Customer's No.: X4617S Re tests on 5V Battery (173) This battery was removed from the M.S. due to one Oldham cell having failed (see report SC6414-1-2). This has been replaced by an Exide 6RR25-1 cell fitted with threaded rubber separation. On low rate discharge through a constant external resistance of 1.80 w only 26.4 ampere hours were obtained. The Oldham cells showed positive weakness on the Cadmium. On high rate discharge through a constant external resistance of .150 w Initial amperes = 104 Time to 100 " = 4.1 min " " 90 " = 6.4 " " " 80 " = 7.3 " Negative weakness was shown on Signed: (Contd.) This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work. | ||
