Product details
GBS12/85B.B. Battery belongs to the Zelus GBS Series, which is a valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery adopting gel electrolyte technology. Its core lies in mixing sulfuric acid with silica fume to form a stable and immobile gel-like substance. This GEL technology almost completely avoids the electrolyte evaporation and overflow problems common in traditional flooded batteries, thus effectively preventing the corrosion risks caused by them. At the same time, gel batteries exhibit more superior performance, including stronger resistance to extreme temperatures, as well as excellent impact and vibration resistance.Its valve regulation system can safely discharge the internally generated gas, ensuring safe use. In structure, it is similar to traditional wet unsealed batteries, but the key difference is replacing antimony in the lead plates with calcium. This improvement, while retaining the original mechanical strength, significantly reduces the battery's gas evolution tendency.
The GBS series batteries offer an overall voltage of 6V or 12V, with a wide capacity range from 7Ah to 225Ah, providing users with flexible options. The installation method is also very convenient, supporting both horizontal and vertical installation positions.Under normal operating conditions, the expected float charge service life of this series of batteries is as long as 12 years, with a cycle life of up to 2500 cycles, demonstrating excellent durability.
Specifically, the GBS12/85 model is a 12V battery with a nominal capacity of 85Ah. The battery weighs approximately 29.5 kilograms. The external dimensions are designed to be compact, with a length of approximately 329 mm, a width of approximately 172 mm, and a height of approximately 214.5 mm. These parameters allow it to be flexibly adapted in the integration of various equipment.
This battery, with its deep cycle design and gel electrolyte technology, is designed to provide maximum capacity and deep discharge performance.Its self-discharge rate is extremely low, with monthly capacity loss less than 2%, making it highly suitable for scenarios requiring long-term backup power. The fully maintenance-free design eliminates the need for regular water replenishment, significantly reducing maintenance work. The gel electrolyte completely fills the interior of the battery, not only helping heat to be uniformly conducted to the shell and improving performance stability in high-temperature environments, but also effectively preventing electrolyte stratification, which is one of the key factors for extending the battery's cycle life. The special pressure valve design ensures precise opening and closing pressure distribution, which is crucial for protecting the battery structure and maintaining long-life cycles.
Therefore, GBS series batteries, including the GBS12/85 model, are ideal power solutions for numerous critical application areas. It is widely used in uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, fire and safety alarm systems, emergency lighting and monitoring systems, as well as various telecommunication facilities and medical equipment. In terms of public infrastructure, it serves as a reliable energy source for street lighting and traffic signals. Meanwhile, it is also suitable for mobile power equipment such as golf carts and floor cleaning equipment. Especially in the renewable energy field, such as the energy storage link of solar photovoltaic power plants and wind power systems, its long cycle life, high temperature resistance, and deep cycle capability make it the first choice for efficient and stable energy storage.
