Yuasa Car battery YBX5027 12V 62Ah 550A (YBX5000 series)

Description

Product information

The Yuasa YBX5027 is a premium starter battery from the YBX5000 Silver High Performance SMF series. With a capacity of 62 Ah and a cold start current of 550 A (EN), it not only offers strong performance, but also specific properties for special installation situations: It combines the low height (175 mm) with pole arrangement 1 (positive terminal left). This battery delivers up to 35% more starting power than standard batteries and is designed for approx. 50,000 starts. Thanks to the sealed double-lid technology, it is 100% maintenance-free.

Highlights at a glance

  • Premium performance: Part of the "Silver" series for increased starting power and service life, ideal for vehicles with many electrical consumers or for use in cold climates.
  • Special configuration: Combines the low LB2 housing (175 mm height) with pole arrangement 1 (positive terminal left), which is essential for certain vehicle models.
  • Performance plus: Offers 550 A cold start current and thus significant reserves compared to standard batteries of this size.
  • SMF technology: The patented, sealed tilt double lid prevents acid leakage (VDA test passed) and reduces water loss by up to 30%.
  • Maintenance-free: Thanks to the sealed construction, no topping up with water is necessary over the service life.
  • User-friendly: Includes carrying handle and "Magic Eye" state of charge indicator for quick diagnosis.

The specialist for special connections

The YBX5027 is the ideal solution for vehicles that mechanically require a low battery (175 mm) but electrically are designed for the positive terminal on the left. This is often the case with certain models from Ford, Opel, Honda or Rover, as well as with imported vehicles that have been converted to DIN batteries but have retained the original cable routing. It is the more powerful upgrade to the standard battery (e.g. YBX3078).

FAQs about the Yuasa YBX5027

What is the difference to the YBX5075?

The YBX5075 and the YBX5027 have the same dimensions and performance values. The crucial difference is the pole arrangement: The YBX5075 has the positive terminal on the right (standard), the YBX5027 has the positive terminal left. A swap is usually not possible as the vehicle cables are too short.

Why is the height of 175 mm important?

Many vehicles (e.g. Ford Focus, Mondeo) have a limited installation height in the battery compartment. A standard battery is 190 mm high and would not fit or would hit the engine bonnet. The YBX5027 is designed to be extra flat at 175 mm.

Is the battery suitable for Start-Stop?

No. The YBX5027 is a conventional lead-acid battery. It must not be used in vehicles with a start-stop system.

How do I recognise the pole arrangement?

Place the battery in front of you so that the connection terminals are on the side facing you. If the red positive terminal is now on the left side, this is pole arrangement 1 (as with the YBX5027).
