The 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery is a compact accumulator with a standard format that does not require maintenance.

 

Characteristics of the GEL 12V 40Ah Tensite Battery

 

The 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery is a small size GEL electrolyte accumulator with no need for maintenance. Optimal for installation indoors or in small, ventilated spaces, providing highly satisfactory performance among compact battery models thanks to its great versatility. With technical characteristics that make it very competitive compared to other models on the market due to its great value for money.

The 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery is easy to transport and handle. Even if it tips over, it will not spill acid, but it is recommended that it always remain upright. To optimize the useful life of the Tensite GEL 12V 40Ah Battery, it is also recommended that its discharges not exceed 30%, so it is a battery that, although it does occasionally accept deep discharges, if they are done regularly, it will be reduced. Noticeably its useful life.

The Tensite 12V 40Ah GEL Battery is a 12V voltage battery, sealed monobloc and deep cycle in GEL technology. It offers 12V because it has 6 cells of 2V voltage each, and they are internally connected in series. It is of the monobloc type because it provides 12V in a single package, unlike other types where several vessels are needed to form 12V.

This type of VRLA is sealed and does not require any maintenance. Thanks to this quality, we can use the battery without problem indoors or in places without ventilation. It is deep cycle, although with deep discharges we will significantly reduce its useful life. At 80% it offers about 600 cycles, while with 50% discharges we double the cycles to 1200. We do not recommend exceeding this figure if we want to preserve a good useful life for our 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery.

Among the characteristics of the GEL 12V 40Ah voltage battery, we can mention the following:

 

- Dimensions of 197 x 165 x 175 (including the connection terminal) mm.

- Approximate weight of 13.5 kg

- Capacity in C10: 40Ah.

- Screw terminal for or

- Absolute limit voltage with discharged battery: 10.8V.

- VRLA battery without maintenance (Valve Regulated Lead Acid).

- GEL technology with acid mixed with silica powder.

- Lead plates with calcium to facilitate the recombination of gases.

 

This 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery is manufactured with GEL technology, it guarantees the best duration in monobloc batteries and the convenience of forgetting about maintenance. In return, the GEL technology is more expensive than the AGM and especially the open lead technology, because its advantages are remarkable, mainly in terms of the number of life cycles of the same, so that the long-term investment term is profitable.

To charge the 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery, it is imperative to use a charger suitable for this VRLA battery technology, because it requires a lower charge voltage compared to a conventional battery and also respect the charge intensity that for this battery model does not we recommend that it be greater than 5A. If we use it in a photovoltaic solar installation, a charge regulator appropriate to its characteristics and properly configured for this 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery must be used.

 

Common uses of the 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery

 

The 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery is a battery that we can use for multiple uses, such as lighting, signaling, small solar installations, auxiliary battery for caravans, etc. Avoid using these batteries for traction applications such as wheelchairs, scooters, scooters, or that have to power an electric motor that moves a vehicle in general. For other applications, it is always recommended that the Tensite GEL 12V 40Ah Battery should remain charged most of the time because the useful life is progressively reduced the longer the battery remains discharged.

 

Installation of the GEL 12V 40Ah Tensite Battery

 

The 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery has to work in a vertical position, with the terminals at the top. It can be tilted or laid down, but when it is in operation, it must remain vertical because internally the battery is designed to facilitate the recombination of gases and their internal recirculation.

Keep the 12V 40Ah Tensite GEL Battery in a cool and dry place, do not put it outdoors and make sure that it is in an optimal state of charge at all times.
