What is a Semi Traction Battery?
Microtex Semi Traction batteries are tubular plate lead-acid batteries. Also, called deep cycle batteries due to their intense discharge requirements. Semi traction batteries are designed to supply a relatively small amount of DC current over long periods of hours up to 80% depth of discharge and on its subsequent charge. Specially designed lead alloys for positive and negative grids provide better current conductivity to the terminals with lower internal resistance. The presence of tin and grain refiners ensures a high-performance plate resistant to grid corrosion and offers higher efficiency in charge-discharge cycles.

Battery Mistakes All Semi-Traction Battery Owners Need To Avoid!
Do not mix new batteries with old batteries
Semi Traction Battery reconditioning: often reconditioning an old battery can become quite a costly affair if you keep replacing dead batteries one by one; even the new battery will drain out rapidly as the old batteries tend to draw more out of the new one.
Semi Traction replacement batteries: It is best to have an expert from the company visit you to have a thorough inspection of the Semi Traction batteries after a complete charge, and compare the cell voltage, and specific gravity to decide the state of charge & whether it needs to be replaced at all.
Avoid any sort of additives or desulfation methods
How to recondition Semi Traction batteries? Batteries are electrochemical devices. All chemicals have a half-life period beyond which regeneration with chemical additives or desulfators for batteries has little effect if any temporary.
The normal mode of failure of Semi Traction batteries is usually due to grid corrosion if the lead alloys are not designed properly. Desulfators cannot repair corroded grids.
