The starting sizing is based on a Base Cranking Current which is related to the engine displacement. The Base
Cranking Current is multiplied with a number of coefficients which are dependent on the input parameters of the
actual sizing. The standard values gives the coefficient 1,00. Changing the input parameters results in coefficients
higher or lower that 1,00. The coefficients are multiplied to give the Total Correction Factor. The Base Cranking
Current is multiplied with the Total Correction Factor and the result is the Required Current.
The selected cell must be able to deliver the Required Current for 30 seconds with a minimum voltage of
0,87V/cell.

Battery 20 x SBH 393 + SGT2
During the last stage of high-rate charging (end of charge and during overcharge), the battery is emitting gases
(oxygen-hydrogen mixture). The purpose of ventilating a battery location or enclosure is to maintain the hydrogen gas
concentration below the 4% hydrogen threshold. Battery accommodation rooms are to be considered as safe from
explosions, when by the natural or forced ventilation the concentration of hydrogen gas is kept below this safety limit.
Note that special regulations for battery installation and ventilation may be valid in your area.
Ventilation air flow Q
Q = v x q x s x n x Igas x Crt[ࡃ³ (m³/h)

Natural ventilation
The amount of ventilation air flow shall preferably be ensured by natural ventilation, otherwise by forced ventilation.
For natural ventilation, battery rooms or enclosures require an air inlet and an air outlet with a free area of opening
calculated by the formula A > 28 x Q (cm²). The air velocity is assumed to be 0,1 m/sec.

Free area of openings - inlet & outlet (cm²) 1,98*28=55,5 19,81*28=554,6 79,23*28=2218,4
The above calculations are done according to the IEC 62485-2 standard.
Always check local regulations.

H2 emissions
The calculated H2 emission value is the amount of H2 that will be released from the cells under normal charging
conditions without safety factors.
H2 Emission = 0.42 x 0.001 x Crt x Ihydrogen x n dm³/h (litre/h)
Actual gassing = 0.63 x 0.001 x Crt x Ihydrogen x n dm³/h (litre/h)

IBoost = current for the boost charge under fully charged condition 10 mA/Ah

Heat dissipation
The heat dissipation during float is normally used for dimensioning the cooling system. The cells will also generate
heat during discharge and recharge but the generated heat will be absorbed by the plates and the electrolyte and will
slowly dissipate to the surrounding air.

Environmental footprint
Battery 20 x SBH 393
Global Warming Potential (GWP)
As explained in the IPPC (Intergovernmental

Panel on Climate Change (2001)), the Global
Warming Potential (GWP) is a measurement
of greenhouse gas emissions, such as CO2 and
methane. These emissions are causing an
increase in the absorption of radiation emitted
by the earth, magnifying the natural
greenhouse effect. It is expressed in kg CO2
equivalent and measures the Environmental
Footprint of a product.
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)

As part of its environmental commitment, Saft gives priority to recycled raw materials over virgin raw materials,
reduces its plants’ air and water releases year after year, minimizes water usage, reduces fossil energy
consumption and associated CO2 emissions, and ensures that its customers have recycling solutions for their spent
batteries.
To reach this target, Saft is using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) which is a standardized scientific method for the
systematic analysis of all mass and energy flows as well as environmental impacts attributed to a product system,
from raw material acquisition to end-of-life management.
To provide the best environmental information to its customers Saft has been performing since 2010 comparative
LCA of several battery technologies used for back-up solution. A third party is also involved to perform a critical
review of the data and ensure that the highest level of compliance with the ISO 14040/44 standards is met.
Data used in this comparative LCA were updated in 2017 and the previous LCA study was enlarged to more battery
types. By interpolation of these verified LCA calculations, the Global Warming Potential of different Ni-Cd and
Lead-acid batteries used for back-up applications and sized through Basics is evaluated and displayed given that
the user indicates the expected life time of the battery.
Page 11/17
Estimated life of Lead-Acid batteries

Estimated life for Lead-Acid batteries is based upon the half-life formula
L0=life time in years at the temperature T0

T1=temperature increase required to reduced life time with 50%
T= System design temperature and are taken from the inputted value “Nominal temperature”
The constants used for VR Lead-Acid is well known facts that is found in several VR Lead-Acid manufacturers
documentation[i]. L0 = 10 years, T0 = 25 °C, T1 = 8.3 °C, T= Tnom
Number of cells and capacity comparison between NiCd and VR Lead-Acid batteries
Number of cells differs between NiCd and VR Lead-Acid batteries with the nominal voltage difference. The
conversion factor is 1.2V/2.0V = 0.6. Number of VR Lead-Acid cells is assumed to be made of 6 (12V blocks). The
capacity comparison between NiCd and VR Lead-Acid cells is assumed to be equal.
