PKCELL Lithium Batteries Ensure Long-Term Reliability for Canadian Smart Parking Sensors

PKCELL Lithium Batteries for Smart Parking Sensors

Background / Challenge

A Canadian company specializing in the development of smart parking sensor systems for intelligent transportation and smart city applications required a highly dependable power solution for its outdoor devices. These sensors operate year-round, making them subject to the extreme temperature fluctuations of the Canadian climate, including severe cold in winter.

The customer's requirements for a primary lithium battery solution were stringent:

Longevity: A service life of 15 years or more was required to minimize maintenance costs.
Extreme Temperature Tolerance: The battery needed a wide operating range, specifically from -55°C to +85°C.
Performance: Must provide a stable 3.6 voltage output , have a compact size, and maintain a low self-discharge rate.
Supply Assurance: The need for a reliable, long-term supply partner was critical for mass production.

Solution

PKCELL recommended a suite of Lithium Thionyl Chloride batteries to meet the diverse power needs of the customer's parking sensor system. These primary lithium cells are known for their high energy density, wide temperature range, and stable voltage. PKCELL's recommended models included:

ER14505: Ideal for low-power sensor nodes.
ER26500: Used as the main power source for mid-power sensors.
ER34615: Suitable for long-term, independently operating control units.

The initial batch was delivered successfully, and testing confirmed the batteries' excellent performance. The customer specifically reported high capacity, strong low-temperature performance, and stable voltage output, perfectly meeting the operational needs, especially in Canadian winter conditions.
