At FQS Battery, we are proud to receive feedback from those who trust our batteries. And we are even more pleased when our friends and distributors send us photos or share their satisfaction with the performance of our batteries in harvesters and tractors.
We know that work in the field never lets up and that agricultural machinery must always be ready to start. At FQS Battery, we are part of that mechanism that, once in motion, cannot stop.
If you need to choose the ideal battery for your machinery, here are some key points to keep in mind.
Starting batteries for agricultural machinery, such as harvesters, tractors, and seeders, have special features to withstand harsher conditions than conventional vehicles. Some of their characteristics are:
1 – Greater resistance to impacts and vibrations
Agricultural machinery operates on uneven terrain, which generates strong vibrations. The batteries are designed with reinforced plates and a durable casing to prevent internal damage.
2 – Starting capability in extreme conditions
These batteries need high starting power (CCA) because harvester engines are often large and difficult to start, especially in winter.
3 – Greater storage capacity and deep-discharge cycles
In addition to starting the engine, they must power electrical systems such as lights, GPS, sensors, and climate control. Some are designed to withstand deep discharges without being damaged.
4 – Protection against dust and moisture
When operating in the field, batteries must withstand environments with dirt, mud, and moisture without failing prematurely.
5 – Long service life and low maintenance
Many are maintenance-free, with AGM or lead-calcium technology, reducing the need to top up with water and minimizing the risk of sulfation.
6 – Compatibility with demanding electrical systems
Some modern harvesters include advanced electronic systems that require a stable, consistent power supply.
CONCLUSION
In short, batteries for agricultural machinery are more robust, more powerful, and designed to last in conditions that a car battery would not withstand.
