Batteries for Automatic Start-Stop Systems
In vehicles equipped with an automatic Start-Stop system , the battery faces increased demands due to several factors. These include the high charge throughput required to support numerous electrical consumers, such as steering wheel heaters, air conditioning systems, and safety features, which must remain operational even when the engine is off at traffic lights. Only EFB (Enhanced Flooded Batteries) and AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) batteries are designed to meet the rigorous challenges of automatic Start-Stop systems. EFB Batteries – for Compact and Mid-Range Cars with Start-Stop EFB batteries are designed to meet the power requirements of: - Vehicles with basic automatic Start-Stop systems. - Cars without Start-Stop systems but with demanding driving conditions (e.g., urban traffic). - Vehicles with extensive equipment but no Start-Stop functionality. EFB batteries represent an advancement over traditional lead-acid batteries. They feature a Polyv...
