There are many reasons why batteries inflate, but one of the most frequent is a strong overload that generates heating of the grids. When these are heated, the entire set of plates bends and deforms, which, in turn, causes a deformation of the box. Also, a lot of gasification is generated that cannot be released by the plugs.

Temperature can affect the performance of a battery due to the following causes: Extreme temperatures accelerate the corrosion of the gratings and the degradation of the active materials. At low temperatures, the ability to deliver large starting currents decreases and this is evidenced by the fact that the motor has a harder time starting. When a battery is already over the end of its useful life, failure will become evident when temperatures are low (below 5-10ºC). Temperature-and-operation A battery cycle is called the succession of a discharge followed by subsequent recharging until the extracted energy is fully recovered. The IEEE, DIN, BS, JIS, IEC standards also define the lead-acid battery cycle time. For example, in the IEC 60896 standard, the discharge period is 3 hours, while the charge period lasts 21 hours. That is, the norm allows one complete cycle per day. standardized to test a The depth of a discharge is the ratio of the discharged capacity to the nominal capacity of the battery. The greater the depth of discharge, the fewer the number of cycles that the battery can deliver. For example, if a monoblock battery for stationary applications delivers 180 cycles with a depth of discharge of 80%, reducing discharges to 30%, the same battery will deliver more than 1000 cycles.

The Start / Stop system was developed to put an end to all those situations in which you remain stopped with the engine running, that is, to go through cities where there is a lot of traffic congestion, thought about fuel efficiency and also reducing emissions of CO2, helping to avoid environmental damage.

EFB batteries have been introduced as a lower level option to AGM batteries in terms of performance and durability. EFB technology is based on improvements to existing liquid electrolyte technology, through the introduction of carbon additives in the plate manufacturing process. AGM batteries benefit from certain unique design features not found in liquid electrolyte batteries, such as: fiberglass separators, recombinant cap technology, and higher pack pressures that facilitate improved life cycle . AGM batteries are best suited to meet the demands of high-spec vehicles that feature one or more of the following technologies: start-stop, regenerative braking (hybrid systems), and passive propulsion.
