AGM TECHNOLOGY - THE DIFFERENCE
|
Some of the main differences between the old
vented lead acid batteries and the LIFELIINE AGM valve regulated
sealed lead acid batteries are:
• The electrolyte is absorbed in a glass mat (AGM)
separator in the LIFELINE and it is spillable in the flooded or
vented type.
• The cells have pressure relief valves in the LIFELINE
that are designed to keep positive pressure in each cell. The
older vented or flooded type battery cells are open to atmosphere
through the vent cap holes (should the vented battery be tilted or
inverted, the result can be electrolyte (sulfuric acid/water
mixture) spilled all over your equipment, a highly corrosive and
potentially dangerous condition).
• The cell groups in the old vented type batteries are
loosely packed and thus have high plate separation. In contract,
the LIFELINE AGM marine battery has every square inch of positive
and negative plate material tightly packed and compressed with the
AGM and supported by the walls of each cell. With this type of
construction, LIFELINEs offer much lower internal resistance ...
greater starting power (particularly in cold temperature) ... and
a much higher degree of protection against shock and vibration
than the old flooded type. |
