Complete topping-up equipment
for Alcad Ni-Cd batteries

Alcad’s complete topping-up equipment consists of a filling pistol
“cell topper” and a water containment unit connected by a flexible hose.
The filling pistol, which has a flow rate of 8 litres/min., shuts off at the
correct level when the appropriate spacer tube is used.
Designed to simplify the water replenishment procedure for large sizes or
numbers of cells, the equipment is effective especially where the electrolyte
levels cannot be seen easily.
