AGM style batteries are standard on many of Presto Lifts standard products*. These state-of-the-art, deep cycle, lead acid batteries provide a number of benefits.
- Sealed, Safe and Maintenance-Free: No need to add electrolyte and will not emit gasses during normal recharging. Even if ruptured there is nothing to spill.
- Low Self Discharge Rate: The battery will remain fully charged for many months before charging is required.
- Deep Discharge Recovery: Advanced design and composition have greatly improved the batteries ability to recover from excessively deep discharge.
- Easy Handling: No special handling precautions. AGM batteries are classified as a non-hazardous commodity.
- High Discharge Rate: Low internal resistance allows discharge currents of up to ten times the rated capacity of the battery.
- Rugged Construction: The high impact resistance battery cases are made either of non-conductive ABS plastic, polypropylene or styrene. All of these case materials impart great resistance to schlock, vibration, chemicals and heat.
- Long Service Life: Under normal operating conditions, four or five years dependable service life can be expected in stand-by applications, or between 200-1000 charge/discharge cycles depending on average depth of discharge.
AGM batteries may be discharged over a temperature range of -40 degrees Fahrenheit to +140 degrees Fahrenheit.
