CEGASA, is an 86 year old company that has been a premier world-class manufacturer of power systems for applications demanding high performance and reliability, such as military, scientific, industrial, commercial, research etc…Our batteries are used all over the world in subsea exploration, seismic networks (advance earthquake warnings), tsunami data equipment, volcano eruption alarms, glacier tr
acking, landslide monitors, and radiation alarms. In upper right corner you can choose EN to translate to English version. Cegasa is the world's leading manufacturer of non hazardous Zinc-Air Alkaline technology industrial batteries. Our technology present in the five continents is the result of more than 50 years of research and constant investment in the development of new materials and formulations that allow us to offer the market industrial batteries with the highest energy density, and the only ones that ensure 2 years of operation in uninterrupted conditions and with maximum stability in the voltage output. Cegasa has developed an exclusive technology for the manufacture of the cathode, which allows a higher volumetric energy density and a greater capacity to supply power to the cell. Alkaline Zinc-air provides the highest energy density of any battery system available on the market, and at a very low cost. This advantage derives from the use of oxygen as a reagent for the cathode. It allows the zinc-air cell to be filled with more zinc "fuel", the only material consumed during discharge. This increase in the amount of anode material allows the cell to provide up to 8 times more capacity than conventional zinc anode systems that must contain its oxidant inside the cell. For example, alkaline cells store oxygen in the form of manganese dioxide, what supposes approximately 60% of the weight of the cell. In other technologies, batteries contain more or less the same amount of anode material as cathode, so their useful life is limited by the material that is consumed first. Cegasa's technology is best suited for applications where the devices demand continuous low-power charging, isolated from the grid, and where very long battery life is required.
