RUNNING BULL AGM
AGM FOR START/STOP VEHICLES
WITH ENERGY RECUPERATION.
Over 95 per cent of all new vehicles will be fitted with an engine start/stop function, in order to achieve the CO2 limitation targets set by the EU by means of sustained fuel consumptionsavings and emission reductions. In general, two differing starter battery types are employed in these environment-friendly vehicles, consisting of the absorbent glass mat (AGM) and the enhanced flooded battery (EFB) systems. The use of the appropriate technology depends largely on the fuel and CO2 savings that can be attained.
By and large, AGM technology is employed for start/stop systems with maximum energy requirements and braking energy recuperation.
Within this context, in particular the Running Bull AGM constitutes the optimum solution for mid-range to premium and luxury class vehicles.
TECHNICAL DATA AND INFORMATION
- Valve-regulated AGM battery (VRLA)
- Range of 6 types with capacities from 50-105 Ah
- Up to 360,000 engine starts
- Double cycle stability compared to the Energy Bull long-term discharge battery: highest M3 classification pursuant to EN 50342-1
- Three times greater cycle resistance than conventional starter batteries: highest M3 classification pursuant to EN 50342-1
- Leak-proof owing to electrolyte bonding into an absorbent glass mat
- Zero maintenance owing to recombination technology
- Highest V3 vibration resistance pursuant to EN 50342-1
- Maximum starting performance due to very low internal resistance
- Installation in a lateral position possible (max. 90° angle)
- Flexible use as a starter and on-board power supply battery
AGM batteries are very often used in cars with automatic start-stop systems and brake energy recovery (recuperation). Both technologies place the highest demands on starter and on-board batteries, which conventional wet batteries can no longer fulfil. Even luxury cars with a large number of additional electrical consumers benefit from the extremely high cycle stability of AGM batteries. They are also ideal for off-road use thanks to their extremely high resistance to vibration and leakage, the latter of which enables extreme sloping positions in off-road use.
Good to know! More and more electric cars are being fitted with 12V vehicle electrical system batteries with AGM technology, or an upgrade can be made in terms of battery technology.
Banner tip! Not to be forgotten is the use in the hobby and leisure sector/camping caravan: It is best to use a starter and on-board power supply battery such as the Running Bull AGM to start the engine, especially in caravans and motorhomes - not only for winter camping.
