Banner ÖQS accreditation
At the beginning of May 2003, our organisationreceived accreditation according to ISOTS16949:1999 and ISO 9001:2000 from ÖQSZertzifizierungs- und Begutachtungs GmbH.Following a six-day audit, we were presentedwith the appropriate certificate for our qualityassurance system, which has beenintroduced and verified in line with EN ISO9001:2000 and ISOTS 16949:1999. This meansthat Banner fulfils the stringent directives ofthe automotive industry.
Banner – a story of success
In 1937, Artur Bawart founded a company in Rankweil/Vorarlberg, Austria. At thattime, no one could have imagined that this enterprise would develop into one ofthe most successful in its field. Now, more than 66 years later, Banner can lookback on a history of achievement, which is by no means at an end.
Innovation
Banner was and is a trendsetter. For example, in the starter battery area with theUni Bull, the battery with patented ACCUSAFE leakage protection, which fits morethan 900 car models. In addition, the company sets new benchmarks in the batterymanagement sector with its new calcium/calcium technology. Last, but by nomeans least, Banner has attracted great attention with a steady flow of newdevelopments in the AGS (industrial and traction batteries) field with traction andstand-by batteries.
Employees
The high qualifications and motivation of the Banner work force are a guaranteefor top know-how and outstanding customer advantages. An extensive range oftraining and the willingness of the company personnel to undertake lifelong learningensure that this knowledge is constantly expanded and maintained at the verylatest level.
Safety
Even the most ingenious innovation is impractical if personal and environmentalsafety is neglected. Accordingly, for Banner, safety is the most important prerequisitefor the development of new products.
Service and maintenance
Service and maintenance is an interface to the customer and in many cases, thefactor that decides product success or failure. As in many other areas, Bannerhas adopted fresh approaches in this field (rental system, service packages),which lead directly to the clientele.
Bannner AGS – the driving force

The Trac Bull Nass is a lead-acid battery containing liquid electrolyte.It is employed wherever long life cycle, great reliability, highperformance and cycle resistance are required.
The Trac Bull Nass is powerful, economic and environment-friendlyand is suitable for an extensive range of applications.
Option: filling system
In order to automatically refill the water consumed in the electrolysisprocess, Banner Trac Bull batteries can be fitted with a filling systemthat guarantees fast, safe and clean topping up. This filling systemreduces the servicing requirement and prolongs battery life.
Option: electrolyte circulation
In the case of extreme loads, a pump module ensures homogenousmixing during charging, which prevents electrolyte and temperaturestacking. In practical terms, this means up to 20% less energydemand, charging times that are up to 30% shorter and cuts in waterconsumption of up to 80%.
Applications
Electric vehicles and all types ofmotors
- Forklifts- Sweeping machines- Lifting platforms- Special applications, e.g. AGVs- automated guided vehicle
systems, skids
Traction batteries – Trac Bull NassTraction batteries – Trac Bull Nass
An ingenious technical idea opens up a wide range of applications for Banner traction batteries.This involves the binding of the electrolyte in a gel. As a result, the battery is absolutely maintenance-free and leak-proof, while gasification during running is extremely low. It is these characteristicsthat make the Trac Bull Gel suitable for special tasks.
These include areas of utilisation demanding cleanliness and hygiene in combination with zeromaintenance. It is under such conditions that gel batteries offer optimum performance and safety.
Applications
Similar to the Trac Bull Nass,but especially in the hygieneand foods sectors:
- Automated guided vehicle systems, skids- Hand elevating trucks- Sweeping machines- Stationary power supply in
closed rooms, e.g. in thepharmaceutical industry or incold stores

The Trac Bull Bloc GiS with liquid electrolyte is a powerful, reasonably priced alternative toconventional drive batteries. What the Trac Bull Nass is on a large scale, is the Trac BullBloc GiS in miniature. Consequently, it is mainly found in the small traction area.
The Trac Bull Bloc GiS employs grid plate technology, extremely strong positive and negativeplates in a special alloy being wrapped in a double layer of glass wool. The result is a cycle-resistant, maintenance-free and durable block battery with high performance for a wealthof uses in the small traction field.
Applications
- Small stackers- Lifting platforms- Electric vehicles- Cleaning machines- Golf carts- Solar power systems

The Trac Bull Bloc DB employs gel technology and isespecially suitable for tricky tasks in the small tractionsector. The bedding of the electrolyte in gel preventselectrolyte escapes and prevents the problem of acidstacking.The use of recombination technology (the decompo-sition of water is almost entirely compensated for bythe recombination of water on the positive plate) meansthat the service life of the battery is not affected bywater losses.The closed battery system prevents electrolyte leakage,while minimum self-discharge ensures that themaintenance-free Trac Bull Gel can be stored for longerthan conventional lead-acid batteries.

Applications
- Golf caddies- Lifting platforms- Cleaning machines- Automated guided vehicle
systems- Camping/caravans- Wheelchairs- Marine- Safety lighting- Solar power systems

Stand-by batteries from Banner are a reliable energy source and fulfiltwo basic functions, providing power when:- The primary electricity supply fails- Voltage fluctuations or peaks occurr
These batteries are characterised by safety derived from high-qualitymaterials, the latest technology and state-of-the-art production methods.Banner offers stand-by types in block or individual cell versions.
GiV bloc
The GiV bloc employs AGM technology, using special, thin, fibreglassweb separators, soaked in electrolyte. As a result of the combinationof liquid electrolyte and the lasting insulation of the electrodes from oneanother, the battery can be operated in any position without loss ofcapacity.GiV bloc batteries are used in both large systems, where power lossesare unacceptable, as well as in communications technology for centraland decentralised units.
GiVC bloc
GiVC bloc batteries utilise gel technology and hence bound-in electrolyte.They are employed in the leisure and rehabilitation areas, and as opposedto the GiV bloc, are also used as a power source in the small tractionsector.
Applications
- UPS units- Fire alarm systems- Medical systems- Model construction- Measurement and
instrumentation technology- Safety lighting
Applications
- Golf caddies- Motor caravans- E-scooters- Rehabilitation technology
