What is the reason for sparks on the surface of 2.5 ton mining locomotive battery?

Once sparks appear on the surface of the battery of the 2.5-ton mining electric locomotive, it means that the battery has serious leakage. It should be stopped in time.

There are generally two types of leakage causes:

First, the electrolyte overflows for various reasons. If the electrolyte is injected too much, the injection fluid accidentally leaks to the outside, the battery cover is damaged, or the cock is loose when driving, etc. A galvanic cell is then formed and discharged in the circuit, so that sparks appear on the battery cover. The second is the leakage of electricity somewhere. After disconnecting the fuse, use a multimeter to detect it.

In the former, the electrolyte can be cleaned with clean water, and then an appropriate amount of electrolyte can be carefully added when adding electrolyte. Repair the damaged battery cover in time. Where there is leakage, it can be repaired and replaced.

The above is a brief introduction to the causes and treatment of electric sparks on the surface of 2.5-ton mining electric locomotive batteries.
