AGM Seperator

Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) batteries are Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries that use aspecial separator made of glass fiber.

Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) Separator

The primary function of a separator is to maintain a safe distance between the negative and positive electrodes,preventing short circuits while allowing the transfer of ionic charge carriers. Separators affect various battery performance factors, including energy, cycle life, safety, and power density. Your experience with AGM separators depends on the quality of both the product and the provider you select. Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) batteries are Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries that use a special separator made of glass fiber. Compared to flooded lead batteries, AGM batteries offer enhanced benefits, particularly due to differences in design and construction, making them better suited for demanding applications and processes.Parsis’s AGM separators provide industry-leading pressure retention and extended battery life. The fiberglass sheets serve as a barrier in between plates absorbing and immobilizing the acid in the AGM batteries, eliminating the need for maintenance or electrolyte watering, and serving as protection against dendrites, reducing shorts. Our vertically integrated manufacturing capabilities and AGM battery recyclability allow for a reduced carbon impact/footprint. We offer two unique separator product lines:

ParsisGlass™

Type 1

The all-glass AGM from Parsis Commerce is the global standard for the automobile passenger vehicle market.
It provides superior performance benefits such as capacity, cranking, and charge acceptance and has the highest acid capacity of our offerings due to its pure glass design.

Type 2

Parsisglass® is an excellent choice for advanced manufacturing batteries, motorbikes, and other high-demand applications and processes. The reinforced design of Parsisglass makes it an ideal choice for industrial battery processing and battery assembly. Its robust design enhances processing properties and has been proven to reduce waste.

AGM Battery Applications:

Start-Stop Vehicles, Large Audio Systems, Heated Seats and Other Electronic Accessories. If you’re looking to power a vehicle with numerous electronic features or plug-in accessories, you should consider a deep-cycle battery, or a battery made with advanced technology like AGM. AGM batteries are a great premium choice for high-end and advanced fuel-efficient vehicles with large power demands, and for people who seek greater reliability and longer life in auto batteries. Electronic features such as DVD players, GPS, heated seats, and audio systems all add to the demands on a battery.

Start-Stop Vehicles:

AGM batteries are also the preferred solution for start-stop vehicle technology, which rapidly gained popularity in Europe and entered the U.S. market in model-year 2013 vehicles. Start-stop vehicle technology automatically shuts off the engine when your vehicle stops, such as at a traffic light or in stop-and-go traffic and restarts it quickly and quietly when the clutch is engaged, or the brake pedal is released. When the engine is off, the battery is the sole source of power to all the car’s electrical devices, such as air conditioning, the radio, and the navigation system. And, in advanced start-stop systems with features like regenerative braking or passive boost, the battery is stressed even more. To power electrical loads during engine-off periods and to support a high number of starts per trip, these vehicles need a battery that is more robust than the typical lead-acid battery. With superior cycling capability, charge acceptance and the ability to operate at a low state of charge, AGM is the technology of choice.

AGM Battery Construction:

In AGM batteries, the positive and negative plates are separated by an absorbent glass mat that absorbs and holds the battery’s acid and prevents it from flowing freely inside the battery. The plates are tightly compressed into each cell and held under pressure in the plastic case. The internal compression limits the shedding of plate material caused by cycling and allows for significantly longer life. The element compression also lowers internal resistance and maximizes pulse power output. A rigid container maintains the necessary compression throughout the battery’s life. The basic design also includes relief venting to release pressure from minor gassing that occurs during charging. The valves open at low pressure and close automatically to prevent air from leaking into the battery.

Tomorrow’s battery, available today.

AGM batteries offer superior performance, with a glass mat separator that delivers up to twice the life of standard flooded batteries and unprecedented energy output even in the most demanding conditions.
