Today, the most demanding SLI applications have upgraded to Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) batteries. Picking the right AGM separator is crucial for cycle life and performance in demanding conditions.
Our separators include the following features:
- High-rate discharge performance
- Cycling optimization
- High-vibration resistance
- High-porosity for maximum electrolyte volume
- Electrolyte stratification resistance
- Compression maintenance (recovery)
- Chemical purity and consistency
- Thickness and basis-weight control
- Electrolyte–filling efficiency
- Wrapping/stacking efficiency
- Assembly defect reduction (rips, splits, tears, and punctures)
- Paste imperfection protection (paste lumps, spurs, etc.)
H&V’s EnergyGuard® HB is a high-strength separator, robust against vibration and assembly defects caused by pasting lumps. Our BG CB all-glass product line is the most widely used separator in SLI. It’s optimized for acid filling, plate-wrapping, stacking, cell compression, high-rate discharge, and reserve capacity. H&V manufactures our separators at regional mills around the world for fast delivery and local application support.
