New Battery Vent Cap Is Safe And Reliable

An internally induced fire of industrial batteries can result in equipment downtime, property damage or even employee injury. Not with the new Vent Cap from Flow-Rite. Its integrated flame arrestor prevents fires and sparks from entering the case where they can ignite internal gases, yet quickly and easily removes for routine battery maintenance and watering.

Made in the USA, the Flow-Rite Vent Cap was engineered for unprecedented safety. Meeting SAE J1495 standards, Flow-Rite’s cap was thoroughly tested for flame and spark by independent battery laboratory JBI Corporation. This cap is great for use in California where Title 8, Section 5185, Changing and Charging Storage Batteries is enforced.

The Flow-Rite solution is a direct replacement for traditional unvented caps. With an industry standard quarter-turn bayonet lug, the polymer Vent Cap removes and reinstalls quickly. It features a low-profile design to safeguard against accidental damage and ensure maximum clearance if the battery is installed with reduced overhead access.

For battery manufacturers, the Flow-Rite Vent Cap can be custom branded. Offering shipment within 24 hours of order placement, the Vent Cap is a cost-effective option to add safety and security to the workplace.
