Maintenance-Free Battery

Version 1

Low maintenance Battery (A) with fluid electrolyte (wet battery). This Battery (A) can be identified by its removable cell caps.

Lead-acid battery which requires that acid level be checked at regular intervals and, if necessary, be topped up with distilled water.

This battery type is most commonly equipped with a visual indicator. The visual indicator gives information about the charge status and acid level of the Battery (A) via a color display.

Version 2

Maintenance-free Battery (A) with fluid electrolyte (wet battery). Instead of cell caps, this Battery (A) has a cover over the cells. It serves as a cap after being filled when produced.

CAUTION!
Do not remove the cover from the battery cells in any case. This will damage the battery housing and then the battery (A) will be unusable.

Lead-acid battery which does not require topping up with distilled water, under normal usage conditions. The term is commonly used for closed Batteries (A) with fixed electrolyte.

This battery type is most commonly equipped with a visual indicator. The visual indicator gives information about the charge status and acid level of the Battery (A) via a color display.

AGM Battery

Maintenance-free Battery (A) with fixed electrolyte.

In a lead-acid battery the electrolyte is contained in a micro-glass mat (AGM - absorbent glass mat). The Battery (A) is closed and equipped with breather valves.

• The work procedure for testing and charging gel batteries and AGM batteries is the same.

• When replacing an AGM battery, another AGM battery must be installed.

Gel Battery

Maintenance-free Battery (A) with fixed electrolyte.

In a lead-acid battery the electrolyte is fixed in a gel. The Battery (A) is closed and equipped with breather valves.

• The work procedure for testing and charging gel batteries and AGM batteries is the same.
