again
accepting a full charge, no matter how long a charging source may be
connected. Once this occurs, the cranking power of the battery is severely
reduced, as well as its life. Aviation batteries are affected the most
because they have been designed for maximum performance in the
smallest-lightest case possible.
VDC Electronics has developed simple, but highly effective circuitry, able
to safely dissolve sulfation, restoring much, if not all, of the lost power,
providing the battery’s cells are not shorted or structurally damaged. This
U.S. Patented approach is believed to be the most effective method for
eliminating even the oldest hardened sulfate. By generating safe, wide-band,
random frequency electronic pulses, we are able to cover the full range of
sulfate crystals sizes, in the shortest possible time. Depending on the
amount of sulfate and its age, complete de-sulfation can occur within
several days to several weeks. De-sulfation takes place automatically, while
the battery is being bulk or maintenance level charged.
Note: Both BatteryMINDer models (12-V or 24-V) provide “full-time” de-sulfation.
We guarantee to safely eliminate all sulfate from any non-commercial
aviation battery meeting the criteria clearly stated in our Instruction
Manuals. |
