Q 1. What is the Exide EQ1000 designed for?

A. The EQ1000 is designed for marine and leisure applications where a dedicated battery bank powers onboard equipment such as navigation, safety, emergency, and comfort systems. It is built to withstand the partial and deep discharge cycles typical of such use, which would degrade a standard starter battery prematurely.

Q 2. What are the voltage and capacity ratings of the EQ1000?

A. The EQ1000 is rated at 12V with a capacity of 120Ah (C20) and delivers 1,000Wh of usable energy. Its Cold Cranking Amps (CCA, EN standard) rating is 1,225A.

Q 3. What technology does the EQ1000 use, and why does it matter for marine use?

A. The EQ1000 uses Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) technology, in which the electrolyte is immobilised within glass fibre separators. This eliminates acid stratification, improves cycle life, makes the battery fully sealed and maintenance-free, and allows installation in orientations other than strictly upright ? all of which are practical benefits in marine environments subject to vibration and confined battery spaces.

Q 4. What are the physical dimensions and weight of the EQ1000?

A. The EQ1000 measures 286mm (length) ? 269mm (width) ? 230mm (height including terminal) and weighs approximately 40kg. It is housed in a D07 case with B00 hold-down type. Buyers should verify these dimensions against their battery compartment before ordering.

Q 5. What is the terminal configuration and polarity of the EQ1000?

A. The EQ1000 has a standard polarity configuration (polarity code 2), meaning the positive terminal is positioned on the left when the battery label faces the installer. Specific terminal post type details should be confirmed at point of order if precise compatibility is required.

Q 6. Is the EQ1000 compatible with start-stop charging systems?

A. The AGM technology used in the EQ1000 supports start-stop system compatibility in principle. However, Exide advises that suitability for a specific start-stop application should be verified against the product label before installation.

Q 7. Does the EQ1000 have an IP rating or MCA rating?

A. No IP ingress protection rating or Marine Cranking Amps (MCA) figure is published for the EQ1000. The battery is sealed and maintenance-free by virtue of its AGM construction, but it is not rated to a specific IP standard. For MCA requirements, please contact PartsForMachines before ordering.

Q 8. Are there cross-reference numbers for the EQ1000?

A. No manufacturer cross-reference numbers are currently listed for the EQ1000. Customers replacing a battery from another brand should cross-check by voltage (12V), capacity (120Ah), case dimensions (286 × 269 × 230mm), and terminal polarity before purchasing.

Q 9. What variants are available in the Exide Equipment AGM range?

A. Two smaller variants are available: the EQ600 (PID000138010) and the EQ800 (PID000138011). These share the same AGM technology and are suited to applications requiring lower capacity or where physical space is more restricted.

Q 10. How is the EQ1000 delivered and what is the returns policy?

A. The EQ1000 is dispatched on a pallet due to its size and weight of approximately 40kg. Delivery to UK mainland typically takes 3–5 working days. Contact PartsForMachines directly for a delivery quote, including for addresses outside UK mainland. A 30-day returns policy applies; goods must be returned in original, unused condition.
