WATTALPS chooses CEJN's ultraFLOW quick connectors for its advanced Lithium-ion batteries

WATTALPS is meeting the rising demand for high-performance batteries built for the most challenging industries. Focusing on innovation and reliability, the company partnered with CEJN to enhance the efficiency and flexibility of its advanced battery systems by integrating CEJN ultraFLOW quick connect couplings.

French company WATTALPS is a leader in designing and manufacturing high-performance batteries for demanding industries such as mining, maritime, agriculture, transportation, and construction. Founded in 2017, the company has quickly built a strong reputation for delivering reliable battery solutions that are built to handle extreme working conditions.

WATTALPS focuses on the safety and robustness of its products. Its batteries are certified IP67 and IP6K9K and are equipped with a BMS (Battery Management Systems) that meets automotive standards. CEJN couplings integrated into WATTALPS batteries have successfully passed rigorous tests (vibration, fire resistance, immersion tests, etc.). "It is crucial for the quality of our batteries that each supplier meets its commitments in terms of quality, cost, and delivery times”, says Matthieu Desbois-Renaudin, co-founder of WATTALPS. “CEJN has successfully met these expectations," he continued.

Enhancing efficiency in tough environments with CEJN ultraFLOW

Extreme temperatures are the biggest threat to battery longevity. Cold can halve their lifespan or reduce it by a factor of 10 in severe conditions. Similarly, heat can shorten battery lifespan by a factor of 3, or even by a factor of 7 under extreme conditions, due to cell degradation that affects others within the circuit.

WATTALPS batteries, designed for heavy-duty vehicles, are built to perform in tough environments where temperature changes can impact both performance and lifespan. Known for maintaining optimal operating temperatures, these batteries ensure reliable performance and long-term durability, even under the harshest conditions. To further enhance their battery systems, WATTALPS turned to CEJN's ultraFLOW couplings, which simplify assembly, allow easy integration into various equipment configurations, and ensure robust performance. "The integration of CEJN's couplings was driven by their differentiating features, including low-pressure drop, leak-free operation, and high resistance to shocks and corrosion," says Desbois-Renaudin.

A reliable partner

Matthieu Desbois-Renaudin emphasized the importance of partnering with suppliers to deliver high-quality components on time. Beyond reliability, CEJN's operational flexibility has been instrumental, allowing them to respond swiftly to urgent customer demands. This agility in supply chain management has strengthened the partnership.

The integration of CEJN's ultraFLOW couplings represents a strategic enhancement for WATTALPS, enabling them to uphold their reputation for excellence in battery technology while ensuring flexibility and reliability in their product offerings. "This partnership not only supports our growth but also reinforces our position as pioneers in the field of high-performance battery solutions," Desbois-Renaudin concludes.
