Canadus Advanced Desulfation Technology

By pulsing current at very high frequency and high amplitude, Canadus Advanced Desulfation Technology overcomes the activation energy necessary to destabilize lead sulfate. Sulfuric acid is re-formed, bringing the battery back to “like new” condition.

The following series of five photomicrographs, all shown at 550X magnification, illustrates the conversion of a fresh, active battery plate to a heavily sulfated inactive plate, and its transformation back to an active plate after using Canadus Advanced Desulfation Technology.

Figure 2 shows a battery plate that has been coated by dense, hardened, crystalline lead sulfate. Notice that no active lead sponge is visible.

Figure 3 shows the partial recovery of a heavily sulfated plate following Canadus use. The size of the lead sulfate crystals is decreased, and the crystals are pitted as they are destroyed.
