Hydrogen Battery Cap

Water-Miser Safety Vent Cap

The most advanced industrial battery "flip-top" vent cap available today. Engineered and designed to encompass all areas of concern - ease of inspection and watering. Battery-top moisture reduction. Electrolyte retention within cells. Extended watering intervals. Fume-freer environment, as well as flame and/or spark retardant characteristics. An injection molded "flip-top" vent-cap addressing areas of safe and efficient maintenance during the routing servicing of industrial, semi-industrail and golf cart batteries. When a battery is equipped with the economical and reliable "Water-Miser Safety-Vent."

Usage

Typical use is one cap per 2V cell in a battery. For example, the Trojan T-105 battery is a 6V battery with three 2V cells. The cap from each cell is replaced by the Water-Miser Hydrocap. Advantages

• There is no need to remove vent-caps - just flip open for inspection and watering
• Escaping gases, exiting through the moisture-return medium during the charging cycle, carry fewer electrolyte laden droplets, assuring that cell electrolyte gravities are being better maintained.
• Consistency of intended cell voltages and capacity characteristics are enhanced.
• Tops of the batteries remain much drier.
• Cell to cell and battery to equipment body-grounding is respectively reduced.
• Extended watering intervals are achieved.
• The bayonet quarter-turn design ASSURES PROPER FIT for all US manufactured batteries.
• Orientation of the cover assembly through 360 degree is standard.

Safety Factors

• Externally initiated explosions, within the battery cells are virtually eliminated due to the incorporation of the flame and/or spark retardant Hydrophobic Cindered Disc.
• The built in Anti-Splash device assures that a minimum of electrolyte is propelled into the immediate area when the Flip-Top is opened for inspections or watering.
• The handling of acid-ladened vent-caps is a thing of the past: just FLIP OPEN, FLIP SHUT - lesser exposure to electrolyte (sulfuric acid) as fumes and/or liquid.

The "Water-Miser Safety-Vent" can be retro-fitted to any US manufactured industrial battery and most semi-industrial and golf cart batteries. Its design accommodates all single-cell fillers having nozzle diameters of up to 3/4 inch. Flip-Top Labor savings, during servicing, versus the standard vent-cap will more than compensate for the costs within the first 6 months. The top of the cap sits 1.5" above the battery. Allow another 1" for the filler cap to open.
