SEALED VRLA BATTERY
CONSTRUCTION
New Generation Battery Technology
VRLA batteries… and what makes them special.
Features
The sealed VRLA battery is the battery for vehicles that
may be stored for long periods (riding mowers, personal
watercraft, or scooters or cycles during the off-season,
for example), or where spills could be a problem
(ATVs or personal watercraft). YUASA’s sealed VRLA
batteries deliver:
●
No topping – Fill it just once, to activate. No need
to check electrolyte level or add water ever again.
●
Reduced self-discharge – Grids manufactured
from a special lead-calcium alloy hold the charge
longer – a real plus with storage or occasional use.
●
Easy, instant activation – The “one-push”
electrolyte container makes filling a snap.
●
Enhanced safety – A safety valve vents gases
produced by overcharging. In case of fire, the flame
arrestor disk minimizes explosion risk.

Yuasa’s innovative sealed VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead
Acid) batteries are a new generation made possible by
advanced gas recombinant technology. These include
the YT and YI series batteries. We refer to them as
“sealed VRLA batteries” here.
Sealed VRLA batteries are easy to activate and maintain.
But, keep these points in mind:
1. There are important differences in activating a
sealed VRLA battery. Be sure to follow the instructions
in this section.
2. While Yuasa sealed VRLA batteries dramatically
reduce the need for maintenance, they do need periodic
charging. It’s important to remember this and to know
how to go about it.
3. When considering upgrading to a sealed VRLA
battery that did not come OE in your vehicle, check
to make sure your charging system has a
regulated output between 14.0 - 14.8v.

Batteries
HEAT SEALED
CASE TO COVER
protects against seepage
and corrosion – bonded
unit gives extra strength.
THRU-PARTITION
CONSTRUCTION
provides shorter current path with less
resistance than “over the partition”
construction – you get more cranking
power when you need it!
SPECIAL
ACTIVE MATERIAL
is compounded to withstand
vibration, prolong battery life
and dependability.
PATENTED
SEALED POST
prevents acid
seepage, reduces
corrosion – extends
battery life.
POLYPROPYLENE
COVER AND CONTAINER
assures reserve electrolyte capacity for
cooler operating temperatures; gives
greater resistance to gas and oil – and
impact in extreme conditions!
SPECIAL SEPARATOR
makes the battery spill-proof.
Valve regulated design eliminates
water loss and the need to refill
with acid.
SAFETY VALVE/
FLAME ARRESTOR
relieves excess pressure.
SPECIAL GRID
DESIGN
withstands severe vibration,
assures maximum conductivity.
