2-Pound Disposable Zinc-Air Battery, Non-Reserve BA-558()/U, 3.3-Pound Disposable Zinc-Air Battery, Non-Reserve, BA-559(A)/U.

Abstract

The research described resulted in the development of two disposable zinc-air, non-reserve batteries. The BA-558()/U is a 2-pound, 14 volt, 15 ampere-hour unit. The BA-559(A)/U is a 3.3 pound, 24 volt, 15 ampere-hour unit. Performance and mechanical tests as delineated in Electronics Command Development Description El-CD2078-0001A 7 July 1969 for BA-558()/U and Proposed Performance Specification, 23 August 1972 for BA-559(A)/U were accomplished and all criteria were exceeded. The report contains the individual test results and the details of the construction of the batteries. (Author Modified Abstract)
