English

Subject field(s)
  • Computer Hardware
DEF

A standby battery kept fully charged for use during a primary power failure.

CONT

A typical battery backup board is a device designed to provide temporary power for periods ranging from 3 minutes for 128 kilobytes to 4.5 minutes for 32 kilobytes of dynamic random-access memory. It includes a watch-dog timer that sets off an external alarm when the central processing unit fails to activate the battery backup by a predeterminated time.

The distance covered by an electric vehicle over a designated test sequence from a fully charged traction battery to the end of test criteria.

OBS

The reference range is usually expressed in kilometres.

OBS

reference range: term and definition standardized by ISO.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fiabilité, contrôle et essais (Ingénierie)
  • Véhicules automobiles et bicyclettes
DEF

Distance parcourue par un véhicule électrique pendant une séquence d'essai spécifiée, la batterie de traction étant à pleine charge au début de l'essai.

Record 3 2011-05-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Storage Cells (Electr.)
DEF

A storage battery connected permanently in parallel with another power source; the battery normally handles only small charging or discharging currents, but takes over the entire load upon failure of the main supply.

DEF

A battery connected in parallel with a direct-voltage supply whose normal voltage is a little higher than the open-circuit voltage of the battery. A small charging current then flows to maintain the battery in a fully charged condition.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Accumulateurs (Électricité)
DEF

Batterie en état de charge constant, destinée à être transférée sur un circuit dont l'alimentation normale est défaillante.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Acumuladores (Electricidad)

Record 4 2008-05-14

English

Subject field(s)
  • Scientific Measurements and Analyses
  • Solar Energy
DEF

The voltage at which the charge controller will disconnect the array from the batteries to prevent overcharging.

CONT

When the battery is fully charged, the regulator disconnects the module in order to prevent the battery from becoming damaged. This is called ’high voltage disconnect’(HVD).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Mesures et analyse (Sciences)
  • Énergie solaire
DEF

Tension à laquelle le régulateur de charge d'un système photovoltaïque débranche les photopiles des modules afin de prévenir toute surcharge.

Spanish

Record 5 2008-05-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Cells and Batteries
  • Solar Energy
DEF

The ampere-hours removed from a fully charged cell or battery, expressed as a percentage of rated capacity.

OBS

For example, the removal of 25 ampere-hours from a fully charged 100 ampere-hours rated cell results in a 25% depth of discharge. Under certain conditions, such as discharge rates lower than that used to rate the cell, depth of discharge can exceed 100%.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Piles et accumulateurs
  • Énergie solaire
DEF

Ampères/heure consommés par une batterie à charge complète, exprimés en pourcentage de sa capacité nominale.

OBS

Ainsi, la consommation de 25 ampères/heure par une batterie de cent ampères/heure occasionnera une profondeur de décharge de 25 %.
