Description
The gel electrolyte does not stratify and the tubular plates tolerate deep discharges well, so the series is used where the battery is cycled more often than in an ordinary UPS. The batteries are maintenance-free, gas recombines inside, and there is no water topping up. The manufacturer allows horizontal installation, so tall 2 V cells can be laid on a rack in several tiers. The OPzV cells are made to DIN 40742, and the OPzV bloc monoblocks of 6 and 12 V are convenient for small automation and communication batteries. Compliance with IEC 60896-21/22 confirms the requirements for sealed lead-acid batteries.
How to choose
The format is determined by the battery voltage and capacity. Large DC batteries are built from 2 V cells, and for small ones 6 or 12 V blocks are more convenient. Gel with a service life of up to 20 years is justified when discharges are frequent or long. If the battery only waits for a rare mains outage, an AGM series is enough, for example grid | power VR M with a service life of up to 15 years. For warm server rooms with temperatures up to +55 °C, grid | Xtreme VR is suitable.

FAQ
What is the service life of grid | power VR L gel OPzV?
The design life is up to 20 years. This is more than for the manufacturer's AGM series with a life of 12–15 years.
Can OPzV cells be installed horizontally?
Yes, the series allows horizontal installation. This way 2 V cells fit into low cabinets and multi-tier racks.
What voltage do OPzV bloc blocks have?
The blocks are made for 6 and 12 V, and individual OPzV cells have a voltage of 2 V.
Why is OPzV gel better than AGM for a substation?
Gel electrolyte with tubular plates better withstands long and repeated discharges and gives a service life of up to 20 years. The 2 V cells are made to DIN 40742.
