Battery Desulfator Circuit Explained
Posted by hitman
Sulphation in lead acid batteries is quite common and a big problem because the process
completely hampers the efficiency of the battery. Charging
C harging a lead acid battery through PWM
method is said to initiate desulfation, helping recover battery efficiency to some
s ome levels.
What is Sulphation in Lead Acid Batteries
Sulphation is a process where the sulfuric acid present inside lead acid batteries react with the
plates overtime to form layers of white powder like substance over the plates.
This layer deposit seriously deteriorates the chemical actions inside the battery while charging
cha rging or
discharging making the battery inefficient with its power delivering capabilities.
Normally this happens when the battery is not being used for long periods and the charging,
discharging processes are not done very frequently.
Unfortunately there's no effective way of tackling this problem,

that the jammed

These high current charging pulses should be
b e well optimized through some control circuit and
should be diagnosed carefully while implementing the
t he process.
Implementing the method through PWM controlled circuit is probably the best way of doing it.
Here's an excerpt from wikipedia, which says,
sa ys,
"
Desulfation is achieved by high current pulses produced between the terminals of the battery. This
technique, also called pulse conditioning, breaks down the sulfate crystals that are formed on the battery

The controlling of the PWM will solely depend ono n an individuals personal preference, so should
be done correctly as per the battery manufacturers instructions.
Failing to follow the correct procedures may lead to fatal accidents with the battery, due to a
possible explosion of the battery.
