• 12 V block battery with 50 Ah (C5) and 55 Ah (C20)
• Up to 700 charging cycles according to IEC 60254-1
• Maintenance-free thanks to VRLA gel technology (no topping up with water required)
• Low self-discharge and long shelf life
• Robust construction for tough operating conditions

Powerful in industrial use

The GF 12 050 VG is particularly suitable for applications in intralogistics and material flow. It provides stable energy for mobile equipment and vehicles and impresses with its reliability, even during repeated charge and discharge cycles.

Efficiency through VRLA gel technology

Thanks to dryfit® gel technology, the battery is maintenance-free because the electrolyte is firmly bound in the gel, making it unnecessary to top up with water. This ensures maximum operational reliability and greatly minimises maintenance requirements.

Robust design for long service life

The GF 12 050 VG features high cycle stability of up to 700 charging cycles, ensuring a long service life. Its deep discharge protection makes it particularly reliable for demanding and long-lasting industrial applications.
