GENERAL USER INFORMATION

NOMINAL RATING OF THE BATTERY – Ah
Quantity of current (A) a battery can provide in the time (h) normally considered in 10 hours.
VRLA/GEL BATTERIES
A gel battery is a Lead-Calcium battery with positive and negative plates immersed in a gelatinous solution. It is hermetically
sealed and requires no maintenance. These batteries are usually used in intense conditions. Their strength makes them particu-
larly suited for motorcycles, off-road vehicles, operating machinery and boats.
STANDARD LIQUID / WET BATTERIES
A lead battery with positive and negative plates immersed in a water and sulphuric acid solution. They may be hermetic or fitted
with caps for maintenance. This is the most commonly used battery in the automotive sector.
AGM SPIRAL BATTERIES
Gas recombination batteries (AGM) are continuous band batteries in which the same plate, electrolyte solution and silicon and
polymeric fibre separators are rolled in a spiral. They are maintenance-free, with a high starting surge designed specifically for
extreme and heavy-duty conditions. They withstand intense charge-discharge cycles.
AGM FLAT PLATE BATTERIES
FLAT PLATE gas recombination batteries (AGM) are sealed batteries using a VRLA pressure-control system. In this case, the
electrolyte solution is held by fibreglass separators generally placed between the plates. These high-performance, maintenance-
free batteries are ideal for intense cycles, high loads and working in partial states of charge. These batteries are suited to the
latest generation Start & Stop systems.
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
This device is marked with a recycling symbol. This means that when no longer in use it must be disposed of separa-
tely in an appropriate disposal site and not with normal household refuse. This is a benefit for the environment and an
advantage for all.
