Super-Heavy Duty Battery

A starter battery that is particularly suitable for use in off-road vehicles agricultural, or construction machinery.

In order to withstand the increased mechanical stresses caused by strong inherent vibrations or uneven terrain, batteries for such vehicles are designed to be particularly resistant to vibration, at least in accordance with class V3 (according to EN 50342-1). In order to achieve this, the grid plates are embedded in a special separator pocket made of glass fibre mats and compressed into the housing so that they do not become loose even under extremely strong permanent load and as little active material as possible is lost.
