Custom battery case assemblies are one of the most important components of many systems. It’s durability is crucial to the proper operation of the entire system, which is the reason that many of our clients seek out customized solutions to this need.
We produce and offer a variety of custom battery cables, connectors and multi connection battery terminal solutions for your varying needs.
The use of this solution is popular in many fields, from transportation vehicles, OEM manufacturing, generator sets and more. In generator sets the battery cable assembly is one of the main components, or can be an optional bonus to have it custom made in other cases.
Simple and Complex Battery Cable Assembly Systems
In smaller setups, the battery case assembly consists of a single cable with connectors on both ends. Larger and more complex systems, however, where the starter is fed from more than one battery, will require to run the power via multiple cables.
The starter is essentially a motor which gives the generator its initial push to get it working. Once that’s done, the starter falls silent and the main diesel or gas motor will take it from there. To provide this initial push, the starter has to produce a lot of force and the bigger the generator is, the more amperage will be required to provide electricity and create this force.
Where is the Genset Used?
The generator setup is usually used where consistent electric power is needed to feed machinery and equipment, but where there is no access to a consistent electric grid. Emergency generators are one such example, as well as setups that operate outdoors where no grid access has been established yet.
This entire construct relies on the battery cable assembly, if it is to work at all, hence the importance of custom battery cables and a custom multi connection battery terminal in most cases. One that would be protected from damage from heat, cold, humidity or even flame.
Once those cables and connectors were produced with lead terminals which have since then driven out of the market due to their toxic nature. The new battery cable assembly now follows the RoHS guidelines and can handle very high voltages and currents.
We have vast experience producing custom battery cable assemblies for multiple clients, and can handle a project of any magnitude.
Whether you require maintenance, design from scratch or an optimization of an existing system, Star Manufacturing is here to help.
