What is a battery cold plate?

Built with lightweight aluminum, the battery cold plate stabilizes battery cell temperature and provides optimal temperature uniformity. Featuring counterflow and double-side cell loading designs, it extracts heat from the lithium-ion battery cells and enables fast charging. Copyright © 2025 Dana Limited. All Rights Reserved

What does a battery cabinet power?

Battery cabinets are designed to hold batteries used to power an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system. In the event of a power disruption or outage, the UPS system ensures that your devices continue to operate from the energy stored in the batteries in the battery cabinet.

Why do lithium ion batteries need cold plates?

The high sensitivity of Lithium Ion batteries towards temperature extremities makes Cold Plates a crucial component for battery thermal management. A key aspect of our cold plate design process involves the optimization of their internal flow paths, achieved through iterative Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations.

What is a cold plate?

Alkraft’s Cold Plates are designed to provide consistent cooling, ensuring temperature uniformity throughout the battery surface. This uniform cooling is essential for maintaining battery efficiency and longevity, preventing hot spots that could degrade battery performance over time.

What is the battery capacity of the UPS system?

The UPS system uses batteries in the battery cabinet to provide power during disruptions. The battery capacity is 34.6 kWh. The system is lithium-ion based and can support up to 5 MW in parallel.

Why do we need a backup battery cabinet?

Through cutting-edge research and innovation, advanced engineered power products for backup battery cabinets have become essential to our energy future. When the power goes out, battery backups ensure that the Internet, cloud-based data, financial and health records stay accessible.
