634-6045: Battery Assembly

A Wet Battery is a type of lead-acid battery to power the electrical components in a machine. The term "wet" refers to the battery's design, which includes liquid electrolyte in the form of a dilute sulfuric acid solution. It consists of a plastic case that houses a series of lead plates submerged in the electrolyte solution. These lead plates are arranged in cells, with each cell providing approximately 2 volts. The cells are connected in series to produce a total voltage of 12 volts. Attributes: • Provides reliable starting power • Ensures proper functioning of the electrical unit Applications: A Wet Battery is used to provide the initial electrical power required to start the engine. Once the engine is running, the alternator takes over the task of generating electrical power for the machine's electrical systems and recharging the battery.
