Product details
GBS12/170B.B. is a Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid Battery (VRLA) from the Zelus GBS series, utilizing advanced gel electrolyte technology. This technology mixes sulfuric acid with silica fume to form a stable, non-flowing gel-like substance, fundamentally solving the common problems of electrolyte evaporation, overflow, and the resulting corrosion issues in traditional flooded batteries. This makes the battery cleaner and safer in applications. Meanwhile, gel batteries exhibit excellent environmental adaptability, with stronger resistance to extreme temperatures, shocks, and vibrations, ensuring reliable operation under harsh conditions.Its valve regulation system effectively manages internal air pressure, safely expelling excess gas. In structure, it replaces antimony in the lead plates with calcium, while maintaining excellent mechanical strength, significantly reducing gas evolution tendency and enhancing safety.
This battery provides a nominal capacity of up to 170 Ah (C100) at an overall voltage of 12 volts, with a wide capacity range from 7 Ah to 225 Ah available to meet different power reserve requirements. Thanks to its deep cycle design, it can deliver maximum capacity and withstand deep discharges, with a cycle life of up to 2500 cycles. The expected float charge service life under normal usage conditions exceeds 12 years, complying with Eurobat standards for long-life batteries.The battery has an extremely low self - discharge rate, with a monthly capacity loss of less than 2%, making it suitable for long - term standby. Its fully filled internal gel electrolyte not only effectively prevents acid stratification but also optimizes thermal conductivity, allowing internal heat to be uniformly transferred to the outer case, thus maintaining long - lasting and stable performance even in high - temperature environments. Additionally, the battery is completely maintenance - free and requires no water supplementation throughout its service life. The specially designed valve ensures precise pressure control, which is crucial for extending the battery's cycle life.
In terms of physical specifications, the GBS12/170 model battery has dimensions of length 522 mm, width 202 mm, height 216 mm, with an overall height of 219.5 mm, weight approximately 55 kg. It is equipped with standard B9 - type terminals and optionally available I3 - type terminals, offering flexible installation. It supports both horizontal and vertical installation positions, facilitating deployment in various spaces.
GBS series batteries are an ideal power solution for numerous critical and daily applications. Widely used in uninterruptible power supply systems, fire and safety alarm systems, emergency lighting, and security monitoring systems, providing uninterrupted power protection for critical facilities. In the communication field, it provides stable power for telecommunication base stations and equipment; in public infrastructure, it reliably powers street lighting and traffic signals.In addition, it is also commonly found in mobile or specialized equipment such as medical equipment, golf carts, and floor cleaning equipment. In the field of renewable energy, such as energy storage in solar power plants and wind power systems, the GBS12/170 battery, with its deep cycle capability and long lifespan, has become a high-efficiency and reliable energy storage option.
