VRLA Batteries
Overview of AGM and GEL Technology
VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) batteries are designed with AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) and GEL technologies, each offering unique benefits suited to different applications. These batteries feature gas recombination, where the oxygen produced by the positive plate recombines with hydrogen from the negative plate to form water, minimizing water loss and maintenance needs. Choosing the appropriate technology—AGM or GEL—is crucial for ensuring optimal battery performance in specific use cases.
AGM Technology
AGM batteries use compressed glass fiber separators to hold the electrolyte, which allows for high power output, minimal maintenance, and resilience in demanding applications.
  • Key Characteristics
    Lower initial cost, ideal for high-rate discharge, compact size.
  • Advantages of AGM Batteries
    • Cost Efficiency
      Lower initial cost than GEL cells.
    • Ideal Applications
      Suitable for starting and stationary applications.
    • Performance
      Superior for short-duration, high-current discharges.
    • Compact Size
      Smaller batteries can handle higher discharge rates.
GEL Technology
GEL batteries utilize a gelled electrolyte with separators in microporous plastic, providing high durability and resistance to deep discharges, ideal for cyclic applications and challenging environments.
  • Key Characteristics
    Excellent deep discharge recovery, low self-discharge, high tolerance to temperature variations.
  • Advantages of GEL Batteries
    • Deep Discharge Recovery
      Full recovery from deep discharges, even without immediate recharge.
    • Cyclic Durability
      Excellent for daily cycling and long-duration discharges.
    • Temperature Tolerance
      Performs well in high-temperature environments.
    • Unstable Power Environments
      Suitable for areas with fluctuating power sources.
    • Electrolyte Stability
      Zero stratification, reduced self-discharge, and no need for equalization charges.
    • Enhanced Durability
      Thicker plates and polymer separators increase lifespan and prevent corrosion.
    • Improved Charge Acceptance
      Low internal resistance enhances charge acceptance.
    • Safety Features
      High resistance to shorting and loss of water with the proper charging setup.
