Cell Pack Solutions battery packs for underwater applications using Tadiran lithium cells.

Battery packs for underwater oceanographic equipment need to be robust and last a long time. Custom engineered battery packs are often used by universities, research institutes and oceanographic survey operations to power equipment used underwater.


Cell Pack Solutions design and build battery packs for underwater applications using Tadiran lithium cells built into different configurations, with specific design considerations to enable them to be installed into the equipment - lithium cells are particularly good for use in harsh marine environments where temperatures and conditions can sometimes become extreme.
 

The battery pack is designed to power a particular piece of oceanographic equipment, and is popular with universities and research institutes. The particular characteristics of lithium batteries – especially lithium thionyl chloride manufactured by Tadiran means the battery pack will be more suitable than other lower powered battery chemistries such as alkaline.
 

The excellent properties of lithium batteries including: high and stable voltage, high capacity, wide operating temperature range and up to 10 years of shelf life allow Cell Pack Solutions to build battery packs to the wide variety of specifications they receive from oceanographic customers.
 

Cell Pack Solutions have over a decade of experience in the design and manufacture of custom engineered battery packs for demanding applications - working closely with many of the world's leading manufacturers of industrial batteries they will select the best for the users application and integrate them into the design.
