Product details
The GBS12/85B.B. battery belongs to the Zelus GBS Series, which is a valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) battery with gelified electrolyte. Its core technology lies in mixing sulfuric acid with silica fume to form a fixed gel-like substance as the electrolyte. This gel electrolyte design fundamentally solves the common problems of electrolyte evaporation, overflow and resulting corrosion in traditional flooded batteries. Meanwhile, it endows the battery with superior performance, including stronger resistance to extreme temperatures, as well as excellent impact and vibration resistance.This series of batteries adopts a valve regulation system that can safely discharge the internal generated gas when necessary. Structurally, it is similar to unsealed wet batteries, but the key improvement is that antimony in the lead plates is replaced by calcium. This change significantly reduces the battery's gas evolution tendency while maintaining good mechanical properties.
The GBS series batteries offer overall voltage specifications of 6V or 12V, with a wide range of capacities from 7Ah to 225Ah, providing users with flexible options. The installation method is also very convenient, supporting horizontal or vertical installation. Under normal working conditions, the GBS series batteries have a long service life, expected to reach 12 years;In terms of cycle use, its deep cycle design enables a cycle life of up to 2500 cycles, meeting Eurobat's standards for long - life batteries. Taking the GBS12/85 model as an example, it has a nominal voltage of 12V, a nominal capacity of 85Ah at a specific discharge rate, a weight of approximately 29.5 kilograms (65.04 lbs), and is designed with a compact shape, making it easy to integrate into various devices.
The core advantage of this battery lies in the combination of its solid lead coating technology and gel electrolyte.This design not only ensures maximum capacity and deep discharge capability but also brings many practical advantages: The gel completely fills the internal space of the battery, facilitating uniform heat conduction to the outer shell, thereby enhancing its durability in high-temperature environments; The gelation of the electrolyte effectively prevents acid stratification and ensures performance stability; The battery is completely maintenance-free and does not require regular water replenishment; Its self-discharge rate is extremely low, with less than 2% capacity loss per month, making it very suitable for scenarios requiring long-term standby or intermittent use. In addition, the special valve equipped with the battery has precise on/off pressure control, which is crucial for optimizing internal gas management and extending the battery's cycle life.
Due to its reliability and durability, GBS series batteries are ideal power sources for uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), fire and safety alarm systems, emergency lighting and monitoring systems, telecommunication facilities, and various medical equipment. At the same time, it is also widely used in street lighting, traffic signals, golf carts, floor cleaning equipment, and other fields. In the renewable energy field, such as solar photovoltaic power plants and wind power systems, the long cycle life, high-temperature resistance, and maintenance-free advantages of GBS batteries are fully utilized, becoming a reliable support for energy storage.Whether used for backup of communication equipment or energy storage for off-grid solar systems, models like GBS12/85 can provide stable and long-lasting power support.
