START&STOP technology was invented to reduce fuel consumption and C02 emissions into the atmosphere, and so protect the environment. The principle is simple: each time you stop, the vehicle's engine switches off automatically. A battery for a START&STOP vehicle must therefore be able to withstand numerous stops, supply the electrical consumers of new-generation vehicles and support rapid recharging. Conventional starter batteries are not suited to meeting these new requirements. TECHNI-POWER EFB batteries are specially designed to meet the requirements of vehicles with simple automatic START&STOP systems, without additional fuel-saving functions. They equip vehicles with entry-level and mid-range equipment without sophisticated accessories.
Anatomy of EFB Technology.
The EFB Battery is an optimised liquid battery. The thick lead grids are isolated from each other by a microporous separator. An active material attached to the lead grids helps to extend the battery's life.
Benefits
Reliable performance. More powerful than equivalent conventional batteries. Withstand a large number of successive starts. Highly resistant to charge/discharge cycles.
