    We hear it a lot.
  • 00:00:03
    Time is money.
  • 00:00:04
    Let's face it.
  • 00:00:05
    That's because in business, we use time as a measuring stick.
  • 00:00:09
    But, time really rises to the priority list, and we feel like we've been robbed of it.
  • 00:00:13
    A prime example, the panic and frustration when a machine won't start.
  • 00:00:18
    Machines fail to start for a variety of reasons,
  • 00:00:21
    but one of the most common is a dead battery.
  • 00:00:23
    In fact, in a recent study, more than half of the customers
  • 00:00:27
    surveyed reported that battery purchases are a reaction to one that has failed.
  • 00:00:31
    And the decision is made by the location of the nearest store.
  • 00:00:36
    At Caterpillar, we understand you can't waste time.
  • 00:00:39
    That's why our batteries are made to out-test, outperform and outlast the competition.
  • 00:00:44
    That way you can focus on uptime, not downtime.
  • 00:00:48
    Unplanned maintenance costs up to three times more than planned maintenance,
  • 00:00:52
    and that can apply to something as simple as battery replacement as it does to a more complex failure.
  • 00:00:57
    So let's take a closer look at the design and testing that make Cat
  • 00:01:01
    batteries different and how they deliver the proven performance you can count on.
  • 00:01:06
    Cat Heavy Duty or HD batteries are the best-in-class
  • 00:01:10
    batteries that come standard in all new Cat machines and engine gensets.
  • 00:01:15
    The full HD lineup includes wet-maintenance-free and maintenance-free
  • 00:01:18
    accessible flooded lead acid battery options.
  • 00:01:22
    And, the Cat battery line doesn't end there.
  • 00:01:25
    Our General Duty (GD) battery line offers wet maintenance free and low
  • 00:01:30
    maintenance flooded LED acid batteries that deliver Cat quality and durability
  • 00:01:34
    to a wide range of applications and budgets.
  • 00:01:37
    It also includes valve regulated lead acid (VRLA)
  • 00:01:41
    batteries in AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) and GEL designs.
  • 00:01:45
    The Cat General Duty line of batteries covers all of your starting and cycling applications.
  • 00:01:51
    Every Cat HD battery is designed to meet rugged Caterpillar specifications
  • 00:01:56
    that match your machine and the tough applications you work in.
  • 00:02:00
    Here are some of the key features that make Cat HD batteries more than just a machine commodity.
  • 00:02:05
    Vibration is a battery’s number one enemy
  • 00:02:08
    for heavy duty construction and mining applications.
  • 00:02:11
    The casing is the front line of defense against vibration and the elements.
  • 00:02:16
    The protective Cat design delivers longer life.
  • 00:02:19
    Unique molded side panels prevent punctures and ensure structural integrity.
  • 00:02:23
    And, flame arrestor safety vents prevent external sparks from entering the battery to protect against explosions.
  • 00:02:30
    Rugged terminal posts are forged for maximum strength and resistance to corrosion.
  • 00:02:35
    The post provides lower electrical resistance, allowing higher cold
  • 00:02:39
    cranking amps for better starting power - even in harsh environments.
  • 00:02:43
    Positive and negative plates are anchored at both
  • 00:02:46
    the top and bottom for better resistance to vibration.
  • 00:02:50
    This full frame positive and negative grid design, rugged microporous separators
  • 00:02:55
    and an exclusive acid/paste combination work together to deliver
  • 00:02:59
    great starting capability, deep discharge recovery and long life.
  • 00:03:04
    Internal cell connections keep the electrical path short to maximize starting power.
  • 00:03:10
    Cat batteries pass more than 100 rigorous quality
  • 00:03:13
    checks and five durability and performance tests
  • 00:03:16
    that only Caterpillar batteries are required to complete.
  • 00:03:19
    It's a battery you can count on to start - every time.
  • 00:03:23
    Cat batteries are backed by a free replacement warranty
  • 00:03:26
    and are sold and supported by authorized Cat dealers around the world.
  • 00:03:30
    Plus, you can talk to your Cat dealer about the Cat battery recycling program.
  • 00:03:35
    It makes discarding spent lead-acid batteries easy
  • 00:03:38
    so you can reduce waste and support your sustainability goals.
  • 00:03:43
    Don't let a battery get between you and more uptime.
