Description
AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) batteries offer improved performance with faster charging, longer life and safer operation. These batteries are constructed with an absorbent glass-mat separator between the negative and positive plates. Special safety valves are fitted to minimise electrolyte dry-out over the life of the battery.
FHT
High Temperature Battery
The FHT AGM VRLA range is designed to operate at higher temperatures. These batteries are made using our superior grid alloy technology which means that the battery can operate for a full 7 years at 35°C. This special high-temperature design means that operators can reduce cooling levels thus saving on expensive air-conditioning energy.
Internally high-quality microporous separators are used to control recombination currents and avoid thermal runaway. The exterior construction used a flame retardant ABS-PC plastic compliant to UL94 V0 (LOI greater than 28%) – this guarantees a high level of safety and superior thermal stability to avoid case bulging.
The FHT range is designed with a front terminal layout for easy set- up and can be installed in standard 19” and 23” cabinets. This design allows easy access during the routine visual inspections.
The range is based on proven VRLA technology and is 99% recyclable at the end of its life. The battery is maintenance-free and requires no routine topping-up of the electrolyte.
The range carries a non-hazardous designation and can be transported by road, rail or air.
The design has been optimized to lower self-discharge during storage.
