CV product guide
This brochure seeks to explain important developments in the European battery market. How the Platinum range has been improved and developed, to deal with such changes and new opportunities.
WHY PLATINUM?
This Platinum commercial vehicle product guide has been developed to provide a clear overview of how the HGV, Truck, Passenger Service Vehicles, Agricultural, Construction, Heavy Plant Equipment
and Specialist Utility sectors have very different performance demands from a battery. This in turn is shaping the future developments in battery design and technology.
This product guide then moves on to explain how the Platinum Xtreme ranges are best suited to the different operating conditions and battery performance requirements for each sector.

Platinum Xtreme Plus Sealed
The Platinum Xtreme Plus Sealed range is an extension of the Xtreme Plus range. Designed to exceed O.E specification, this fully sealed battery is the perfect solution for vehicles that demand premium power, performance, reliability & added safety.
The range is designed and manufactured to deal with increased demands from both vibration (rough terrain) and added electrical loads (‘in cab’ electrical equipment).
With V3 vibration resistance as standard, the range is suited to the most demanding applications and the most arduous of conditions. The range is perfectly suited for use on heavy plant machinery (Cranes, Loaders, Bulldozers and Excavators), working with rough terrain and high impact activity over prolonged periods of time.
The Xtreme Plus sealed range is designed to cope with high cyclic drain from ‘in cab electrical equipment’ (TVs, Navigational systems & Toilet pumps), making it perfectly suited to long haul vehicles such as HGVs and Passenger Service Vehicles (PSVs). This technology is migrating to certain sectors within the commercial vehicle division. For example new buses, which operate with a ‘tilt’ function, utilise this range’s technology as safety requirements demand that the battery is fully sealed.
Ideal for the most arduous applications the Xtreme Plus Sealed is the logical choice for professionals within the CV sector, especially where measured Safety, Vibration Resistance and continual battery cycling are required.

Platinum Xtreme
Platinum Batteries are the UK’s No1 Selling battery brand. Widely known as ‘The Consumers Choice’. The entire range meets the specification originally fitted by the vehicle manufacturer. The Platinum Xtreme range offers premium power and performance for a wide range of commercial vehicle applications. Whether it is a heavy goods vehicle, truck, agricultural equipment or even construction vehicles.
Platinum Xtreme offers reliability across all applications. The Platinum Xtreme range is engineered with high cyclic capability and vibration resistance (V2) in accordance to EN50342-1 as standard. Consequently this provides a reliable power source and long life no matter what the application.
The Platinum Xtreme range are flooded lead acid Batteries and cover 95% of the Commercial Vehicle parc. The Xtreme range will continue to service the majority of the market for some time, despite the introduction of new technologies such as Lithium-ion.
Working with strategic manufacturing partners, the Platinum Xtreme range is designed to minimise fleet downtime and increase commercial productivity. The Platinum range also has clear visibility on the introduction and development of new technologies, therefore you can be sure that we are providing the perfect portable power source for your needs
Platinum Xtreme Plus
The Platinum Xtreme Plus range is designed to exceed O.E specification and offers superior performance with +30% Extra Power, increased service life and V2+ (vibration resistance).
The Platinum Xtreme Plus range services 85% of the European Commercial Vehicle Parc and is designed to cope with increased demands from both vibration and electrical loads from ‘in cab’ equipment. It utilises labyrinth lid technology, which increases service.
The thick grid plate construction in the Xtreme Plus also provides superior reserve capacity which leads to improved cycling capability compared to the Platinum Xtreme range.
These features make the Xtreme Plus the logical choice for professionals within the sector, as they are a reliable power source and provide optimum power as well as increased performance.
Reduced fleet downtime, with increased productivity is the true benefit delivered by the Xtreme Plus range. The features highlight how this is made possible.
