Robust construction for industrial applications

Powerful in industrial use

The GF 06 160 V1 is designed for applications in demanding material handling, intralogistics as well as for mobile machines. It delivers constant energy even under tough conditions and ensures a reliable power supply across many charging cycles.

Efficiency through gel technology

Thanks to dryfit® gel technology, the battery is maintenance-free, as the electrolyte is bound in the gel and therefore no topping up with water is necessary. The extremely low self-discharge also ensures a long shelf life without loss of performance.

Robust and durable

With a cycling capacity of up to 700 charging cycles, the battery stands out for its high reliability. The robust housing and sealed design provide safety and stability even in harsh environments.
