BATTERY RECYCLING
POWER-SONIC is dedicated to the protection of our environment and we would urge you to recycle your old batteries on
every occasion.
We in the battery industry are proud of the fact that lead-acid batteries are the environmental success story of our time. More
than 97% of all battery lead is recycled. Compared to 55% of aluminium soft drink and beer cans, 45% of newspapers, 26% of
glass bottles and 26% of tyres, lead acid batteries top the list of the most highly recycled consumer products.
The lead-acid battery gains its environmental edge from its closed loop cycle. The typical new lead-acid battery contains 60 to
80 percent recycled lead and plastic The recycling cycle goes on indefinitely, that means the lead and plastic in the lead-acid
batteries that you use have been - and will continue to be - recycled many, many times. This makes lead acid battery disposal
extremely successful from both environmental and cost perspectives.
Almost all scrap metal merchants will accept used lead-acid batteries for recycling. A collection service is available at most
landfills, transfer stations, service stations and automotive workshops. Many councils have regular collections or drop-off
locations for hazardous waste. Visit your council pages on www.recyclingnearyou.com.au to find out about hazardous waste
services in your area.
THE PROCESS
The battery is broken apart in a hammer mill, a machine that hammers the battery into pieces.
The broken battery pieces go into a vat, where the lead and heavy materials fall to the bottom while the plastic rises to the top. At
this point, the polypropylene pieces are scooped away and the liquids are drawn off, leaving the lead and heavy metals. Each of
the materials goes into a different “stream.”
PLASTIC
The polypropylene pieces are washed, blown dry and sent to a plastic recycler where the pieces are melted together into an
almost-liquid state. The molten plastic is put through an extruder that produces small plastic pellets of a uniform size. Those
pellets are sold to the manufacturer of battery cases, and the process begins again.
LEAD
The lead grids, lead oxide and other lead parts are cleaned and then melted together in smelting furnaces.
The molten lead is poured into ingot moulds. Large ingots, weighing about 2,000 pounds are called hogs. Smaller ingots,
weighing 65 pounds, are called pigs. After few minutes, the impurities, otherwise known as dross, float to the top of the still-
molten lead in the ingot moulds. The dross is scraped away and the ingots are left to cool.
When the ingots are cool, they are removed from the moulds and sent to battery manufacturers, where they are re-melted and
used in the production of new lead plates and other parts for new batteries.
SULPHURIC ACID
The acid is neutralized with an industrial compound similar to household baking soda. This turns the acid into water. The water is
treated; cleaned and tested to be sure it meets clean water standards. Then it is released into the public sewer system.
Another way to treat acid is to process it and convert it to sodium sulphate, an odourless white powder that’s used in laundry
detergent, glass and textile manufacturing. This takes a material that would be discarded and turns it into a useful product.

POWER-SONIC AUTOMOTIVE BATTERIES
The new POWER-SONIC Automotive Series of batteries are built to withstand vibration and the harsh environments that these
batteries are subjected to. They stand alone in quality and provide a supreme cycle life. There are 5 main styles of batteries and
there will be one to suit your needs. These include:
TYPE APPLICATION
Extra Heavy Duty In between cranking and starting built for dual purpose
Marine/RV Deep Cycle Batteries Deep cycle with high CCA are the ideal choice for marine
caravan applications
Deep Cycle/ High Cycle Batteries Designed to be run down and charged up on a regular basis
These batteries are manufactured using only the highest quality materials and technology and are supplied from one of the
world’s most highly respected automotive battery factories. To view the full range and specifications for these batteries,
skip to the application guide section or visit us at www.sealedperformance.com.au.
All POWER-SONIC Maintenance Free Batteries feature lead calcium expanded grids (lead calcium technology) for improved
resistance to corrosion, gassing, water usage, self-discharge and thermal runaway, all of which limit battery life in conventional
lead acid batteries. The range includes batteries to suit cranking/starting (traditional automotive), high cycle, dual purpose
starting/deep cycle and deep cycle applications. POWER-SONIC heavy duty batteries are built to withstand all terrains and
beatings. They are purposely built with extra thick plates for a greater crank and vibration resistance. They are superior in their
performance for all trucks, heavy equipment and machinery.

COIN TOP BATTERIES
A ll POWER-SONIC Coin Top Batteries feature lead calcium expanded grids (lead calcium technology) for resistance to corrosion,
overcharging, gassing, water usage, self discharge and thermal runaway, all of which limit battery life in conventional lead
batteries. The features are:
Accessible coin top vent caps to allow filling and easier fitment
Low resistance Envelope Separators—Encapsulated negative plates help to prevent shorting between
negative and positive plates
MARINE BATTERIES
POWER-SONIC Marine batteries are designed to take the vibrations and wave pounding that comes with the territory.
They have superior starting power and cycling capability with high density plate paste that lasts longer. They are durable and
strong and are tested to withstand the demanding marine environment.
With dual terminals and a cycling capacity, the POWER-SONIC Marine battery is ideal for the recreational fisherman or the hard
working sea captain. They have deep pocket, polyethylene envelope plate separators to help protect against internal short circuits.
.
POWER-SONIC deep cycle batteries are perfect for running a fridge, lights, TV or radio in any boat or caravan. Deep cycle
batteries are designed to provide sustained power for extended periods when continuously discharged.They are built to deliver
small amounts of current over continuous periods of time whether it be hours, days or weeks. The differences between
POWER-SONIC deep cycle batteries and the others are:

CHOOSING THE CORRECT BATTERY
It is important to choose the correct POWER- SONIC battery to suit your needs.
Ask what you are using it for to help determine just what you are after. For example:
As a guideline, use the chart below to help calculate the correct battery
Divide the total watt hours by the voltage used X by 0.8 (maximum discharge allowance for deep cycle batteries,
0.4 for cranking batteries & 0.6 for marine batteries)
Add a further 25% safety margin for cable loss, over use and add 20% more if using the battery for cranking.
EG: Total Watt Hours 580/9.6 (12 x 0.8) = 60.4 AH + 25% = 75.5 Ah
