PCA (Pulse Crank Amps) is a rating specifically geared towards starting applications only. PCA is a short duration (5 seconds), high rate discharge measurement generally used in the powersport industry. PCA is a rating used by Odyssey batteries.

Unlike CCA and MCA the pulse cranking ampere (PCA) rating does not have an "official" definition; however, we believe that for true engine start purposes, a 30 second discharge is unrealistic. With that in mind, the PCA is a very short duration (typically about 3 seconds) high rate discharge. Because the discharge is for such a short time, it is more like a pulse.(Return to Top)

MCA is a measurement of the starting power of a battery at 32?F under a load (ampere draw) for 30 seconds with the end voltage maintained at 1.20 volts per cell. MCA is generally 20% higher than CCA (cold cranking amps).

CCA (cold cranking amps) is a measurement of the starting power of a battery at 0?F under a load (ampere draw) for 30 seconds with the end voltage maintained at 1.20 volts per cell. Several variations of CCA ratings may be applied to a battery including; MCA (marine cranking amps) or CA (Cranking amps), which are generally 20% higher than CCA (cold cranking amps) and reflect higher temperature testing.

Amps is an abbreviation for amperes. Amperes is the technical term for the amount of current flowing through wiring. A good analogy has always been to think of amps as water pressure through a pipe. Low pressure, the water trickles out but high pressure and that hose can, knock the socks off you. Wiring is sized to handle different amperes, therefore your circuit breaker / fuses are rated for different amperes. Circuit breakers protect wiring.

Ans: A pulse is the broken down time duration for which the customer is billed. It provides the customer with the benefit of being billed for almost exactly or close to the duration for which he actually talks. A pulse can come in various durations like: 15 seconds, 30 seconds or even 1 second. In case of a 30 second pulse, if the customer talks for 20 seconds he would be billed for the 30 seconds.

Sodium PCA or NaPCA functions in human skin as a humectant, a substance that attracts water. Without enough NaPCA in the skin, the moisture level will drop and skin will dry out. Without enough moisture, nutrients cannot be properly delivered to the skin cells. NaPCA is the most powerful, non-toxic humectant known, and the most important humectant in the skin. - top -

All the cells of the body have a weak, natural electric current flowing through them. The currents are caused by electrically charged particles in the cells called ions. Ions affect the metabolism, or the work of the cell. PMFT is a method of applying a magnetic field to the cell which sends a weak electrical signal, influencing the interaction of the ions, and the flow of nutrients in the cell. Enhanced circulation and nutrient exchange can speed the healing process and reduce down time.

Chinese pulse taking is a bit different than taking a traditional pulse. Not only am I feeling for a pulse rate but the quality and consistency of the pulse. There are 12 pulse positions on each wrist that are palpated. Each position corresponds to a specific channel/meridian and organ. There are 27 individual qualities that reflect overall health. If there are any problems, they may appear in the pulse.

Sometimes it is easier to brainstorm about a situation with an independent party who can help you understand what some of the resources are available to you. When confronted with illness or experiencing a medical error or loss of a loved one, just sharing your experience can help relieve some of the pressure.

A:PCA naturally, effectively, and gently removes all Heavy Metals, Toxins, Plaque, Triclosimines, PCB’s, Pesticide Residues, Yeast Forms, Parasites, Infectious Prions, Viral Residues, MycoPlasmas, Vaccination Residues, and anything that is NOT naturally supposed to be a part of the Blood, Lymphatic Fluid, or Cerebral Spinal Fluid. PCA becomes a natural living part of our immune system. A:Definetly not.

Home Care Solutions uses an extensive screening process with all prospective PCA's. All PCA's are "hand-picked" by our staff. In addition, Home Care Solutions conducts pre-screening, a lengthy interview process and a detailed orientation before PCA's are dispersed to a clients home. All of our PCA's undergo a thorough reference and criminal background check. We only hire PCA's who are passionate about caring for

Our PCA's are both male and female, ranging in age from college students to people in their sixties who have a lot to give to others. These wonderful people come from all walks of life. Some have been professional PCA's, such as retired nurses or nursing assistants. Some have found that office jobs don't allow them to express their need to share with others. Many of them have cared for family members or neighbors on a long-term basis.

You are always able to change a PCA, for any reason. We only ask that you give us adequate time to find a suitable replacement. If you are in any

The marine cranking ampere (MCA) rating refers to the number of amperes a battery can support for 30 seconds at a temperature of 32°F until the battery voltage drops to 1.20 volts per cell, or 7.20 volts for a 12V battery. Thus, a 12V battery that carries a MCA rating of 600 CCA tells us that the battery will provide 600 amperes for 30 seconds at 32°F before the voltage falls to 7.20V. Note that the MCA is sometimes referred to as the cranking amperes or CA.(Return to Top)

Similar to CCA; Cranking amps is a measure of the number of amperes a lead acid battery at 32 degrees F can deliver for 30 seconds and maintain at least 1.2 volts per cell. (CA ratings are more commonly used in climates where temperatures rarely drop to 0F.)
