Looking for a reliable, durable, and high-quality battery for your system or application? Then choose PBQ (Professional Battery Quality). The brand focuses on quality and reliability and supplies VRLA and lithium batteries for applications such as UPS systems, telecommunications, measuring devices, alarm systems, and emergency lighting. Customized solutions in various battery chemistries are also available.
PBQ battery types
PBQ batteries are known for their high-quality AGM, Gel, and lithium battery solutions for both standby and cyclic use. They are durable and used in various markets, including the security sector, process industry, and marine applications.
The eight different battery series (including General Purpose, High Rate, Long Life, and Cyclic) each have their own characteristics, such as extended lifespan, high discharge performance, or suitability for extreme environmental conditions. All batteries are manufactured according to strict quality standards in ISO-certified production environments.
Wide range of PBQ batteries
PBQ offers a wide range of batteries for various applications. The batteries can be divided into the following two categories:
1. VRLA batteries
PBQ’s VRLA batteries are valve-regulated lead-acid batteries in which an internal valve regulates pressure. These batteries are maintenance-free, leak-proof, and have a long lifespan. This makes them ideal for standby applications such as emergency power supplies, security systems, and alarm systems.
- AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat)
- GEL (Lified Electrolyte)
- TPPL (Thin Plate Pure Lead)
2. Lithium batteries
PBQ’s lithium batteries are characterized by high energy density, low weight, and fast charging times. These batteries are ideal for cyclic applications such as electric vehicles, medical devices, and solar energy systems.
PBQ supplies lithium batteries in the following chemistries:
- LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate)
- LiMn2O4 (Lithium Manganese Oxide)
- Linim NCO2 (Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide)
The benefits of PBQ batteries
PBQ, part of Intercel, stands for quality and reliability. Choosing a PBQ battery offers the following advantages:
1. High performance
PBQ batteries provide a high energy output, long life and stable operation. They are resistant to extreme temperatures, vibrations and shocks. They have low self-discharge and high charging efficiency.
2. Safety
PBQ batteries are designed with a high level of safety in mind. They are equipped with built-in protection against overcharging, deep discharge, short circuits, and overheating. In addition, they are environmentally friendly and do not contain harmful substances such as lead, cadmium, or mercury.
3. VdS certification
An important part of the General Purpose series is VdS certified. This German certification guarantees high quality and safety, even under demanding conditions. As a result, these batteries are ideal for use in fire protection and security systems.
