Sulfation is a buildup of lead sulfate crystals and is the number one cause of early battery failure in lead-acid batteries. Sulfation occurs when a battery is deprived of a full charge, it builds up and remains on battery plates. When too much sulfation occurs, it can impede the chemical to electrical conversion.Click to see full answer. Likewise, people ask, how do you know if a battery is sulfated?If the battery cannot reach higher than 10.5 volts when being charged, then the battery has a dead cell. If the battery is fully charged (according to the battery charger) but the voltage is 12.5 or less, the battery is sulfated.Secondly, what does it mean to Desulfate a battery? Sulfation occurs when a lead acid battery is deprived of a full charge. This is common with starter batteries in cars driven in the city with load-hungry accessories. A motor in idle or at low speed cannot charge the battery sufficiently. Beside this, can you charge a sulfated battery? Batteries develop sulfation each time they are used (discharged – recharged). If they are overcharged, undercharged or left discharged for just a few days, they will rapidly develop sulfate. It must be charged enough to prevent the battery from dropping below 12.4 Volts* (2.07 volts / cell).How do you remove battery sulfation? How to Remove Sulfation From Batteries Remove the plastic covers from the top of the battery cells. Look inside the battery cells. Trickle distilled water carefully into each cell. Place the clamp on the end of the red positive battery cable from the battery charger onto the positive battery terminal.
