BUFFALO BULL EFB
THE LONG-DISTANCE TRUCK POWER.
The electrical system batteries in the commercial vehicle segment must fulfill a growing number of special requirements:
• The comfort function in long-distance trucks (drivers stay overnight in their trucks and use numerous electrical consumers).
• Extreme vibration resistance in the case of the battery integration at the rear of the truck.
To meet these needs, Banner has launched the new Buffalo Bull EFB onto the market. This is because today’s long-distance trucks are not merely a means of transporting goods from A to B. They are also the truckers’ workplace (keyword office) and frequently their mobile home (keywords kitchen, living and sleeping accommodations) for up to five days a week.
Please take very careful note of these tips during battery exchanges!
Warning! Under no circumstances install a conventional wet battery in a vehicle, which in serial production has been fitted with an EFB battery. Should an exchange be necessary, only use an EFB battery with an identical box and in the same performance class.
Banner tip! A conventional starter battery can be upgraded to a more powerful and cycle-resistant Buffalo Bull EFB. Please contact your Banner customer advisor.
Box B
The Buffalo Bull EFB 690 17 can replace the Buffalo Bull type 680 32/SHD 680 32/SHD PRO 680 08
Box C
The Buffalo Bull EFB 740 17 can replace the Buffalo Bull type 725 11/SHD 725 11/ SHD PRO 725 03
All EFB batteries are available from summer 2018 and therefore it is best to note this on your Banner list for future order dispositions.
EFB = enhanced flooded battery, the cycle-resistant starter battery.

- Offer of three standard battery sizes (boxes A, B and C) with 150 Ah or 240 Ah
- Increased cyclical resistance owing to the active mass recipe and non-woven covers
- Robust design and top vibration resistance due to special set bonding
- Improved mesh corrosion resistance due to the use of the continuous production process
- Calcium technology for minimal water consumption
- Designed for highest energy demand due to increasing comfort functions in long-distance trucks
- Maintenance-free (no topping up with water) under normal operating conditions
- Central degassing with integrated flame arrestor
- Add-ons for heightened product safety: short circuit protection, ESD plugs*
- Dimensions in accordance with EN 50342-4:2009
• ESD = electrostatic discharges are disruptive voltage breakdowns caused by major potential differences. These discharges (sometimes visible due to sparks) cause brief, high electrical current and can lead to the ignition of flammable materials. It is precisely this that the ESD plugs prevent with absolute safety.
