- Absorptive glass microfibre (AGM) separators for sealed lead acid batteries

BERNARD DUMAS (Creysse - France), leading manufacturer of absorptive glass microfibre separators in Europe, offers a range of AGM SEPARATORS to satisfy the most stringent requirements of VRLA battery manufacturers.

Special high quality glass microfibres are used in the production of B. DUMAS absorptive separators, designed specifically for sealed recombinant batteries, maintenance-free, electric vehicles, automotive starting batteries, motorcycle and for stationary application.


B. DUMAS Recomat® separators have the following characteristics:

  • high chemical purity
  • less than 3% acid weight loss
  • high porosity and excellent electrolyte absorption (900 to 1100%)
  • high dimensional stability providing consistent mechanical properties
  • extremely low ohmic resistance
  • available in thickness from 0,7 to 3,5 mm (at 10 kPa pressure).

Structure of a reference

Each reference expresses the thickness of a determined series under a defined pressure

The most two frequent pressures applied on AGM in the world are:

  • 10 Kpa: we use the roman figure "X" for 10

  • 20 Kpa: we use the roman figure "XX" for 20

Thickness under 10 Kpa pressure



Thickness under 20 Kpa pressure

The first digit refers to the Series of the paper (series 2000, series 6000, s. 7000 … )
The last 3 digits express the thickness of the paper in millimetres
The final letter, "P" stands for pressure in Kpa.
