Gembird BAT-12V17AH/4 UPS battery Sealed Lead Acid 12V 17Ah

The Gembird BAT-12V17AH/4 is a sealed lead acid (VRLA) rechargeable battery with a nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity of 17 Ah. It is designed for use in UPS systems and other standby power applications. The battery uses immobilized electrolyte absorbed in separators and plates, making it maintenance-free, leak-proof and operable in any orientation. Built with one-way pressure relief valves, it vents gas in the event of overcharge to prevent excessive pressure build-up.

Advantages

This sealed lead acid battery requires no maintenance, does not leak, and can be installed in any position. The absorbed electrolyte design reduces the risk of acid spills and the integrated one-way valves improve safety by releasing excess gas during accidental overcharge. Compact dimensions and a weight suitable for most UPS enclosures make it practical for backup power installations.
