Lithium-ion
Li-ion technology is the latest generation of batteries
and are lighter than tradition nickel-based batteries
with better energy density and require less maintenance. There are multiple forms of li-ion batteries,
which vary in composition and construction.
"True Blue Power batteries use the safest li-ion
chemistry available," explained Todd Winter, president and CEO of True Blue Power. "Our batteries
provide aviators with an unmatched advantage of
increased power, significantly reduced weight, less
maintenance, lower overall cost of ownership and
extended useful life."
Winter continued: "We recently announced the
certification of our new fifth-generation (Gen5) liion main ship battery family. The new, on-condition
TB20 (20 amp-hour), TB30 (30 amp-hour) and TB40 (40
amp-hour) received an impressive C179b Class A-4B
rating, meeting the FAA's latest and highest level of
lithium battery requirements."
True Blue Power batteries are designed to meet the
needs of a variety of aircraft and platforms. Several
of the company's partners are pursuing new STCs
(Supplemental Type Certification) for their batteries
on roto and fixed-wing aircraft. "Airwolf Aerospace,
for example, is in the process of securing STCs with
our li-ion main ship batteries for 18 helicopter models,"
Winter explained. "Our goal is to make things easier
for OEMs, owners, operators and technicians by supplying an intelligent battery system that satisfies their
airframe and operating requirements."
True Blue Power li-ion batteries are FAA-certified
and are designed with a built-in automatic heater.
They do not need to be removed from the aircraft in
extreme cold temperatures and deliver both superior
high temperature and cold weather performance (-40
degrees Celsius to +70 degrees Celsius).
"Our main ship batteries feature an intelligent
Battery Management System (BMS), which are engineered to protect against overcharge, over discharge,
over-current, short circuit, over-temperature and
under-temperature," Winter noted. "NanoPhosphate
is stable chemically, providing the foundation for safe
systems. It delivers superior safety and abuse tolerance
compared to metal oxide li-ion chemistries."
True Blue Power
batteries are designed
for a variety of aircraft
and platforms.
