S5 A with AGM technology: For cars with start/stop systems and recuperation AGM technology (Absorbent Glass Mat) Special lid design for high operational safety The safety valve and the central degassing make the S5 A absolutely maintenance-free and leak-proof. Terminal-post covers Provide protection against short circuits. AGM acid absorbed by micro-fiberglass mats In AGM technology, special micro-fiberglass mats are installed close to the lead plates and absorb the battery acid completely. High contact pressure minimizes the loss of active material at very low internal resistance. Due to the fast reaction of acid and plate material, higher amounts of energy can be provided. Ergonomic handles For easy transport and installation. Set of plates with particularly robust connection The central arrangement of the connectors between positive and negative plates ensures additional stability. Patented Frame (grid) for optimum current flow and reduced corrosion The flow-optimized grid design of the Frame guarantees consistently high starting power and a long service life. In addition, a special alloy ensures a high corrosion resistance and significantly lower self-discharge.

Terminal-post covers Provide protection against short circuits. Ergonomic handles For easy transport and installation. Ion-permeable pocket separator Prevents contact between positive and negative plate for longer service life and higher starting power. EFB with positive plate coated with polyester scrim In EFB technology, the positive plate is coated with a so-called polyester scrim providing additional retention of the active mate rial on the plate. The S4 E battery therefore features an improved deep-cycle resistance compared to conventional batteries and remains operational even if there are strong vibrations. The Bosch S4 E battery with EFB technology is customized to meet the requirements of cars with start/ stop systems. It ensures safe starting even if the vehicle operates several electrical consumers. Patented Frame (grid) for optimum current flow and reduced corrosion The flow-optimized grid design of the Frame guarantees consistently high starting power and a long service life. In addition, a special alloy ensures a high corrosion resistance and significantly lower self-discharge.
