Product details
When you need a long-lasting and reliable power solution for UPS, fire safety and security alarm systems, emergency lighting, or renewable energy projects, the GBS12/170B.B. battery offers an excellent choice. As part of the Zelus GBS gel battery series, this 12V, 170Ah (based on C100 standard) battery uses advanced gel electrolyte technology, mixing sulfuric acid with silica fume to form a fixed gel-like substance. This design fundamentally avoids the common electrolyte evaporation and spillage issues of traditional flooded batteries, thus eliminating the subsequent corrosion risks and endowing the battery with excellent performance.
This battery demonstrates greater tolerance to extreme temperatures, impacts, and vibrations. The fully filled gel inside not only effectively prevents acid stratification but also enables uniform heat conduction to the shell, ensuring long-lasting performance in high-temperature environments. The valve regulation system is precisely designed, and its accurate opening and closing pressure distribution is crucial for optimizing the battery's cycle life. Thanks to the use of solid lead coating technology and replacing antimony in lead plates with calcium, the battery significantly reduces gas evolution tendency while retaining excellent mechanical properties, achieving maintenance-free operation without the need for water replenishment concerns for users.
In terms of performance, the GBS12/170 battery has a very low monthly self-discharge rate, with capacity loss less than 2%, and can still maintain power after long-term storage. Its design life exceeds twelve years, and the deep cycle design supports up to 2500 discharge cycles, which is classified as a long-life battery according to the Eurobat standard. The battery offers a capacity range from 7 to 225 ampere-hours to meet different needs. Its structure allows flexible installation, and it can operate stably in both horizontal and vertical positions.
The battery is compactly designed, with a length of 522 millimeters, a width of 202 millimeters, a height of 216 millimeters, a total height of approximately 219.5 millimeters, and a weight of 55 kilograms. It provides standard B9 type terminals and optionally I3 type terminals to meet different connection requirements. These features make it an ideal power source for numerous fields such as solar power stations, wind power generation systems, communication equipment, traffic lights, street lighting, medical equipment, golf carts, and floor cleaning equipment, providing uninterrupted power protection for fire safety, emergency lighting, and monitoring systems.
