Industrial VRLA Lead Acid Battery 12V 38Ah Long Life Maintenance Free

The GP38-12 is a high-performance industrial VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) battery utilizing mature AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology. Combining the portability of mid-sized batteries with the durability of larger cells, it is the preferred backup power solution for industrial DC panels, mid-sized UPS systems, and telecommunications infrastructure. Its valve-regulated design ensures a true "plug-and-play" experience with zero maintenance required throughout its service life.

Key Specifications

• Model: GP38-12
• Nominal Voltage: 12V
• Nominal Capacity: 38Ah (20HR)
• Design Life: 10 years

Advantages

• Superior Heavy-Load Performance:
  The GP38-12 features thicker specialized plates and a larger surface area of active material. This ensures minimal voltage drop and maximum stability when dealing with industrial motor startups or high-power inverter current surges.
• High Recombination Efficiency:
  By utilizing the high-efficiency oxygen recombination principle, gases generated during charging are converted back into liquid at an efficiency rate exceeding 99%. This eliminates the need for water topping and acid mist emissions, allowing for direct installation in server rooms or office-based low-voltage cabinets.
• Low Internal Resistance & Self-Discharge:
  Built with high-purity electrolytes and alloy plates, the battery features ultra-low internal resistance and excellent charge acceptance. At 25°C, the monthly self-discharge rate is below 3%, ensuring ample power even after long-term storage as a standby source.
• Industrial-Grade Safety Design:
  The high-strength, flame-retardant ABS casing is paired with a one-way pressure relief valve system. In the event of accidental overcharging, the safety valve automatically vents and resets, preventing casing bulge and effectively mitigating fire or explosion risks.

Typical Application Scenarios

• Mid-Sized UPS/EPS Systems: Providing reliable emergency power for medium server rooms and factory emergency lighting.
• Substation DC Panels: Serving as the backup DC power for relay protection, automation devices, and circuit breaker operations.
• Telecom & Communication: Core energy storage for small mobile base stations, microwave stations, and Base Station Controllers (BSC).
• Automated Industrial Robotics: Power or control backup for Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) and automated warehousing systems.
• Renewable Energy Systems: Acting as an energy smoothing unit for small wind or off-grid solar installations.
