Battery Manual: Navair 1715bad1

The NAVAIR 17-15BAD-1 is the primary technical manual for Operation and Service Instructions with Illustrated Parts Breakdown for Naval Aircraft and Support Equipment Storage Batteries. It serves as the standard for maintaining various battery types used across Navy aircraft. Manual Overview

Capacity Testing: The manual defines "deep cycle" requirements and provides formulas for discharging batteries based on their ampere-hour (AH) ratings. For a 60 AH battery, it might prescribe a specific discharge current and voltage cut-off to verify condition. navair 1715bad1 battery manual

1. Fully charge battery per 6.2.
2. Let battery rest 2–4 hours (open circuit, no load).
3. Discharge at 5A constant current until voltage reaches 20.0V.
4. Record time to termination. Calculate capacity:
   Ah = 5A × hours
   Example: 3.0 hours = 15 Ah (100% of rating)
5. Acceptance criteria:

   8.1 Signs That the Battery is Beyond Service

   • Capacity <80% of rated after two consecutive reconditioning cycles.
   • Physical damage (cracked case, melted terminals).
   • Age >7 years from manufacture date.
