What is the nominal voltage of lead acid?

The nominal voltage of lead acid is 2 volts per cell, however when measuring the open circuit voltage, the OCV of a charged and rested battery should be 2.1V/cell. Keeping lead acid much below 2.1V/cell will cause the buildup of sulfation. While on float charge, lead acid measures about 2.25V/cell, higher during normal charge.

What are the characteristics of a lead acid battery?

Discharge characteristics: Generally quite curved, particularly at higher discharge rate. Best performance with intermittent discharge. The lead acid battery uses lead as the anode and lead dioxide as the cathode, with an acid electrolyte.

How many volts does a lead acid battery take?

While on float charge, lead acid measures about 2.25V/cell, higher during normal charge. In consumer applications, NiCd and NiMH are rated at 1.20V/cell; industrial, aviation and military batteries adhere to the original 1.25V.

How many lead-acid cells make a 12 volt battery?

What is a good float voltage for a lead-acid battery?

For a lead-acid battery, the value above the OCV is approximately 0.12 volts. This “adder” voltage will vary very slightly (about +/- 0.02V) for different plate additives and construction, but it is a very good rule of thumb. Although the following shows some example calculations, the manufacturer’s recommended float voltage should always be used.
