Vehicles that operate to the maximum, like the large-scale haul trucks that populate mine sites around Australia, need batteries that can rise to the occasion and keep pace with the extreme performance levels required.
Not all vehicles are made the same, so why would they use the same batteries? When it comes to powering vehicles in the mining industry, OPTIMA batteries step up to the plate with its range featuring a series of colour- coded, high-performance AGM batteries known as REDTOP®, YELLOWTOP® and BLUETOP®. The RED, YELLOW and BLUE top batteries cater for Automotive, Deep cycle and Marine applications respectively.
Each colour in OPTIMA’s range is designed to provide the application with the most power for the longest period of time,and the unique casing design of each specific battery enhances the advanced Spiralcell Technology®.
State-of-the-art technology
The unique Spiralcell Technology in OPTIMA’s range permits more tightly compressed cells within the battery, which extends the battery’s life and gives it superior vibration resistance. As well as this, each model is 99.99 per cent pure lead and features solid cast inter-cell connections for increased durability and maximum plate height.
These features allow the battery to live up to twice as long as traditional batteries.The extreme applications and unique demands of mine site trucks require more from a battery and with both deep-cycle and starting capabilities with patented Spiralcell Technology, OPTIMA YELLOWTOP batteries can fulfil those needs.
Powering extreme applications
The combination of premium starting power and impressive cycling capabilities makes the heavy-duty OPTIMA YELLOWTOP perfect for today’s accessory-packed vehicles, with its low internal resistance providing more consistent power output and faster recharge times.
The deep cycle characteristics of the battery, coupled with its extreme resistance to vibration, provides performance vehicles with the repetitive power they require, housed in a convenient spill-proof package.
Other key characteristics include being leak proof, mountable in almost any position, maintenance-free, having more than 300 discharge/recharge cycles, a three-times longer service life and 15-times more resistance to vibration.
YELLOWTOP batteries feature thicker, spiral-wound high- density plates for durable, sustained power delivery that can last hundreds of cycles without losing capacity.
Manufactured by Clarios – a world leader in advanced energy storage solutions – OPTIMA YELLOWTOP batteries meet the ever-increasing demand for smarter applications.
All the batteries in the OPTIMA range are manufactured with sustainability, safety, and reliability in mind. Clarios’s supply chain management aims to contribute to the ongoing progress of the community and the planet by adding value every step of the way.
