Gripo AGM Batteries #AGM U1R‑66 (2)

Gripo AGM Batteries

AGM is an acronym for absorbed glass mat.  The battery’s elec‑ trolyte is fully absorbed in a matted glass fibres, creating a spill‑proof, leak‑proof battery design that doesn’t leak acid like flooded batteries will if tipped on their side.  The glass fibres also enable a lower electrical resistance, which optimizes current flow plates for a more efficient transfer of power.

The glass mats in AGM batteries are wrapped around the positive battery plates, which helps prevent damage from vibration and extend cycling. The battery’s plates are packed tightly in the case partitions, providing further vibration protection. AGM battery designs can have over twice the cycle life of a conventional flooded product in the right application. They also offer many times the vibration resistance of  conventional flooded batteries.

Advantages

• Factory activated : Ready to use.
• Maintenance free, never‑add‑water design.
• Lower internal resistance for quicker power flows

and faster recharge rates.

• Slower self‑discharge rates for better off‑season storage.
• Longer service life with superior cycling capability.
• Safer operation from spill‑proof, leak‑proof design which protects people and equipment, and enables installation in virtually any position (upside down installation is not recommended)
