| NORTHSTAR BATTERY |
| Unique Dry Cell Battery with High Power Density (HPD) technology |
| |
NorthStar Batteries ("NSB") are commonly used for Telecommunication commercial & Industrial applications to meet network servers, heavy industrial machinery, trucks, Jet Skis, boats, generators and marine operations, military heavy vehicles (Tanks, field units etc) and other applications in demanding terrain & isolated environments like rural substations the NSB is the substitute for electric failure. |

NorthStar Product Range
Industrial Applications : NSB40, NSB70, NSB75, NSB90
Telecommunication Applications : NSB60FT, NSB90FT, NSB100FT, NSB110FT, NSB170FT
NSBXX - XX refers to power capacity in Ah
FT - Front Terminal
Common applications for the NSB motor start are :
|
| |
40 |

Comparison of NorthStar Dry Cell to regular Wet Cell |
Dry Cell-High Purity Lead 99.99% |
|
Wet Cell Lead Acid Battery |
| Fixed in ANY orientation and space |
|
Only Right side up |
Freight by AIR - non-hazardous
Recyclable - Does not explode/No spilling or leakage of acid
Fire Proof - can use near ammunition dumps / does not release any toxic gases / can be use in confined areas |
|
Cannot be air-freighted / explodes
Leaks liquids or spills / may cause explosive chemical reaction
Poorly packaged / Carcinogenic (Cancer causing) / Lawsuits for industrial accidents may be very costly |
| Fit and forget : absolutely NO Maintenance required. Service life extended to 5 years. ideal for rural & isolated areas. |
|
Check and top up of battery water required periodically/
Normal usage about 1 year.
Not practical for remote substations |
| Shelf life : 18 months and is pre-charged / will start immediately / battery charge sustained at 90% when not in
use, jumpstarts and will sustain power and works as normal battery. |
|
Most disconnect terminals if more than 2/3 days not in use/requires overnight charging
Battery drains to almost zero if vehicle not in use
Max 2-4 times jump start - battery is damaged and destroyed. |
| battery allows high duty multiple simultaneus usage - e.g. luxury cars with hi-fi, air-cond, heating systems and other electronics |
|
Only for normal purposes and yet battery drains progressively with more and more applications attached. |
| Installation : works immediately, no charging required. |
|
Needs overnight charge before installation for use. |
|

Depth of Discharge (DoD)
Out-performs wet cells |
