Elecsol AGM Battery Range

Introducing the NEW Elecsol AGM Battery Range.
These new AGM batteries have been designed for applications from marine and solar to such diverse areas as floor scrubbing machines, portable traffic lights, coach builders and emergency service vehicles.
Elecsol have worked tirelessly to create the ultimate in deep cycle battery technology that is currently available. Offering an incredible unlimited 7 year warranty and the Elecsol carbon fibre AGM deep cycle battery having a 15 year floating design life.

The Carbon Fibre Battery technology employed in this new range of advanced batteries significantly increases the cycle life compared to conventional AGM / Gel designs. This is achieved by the provision of reinforced carbon fibre matrix within the oxide paste eliminating completely oxide shredding whilst inhibiting sulphating of the plates.

Carbon Fibre is not only a strong material but also an excellent electrical conductor. When used in the manufacturing process it reinforces the lead plates. Millions of strands of carbon fibre build up the conductive network within the grid. This gives a greater plate surface area able to absorb the charging current faster and more efficiently

Elecsol Range of AGM batteries discharge by only 0.5%- 0.7% per month; this means that they can be stored for longer without the need for recharging.

All of the electrostatic acid is contained in the glass mats, the battery cannot spill even when broken making this AGM battery non hazardous and suitable for transportation in aircraft.

The charging voltage of the Elecsol AGM battery is the same as any standard battery.

There is no need for special adjustments or problems with incompatible chargers or charge controllers, sine the internal resistance is extremely low so there is no heating of the battery even under heavy charge or discharge, these AGM batteries have no charge or discharge current restriction.

Elecsol batteries complement the use of solar panels; they are capable of accepting even the smallest amount of charging current.

CTEK Battery Chargers

CTek Intelligent Battery Charging Range

CTEK’s Range of intelligent award winning chargers, including the newly launched Multi XS 4003, have emphasis placed on their design, innovation and unique multi step charging process.

CTEK’s Multi XS range of smart charger optimises the performance of lead-acid batteries by determining accurate readings of a battery’s charge and ensuring the appropriate action is taken to optimise the battery for use, thereby prolonging a battery’s life to the benefit of both the owner and the environment.
These chargers work automatically to preserve the battery charge and activate when the voltage drops slightly guaranteeing the battery is kept fully charged and always ready for use.
CTEK chargers are designed for safety in ALL aspects – the battery, the vehicle electronic system and for the user - spark proof, reverse polarity protected and short circuit proof, CTEK chargers are the only available charger to offer float AND pulse maintenance and hold WORLDWIDE patent for this technology.
Ctek Chargers carry out the following 4 main functions
Desulphation repeatedly runs a complete charge cycle in milliseconds
Bulk charge recovery - 80% of battery capacity is recovered
Absorption completes charging to 100% in controlled conditions
Pulse maintenance charges when needed to maximise battery life
All CTEK units are compact, robust, stylish, accessible storage.
All CTEK chargers are easy to use, fully automatic and require no specialist knowledge. Detailed instructions are included with the CTEK charger and as Smart Chargers determine an accurate reading of the level of charge within the battery, constant control is maintained over charge levels protecting both the battery and sensitive electrical equipment. To determine the correct charger for the size of battery (and sometimes the type) you want to charge, visit www.lake-batteries.co.uk for information on the entire range of Smart Chargers or contact us on 0800 335 7338
