Product details
GBS12/225B.B. in the Zelus GBS series is a valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery with gel electrolyte. By mixing sulfuric acid with silica ash, the electrolyte is fixed into a gel state. This design almost eliminates the common problems of electrolyte evaporation, overflow, and the resulting corrosion issues in traditional flooded batteries. Meanwhile, the gel technology endows the battery with excellent performance, enabling it to have stronger resistance to extreme temperatures, impacts, and vibrations, and effectively prevent acid stratification.Its valve-controlled regulation system can safely discharge internal gas. Structurally, calcium is used to replace antimony in the lead plates, significantly reducing the gas evolution tendency while maintaining mechanical strength.
This battery is provided in a 12V configuration with a nominal capacity of 225 Ah. Its design balances flexibility and reliability, allowing installation in both horizontal and vertical positions, greatly facilitating equipment integration in various spatial layouts. Under normal operating conditions, the expected float charge service life of GBS series batteries is as long as 12 years, and it can provide up to 2500 cycle life in deep cycle applications, meeting Eurobat's definition of long-life batteries.The fully filled gel electrolyte inside the battery helps conduct heat evenly to the outer shell, ensuring long-lasting performance in high-temperature environments. Additionally, its maintenance-free feature eliminates the need for users to add water, and the self-discharge rate is extremely low, with less than 2% capacity loss per month. The specially designed valve ensures precise opening and closing pressure distribution, which is crucial for optimizing the battery cycle life.
The technical parameters of the GBS12/225B.B. battery are clear: voltage is 12V, nominal capacity at 107-hour rate is 225Ah, and weight is approximately 67.5 kg. In terms of dimensions, the length, width, and total height are 522 mm, 240 mm, and 219.5 mm respectively, with a standard B9 terminal design.These characteristics make it an ideal choice for various application scenarios with extremely high requirements for power supply reliability.
This battery is well-suited as a backup power source for uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, fire and safety alarm systems, emergency lighting, and monitoring systems. In telecommunication facilities, key medical equipment, street lighting, and traffic signal systems, it can provide stable and long-lasting power support. Meanwhile, it is also widely used in mobile power fields such as golf carts and floor cleaning equipment, as well as efficient energy storage solutions in renewable energy systems like solar and wind energy.With its deep cycle design and maximum capacity provided, the GBS series batteries ensure excellent performance and a long service life in various harsh usage scenarios.
