Take the lead
Battery Supplies has introduced a range of Lead Carbon batteries, alongside a brand new battery balancer.
As the name would suggest, the negative plates of the batteries are made of lead and carbon, combining the advantages of classic lead-acid batteries with those of a supercapacitor. The addition of carbon ensures that these batteries have a higher charge acceptance and therefore have a shorter charging time than the classic lead-acid batteries.
In addition, they supply more power, are more resistant to extremely low temperatures and guarantee a longer lifespan – up to 1300 cycles. This technology also suppresses sulfation better than other technologies, making the batteries suitable for PSOC applications such as solar.
One very common problem for batteries is that they can easily become unbalanced. In a set of two or more, if one is on a lower level, it will bring down the better battery as well and lead to a shorter lifespan – this goes for GEL, AGM and Open Lead Acid technologies. Battery Supplies’ new balancer is a device that will keep the battery set equalised, by using energy from the stronger battery as ‘by-pass energy’ for the weaker one, in order to keep the batteries in balance at all times to keep the life of the battery optimal.

Connected cleaning
With technical management and remote-controlled systems, cleaning machinery and operating equipment can work without the need to be driven by cleaners.
For IPC’s scrubbers, specifically the CT 51 and CT 71, the Group has developed the Telematics GPS innovation, a user-friendly digital tool which monitors the performance of scrubber dryers, sending all the collected data about your machine’s effective use to your chosen device: smartphone, tablet or PC.
The main benefits are related to work efficiency, job quality, energy saving and optimised costs. It also allows the user to check on machine positions and which operator is using it through the electronic user identification key. A range of dashboards provide the operator with information about battery life cycles, supervision over working hours, and motor absorption. And, if something unexpected goes on, the system can stop the machine to prevent serious damage.
The Multifunction Safety Control (MSC) is another of IPC’s technological innovations. This high-tech system ensures full protection for operators while using machines. It is applied to PW-C45, PW-H28 and other IPC high-pressure washers. Preventing floods from leaks in the hydraulic
circuit, it provides a reduction in energy consumption and maintenance costs thanks to the innovative self-diagnosis system.
For vacuum cleaners like the GS 2/62 FM, IPC relies on the Flow Mix, an exclusive patented technology providing the suction power of a standard three-motor machine with lower energy consumption. This technology enables the machine to increase water lift performance by 60% (up to 3,800 mmH2O).
By activating a small lever, the operator can choose to maximise the airflow to draw fine dust, or maximise the depression rate to vacuum heavy debris, including liquids, up to 3m in depth. According to specific application, the motor’s connection can be changed from parallel to series with just one touch.
