Yuasa YBX3027 12V 62Ah 550A SMF Battery

Product Information

The batteries recommended within this Yuasa application list are equal to or above the original equipment specification. Fitting a smaller or less powerful battery will result in a shorter service life and earlier failure. The failure will normally be seen as deep cycling/premature wear and tear.

This Yuasa YBX3027 12v 62Ah SMF Battery features specialist internal components, unique design features and cutting edge technologies to combat the causes of battery failure and deliver reliability, long life and superior performance. We receive data from battery manufacturers and this may be subject to change and / or manufacturing tolerances. If a battery is allowed to stand in a discharged state either on or off a vehicle for a period of time, a chemical reaction takes place which will permanently impair the performance and life of the battery, this process is called “sulphation”.If the alternator regulator is not set properly, or alternator voltage control circuit fails, then the battery can be subjected to an excessive charge. Considerable investment in European manufacturing facilities, the establishment of a European network of 6 wholly owned companies, and the constant search by Yuasa to provide even more reliable power from smaller batteries, has resulted in the company's current position and proud claim to be No.1 in Europe! Yuasa lead-acid batteries are built to the highest standards. They are manufactured, in most cases to correspond with or exceed the vehicle manufacturer’s requirements and specifications. Yuasa are one of the world's largest manufacturers and suppliers of valve regulated lead-acid batteries with global manufacturing plants and an extensive marketing and distribution network throughout the UK and Europe.

It should be noted that a vehicle fitted originally by manufacturer with an AGM battery should be replaced only with an AGM battery. Likewise, a vehicle originally fitted with an EFB battery should only be replaced by and EFB or AGM battery. The condition of battery cables and terminal connections can influence the reading on the hand held tester. Modern cars often require more powerful batteries to power air conditioning stop/start systems sat navs in-car DVD players and phones. The following options are available in the Yuasa range. Due to the high demands of the OEM market and the technical and manufacturing standards of Yuasa batteries, the rate of genuine manufacturing faults is negligible.There are many different types of hand held digital conductance tester on the market. They generally give a good indication
of problems but the following points should always be taken
into account. Undercharging occurs if the battery is not receiving enough charge to return it to a full state of charge, this will slowly cause sulphation. This fault can occur if the car is being used only occasionally for short journeys, or for Start-Stop urban motoring. Undercharging will occur if alternator voltage is low (13.6-13.8volts), the alternator belt is loose or battery cables are worn and causing high resistance – If in doubt seek advice from an auto electrician. Battery Problems Manufacturing Faults Can't find what you're looking for? In most cases we are able to trace your vehicle by accessing an online database. From here we can tell the make, model, engine size and equipment level of your car, mpv, 4x4 or van and match up the correct battery. Yuasa Silver car batteries allow around 50,000 engine starts, compared to around 20,000 on a normal battery.

Typically seen in a battery within 12 months service life. One cell will show a dramatically lower acid specific gravity reading than the others. The problem cell will usually boil visibly under a high discharge, all other remaining cells will show a good specific gravity reading of 1.26 or above. Short Circuit/dead cells seen in later life are usually associated with the recovery of a sulphated/overdischarged battery. It is possible to see variable acid specific gravities between cells if sulphation is the route cause.If the battery is stored, handled or fitted incorrectly, if the connectors leads are hammered onto terminals, leads are not correctly fastened, the battery will have damage to casing and/or terminals. This is not a manufacturing fault.
