TTC ENHANCE POPULAR YUASA BATTERY RANGE

Report this content

TTC has recently extended the competitively priced Yuasa battery range to ensure maximum availability.

TTC have also replenished stock to ensure they have high stock levels to cater for demands in the winter months. Cold weather accelerates the demise of a tired battery as the electro-chemical reaction slows and performance is reduced as the temperature plummets.

The Yuasa Cargo battery range is designed to handle the ever-increasing power demands of modern commercial vehicles and equipped with the reliability to deal with all situations and environments.

Key product benefits include; improved starting power, heavy-duty construction for extreme environments and special alloy composition. Today’s commercial batteries require greater power and cycling ability to cope with the increased amounts of electrical equipment used in these vehicles.

The CV market is flooded with low cost batteries based on automotive level technology, which offers good initial starting performance, but does not offer sufficient design durability to maintain adequate battery life for CV applications.

All Cargo batteries conform to the relevant section of EN50342: 2006 for maintenance free characteristics (LWL – low water loss). This means that when used in approved vehicle applications that operate in normal conditions, it is not necessary to add water to the battery. Cargo batteries are maintenance-possible not impossible ie the batteries are designed to be topped up if water loss has occurred.

Yuasa have used a careful balance between lower density, thinner plates for starting performance and thicker plates for cyclic durability. The Yuasa technical team, taking into account extensive commercial vehicle fleet trials and Yuasa’s global market experience, has developed this optimum design.

Tony Sackett, Managing Director at TTC commented:  added: “TTC strives to offer the whole package in terms of a leading brand, stocks from our warehouse in Crewe, excellent customer service and an outstanding delivery service topped with competitive prices.”

Yuasa Editor’s notes:

  • Yuasa batteries comply to EN (European Standard EN50342, 1 2006)
  • The quality of the battery is therefore assured and meets the specification shown in the catalogue and on the type labels of the batteries
  •  In addition to the acclaimed range of Cargo batteries, Yuasa have developed a Super Heavy Duty range (SHD). Two batteries in this range deserve special mention, the 623 SHD and the 625 SHD. These batteries where designed around the problems associated with the PSV markets, Inner city busses have a limited amount of recharge capacity, due, in the main to low driving speeds, thus starving the battery of charge and effectively causing end of life damage, typically around one year.
  • The Yuasa 632 SHD has doubled the life expectancy by 100%.
  • The thin plate/ higher plate surface area technology allows for faster charging from limited supply and avoids bottom plate stratification and sulphating, the main cause of end of life damage.
  • The 625SHD is designed wherever a high parasitic load is present, typically in the coach market where a number of auxiliaries drain power beyond the capacity of the alternator. Again life expectancy increase is 100% in these types of fitments.
