East Penn Offers Silver Alloy Technology with the Deka "Ultimate™" Battery

September 14, 2001

East Penn Manufacturing Co., Inc., introduces the Deka "Ultimate™" battery. A unique patented silver lead alloy maximizes life expectancy under extreme service conditions and high under-hood temperature environments typical of vehicles today.

Additionally, The Deka "Ultimate™" utilizes ultra-pure electrolyte and an added electrolyte reservoir to retard plate dry-out for longer, maintenance-free life. Special plate paste improves reactivity with the electrolyte to provide more power-per-pound.

The specially designed, reinforced "full-frame grids" prolong battery life with twice the wire diameter of normal grids. Negative envelope separators reduce internal short circuits caused by plate shedding and growth.

The Deka "Ultimate™" is available in six BCI group sizes; 25, 35, 34/78, 58, 65 75 Dual Terminal, and 78, with up to 790 cold cranking amps at 0F.

East Penn is a leading manufacturer of high quality lead-acid batteries for the automotive, telecommunications, marine, commercial, industrial and stationary markets. The company's quality systems for its entire 490+ acre complex have been certified to ISO 9001 standards.
