Maintenance-free motor battery

What is a maintenance-free AGM motorcycle battery?

Maintenance-free motorcycle batteries. AGM batteries require some positive pressure to function properly and are therefore closed. A self-closing safety valve opens when the pressure increases due to overloading (0.18 bar) and closes as soon as equilibrium is restored (<0.15 bar). The gas that is then released will mainly consist of oxygen, but will also contain some hydrogen. Due to the construction of the motorcycle battery, this loss can no longer be replenished and therefore means a shortened service life. It is therefore important not to overcharge AGM motorcycle batteries!

The main advantages of an AGM motorcycle battery are:

• Minimal gas formation that remains below the concentration during normal use, which makes the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen (oxyhydrogen) explosive (4%).
• Protection of the battery plates against vibration and shock.
• No battery acid is released if damaged or falls over.
• Can be installed in a tilted position up to 45 degrees.
