Specially designed & constructed for the rigours of commercial, agricultural & plant vehicle applications The batteries are among the first in the UK and Ireland to carry EN50342-1/6 European Standard performance markings which were recently introduced. Every battery in the range has undergone extensive performance testing and having passed stringent requirements, has earned a classification number for Water Loss (W1 W5), Charge Retention (C1 C2), Vibration Level (V1-V4), Endurance (E1 E4) or Micro Cycle performance (M1 M3). When fitting the charger to the battery, connect the positive lead to the positive terminal and the negative lead to the negative terminal. YBX7000 EFB are the premium choice for high power demands, end of chassis location and are also suitable for vehicles with Start Stop. Built with EFB technology, they feature an electrolyte mixing device to extend battery life and are ideal for frequent overnight stays where hotel loads are applied. Batteries in the range are sealed maintenance free (SMF) with a sealed lid, have XVR and offer an M1 micro-cycle endurance rating.

C. Only use a boost-charger that limits the charging voltage to a maximum of 14.2 Volts and that has a temperature monitor.There are many types of charger available; their working principles and the procedure for using these is given below. Smart Chargers B. These chargers should be able to charge over discharged (below 11.00V) batteries. Note that some have a special setting for all-calcium batteries. Constant Current Chargers The majority of commercial chargers, particularly home-chargers, are of this type, and allow neither the voltage nor the current to be preset. Use the same procedure as for Constant Potential Chargers in the paragraph above. Boost Chargers D. Charge the battery for the number of hours shown in the table below depending on the open-circuit voltage.

C. Charge the battery at the recommended charge rate. If you cannot set the recommended rate, extend or reduce the charging time on a pro rata basis. For example, if the recommendation is to charge the battery at 4.0A for 6 hours (24Ah = 4.0 x 6), charge the battery for 12 hours if you can only set the charger at 2.0A (24Ah = 2.0 x 12). The YBX3642 has an extra plate in the battery, fitting the lower specification YBX3640 / 640HD (or equivalent part in other brands) on these applications can lead to premature failure or poor performance from the battery. The Yuasa Cargo SHD batteries will cope with the most demanding commercial applications such as vehicles with tail lifts, agricultural vehicles, passenger service vehicles and where vehicles have sleeper cabs fitted with numerous electrical devices.

Commercial Batteries

B. Stop charging when the battery is gassing freely and the battery-voltage shows no increase over a period of at least 2 hours.
