Main benefits and specifications
The indicator keeps working: the battery's status indicator is retained, even after the electronics have been repaired or replaced.
Repairability: almost always repairable. KWS Seuren has developed its own circuit boards, which are easy to fit when one of the common faults occurs.
Full compatibility: works with Bafang 43V systems, with UART as well as CAN bus.
Types: suitable for the following types, among others: CBFACCU340CB, CBFACCU340, CBFACCU450CB, CBFACCU450, CBFACCU600, CBFACCU750CB, CBFACCU750, plus the 998403300 / 998403700 / 998403800 series.
What KWS Seuren stands for: recent developments and reliability
KWS Seuren does not stand still. This is what our batteries are built on:
Our own electronics development: as with other brands (Van Raam Cube batteries, for example), KWS Seuren has developed its own circuit boards. Parts that used to count as “beyond repair” can now be made to work again.
Transparent cell replacement process: batteries are opened up completely and tested thoroughly for capacity and safety, as well as charging speed. All the cells are replaced with new ones and the casing is repaired where needed.
Quality assurance: every cell replacement is tested and then given a final check, all to strict standards. Batteries are shipped in line with safety standards (discharged for transport, for example).
Sustainability and circular thinking: before turning to a new battery we look at cell replacement and reuse, and at an upgrade where one is possible. Customers get more for their money and the burden on the environment is lower.
Partnerships and recognition: we work with well-known brands and insurers (ENRA, for example) and have been recognised within the industry for innovation.
Frequently asked questions
KWS Seuren fits the Bafang 43V battery with electronics it developed itself. As a result the battery indicator keeps working, and in most cases the battery can be repaired rather than replaced. That keeps the cost down and the battery in use for longer, which is also the more sustainable option compared with buying a new battery.
Yes. The new electronics are compatible with both Bafang UART and CAN bus systems. Your battery will keep working with your bike without problems, whichever Bafang communication standard it uses.
The updated battery suits many popular bike brands, including Amslod, Brinckers, BSP, Cortina, Dolly, Dutch ID, Gazelle and Victesse. Models such as the Cortina E-Octa, Gazelle PuurNL HFB and Amslod Hamilton MX all work with it.
A re-celled Bafang 43V battery with KWS electronics comes with a 2-year warranty. That gives you two years of cover on a battery that has been tested before it leaves us.
