Product details
The GBS12/7B.B. battery is a product in the Zelus GBS series, which is a valve - regulated sealed lead - acid (VRLA) battery using gel electrolyte technology. Its core technology involves mixing sulfuric acid with silica fume to form a stable gel - like electrolyte. This immobile structure fundamentally solves the common problems of electrolyte evaporation, overflow and the resulting corrosion in traditional flooded batteries. Benefiting from the application of gel technology, the battery exhibits excellent environmental adaptability, with stronger ability to resist extreme temperatures, shocks and vibrations, ensuring stable operation under harsh conditions.Its valve adjustment system can safely discharge the internally generated gas. Meanwhile, the battery grid adopts an alloy design with calcium replacing antimony. While maintaining good mechanical strength, it significantly reduces the gassing tendency, making the battery safer and more durable.
The GBS series batteries provide a nominal voltage of 6V or 12V, with a capacity ranging from 7 to 225 Ah, offering users flexible choices. This GBS12/7 model has a nominal voltage of 12V and a capacity of 7 Ah under the C100 standard. Its design fully considers installation convenience and supports multiple installation methods such as horizontal and vertical.Under normal operating conditions, GBS series batteries have a float charge service life of over 12 years and can achieve up to 2500 cycle times under deep cycle applications, falling into the category of long-life batteries according to Eurobat standards. Its low self-discharge characteristic is particularly prominent, with a monthly capacity loss of less than 2%, reducing maintenance requirements. The fully filled gel inside the battery not only effectively prevents acid stratification but also optimizes the heat conduction path, allowing heat to be evenly dissipated to the shell, thus ensuring long-lasting performance in high-temperature environments. Additionally, its special valve is equipped with precise on/off pressure control, which is crucial for extending the battery's service life during cyclic use.
Specifically, in terms of technical parameters, the weight of the GBS12/7 model is approximately 2.45 kilograms (54.01 pounds). It has a compact shape with dimensions: Length (L) 151 mm (5.94 inches), Width (W) 65 mm (2.56 inches), Height (H) 93 mm (3.66 inches), Total Height (TH) 98 mm (3.86 inches). Terminals are available with standard T2 type options. As a maintenance-free battery, it requires no daily water replenishment, significantly reducing operational and maintenance costs.
This deep cycle battery, developed using solid lead coating and gel technology, aims to provide users with maximum capacity output and excellent discharge cycle performance.It is an ideal backup power source for uninterruptible power supply systems, fire and safety alarm systems, emergency lighting, and monitoring systems. Meanwhile, it performs reliably in scenarios such as telecommunication facilities, critical medical equipment, street lighting and traffic signals, golf carts, floor cleaning equipment, etc. Particularly in the renewable energy sector, such as energy storage units in solar photovoltaic power stations and wind power systems, the GBS12/7 battery, with its deep cycle capability, long service life, and low maintenance features, has become a trustworthy energy storage solution.
