East Penn Manufacturing has unveiled its exclusive Armor Alloy Technology at the 7×24 International Exchange Conference in San Antonio, Texas.
The advanced technology enhances the Deka HRC range of products that power critical data centre operations, particularly for hyperscale applications.
Developed through extensive scientific research, the Armor Alloy Technology merges a pure lead grid with a proprietary mix of engineered alloys to enhance strength, durability and conductivity. Combined with East Penn’s Compu-Press, Encapsulation and Hydro-Formation processes, these materials act as layers of protection against performance degradation.
“We feel really good about bringing a battery technology to the market that is laser-focused on meeting the needs of the customer,” said Bruce Cole, East Penn’s senior VP of Industrial Sales. “With the daily challenges of rising costs and unforeseen disruptions affecting data centres, we need protection from this continual rise of uncertainty. Our customers deserve to have the upmost confidence in uninterrupted power by using batteries with Armor Battery Technology. They deserve a confidence level that is much higher and brings greater value than batteries that just offer pure lead as a solution.”
The Deka HRC batteries are designed to optimise capital investment while ensuring peak reliability. Each unit is tested for 100% initial string capacity per IEEE 1188 standards and delivers 600–950 W.P.C. at 15 minutes to 1.67 V.P.C.
