Charging method
EXTERNAL CHARGING OF EXIDE GEL-BATTERIES:
• I phase with current intensities of between 10 und 30 A/100 Ah. (recommendation
1/10 of the battery capacity, e.g. 10 A for 100 Ah)
• U phase or U1 phase (main charging phase) with constant voltage between 14. 1
and 14.4 V
• U2 phase (float charge) with constant voltage of 13.8 V.
• Charging times phase IU or IU1 at least 12 hrs, change to U2 phase after 12-16 hrs

EXIDE GEL
Sealed technology with recombination
Maintenance-free, sealed battery system
In an attempt to make the highly successful, fully
perfected dryfit gel technology from Sonnenschein
available to the automotive industry too, EXIDE
has utilised its group synergies. The result is the
new EXIDE GEL, a battery that combines the
strengths of both dryfit battery types, the dryfit
sportline and dryfit start, to produce optimum
standards of quality. The EXIDE GEL offers reliable
coldcranking and maximum power supply with
superior cycling performance in sophisticated
applications.
With only 13 types, the EXIDE GEL allows an
enormous variety of applications, giving specialist
retailers just what they needed to round off their
range.

The recombination principle
In the EXIDE GEL sealed battery system, the gases produced during charging
are recombined back into water within the cells. This means that exceptionally
clean and safe handling is guaranteed, because neither gases nor acid
vapours are able to escape outside.
The EXIDE GEL is therefore completely maintenance-free.
More useable capacity
Unlike the conventional
batterie, the EXIDE GEL
allows a 100% discharge.

THE FIRST NAME IN BATTERIES
ns: The EXIDE GEL
The EXIDE GEL is designed for maximum energy
power supply requirements. With its reliable
continuous current output, it guarantees the function
of all the vehicle’s electrical consumers. It provides
an ideal buffer for cases where there is uneven
charge and discharge, such as solar applications.
Its uncompromising fulfilment of professional requirements means that the EXIDE GEL is ideally suited
to use in leisure and sports vehicles too.
Thanks to its significantly longer service life, as
compared with traditional starter batteries, the
EXIDE GEL is a good bet financially too.
Robust construction
When used in off-road vehicles, construction machinery
or boats, the battery must be able to function perfectly
at extreme angles and withstand severe vibrations. Its
robust construction coupled with the specific advantages
of gel technology means that the EXIDE GEL is characterised
by its high vibration resistance.
Uses/application
• No need to top up water, no maintenance costs
• More utilized capacity
• Safe application in closed compartments (acc. to VDE 510...)
ver the entire service life
80°
• Reliable starting
• Suitable for vehicles left out of use for prolonged periods, seasonal use
• Long service life with frequent charge and discharge
• No spillage in case of broken container
• Operation in extreme positions
• Deep discharged batteries can be recharged within 4 weeks
• Solar applications
• Building site and off-road vehicles
