Description
The positive grid is tubular and cast, and the gel electrolyte does not stratify and needs no topping up. Compliance with DIN 40742 and IEC 60896 confirms the parameters for stationary float operation. The cells can be installed horizontally, which is convenient on low racks and in cabinets of limited height, and it also simplifies access to the terminals. On request the case is made of ABS of class UL94 V0, which is needed at facilities with increased fire safety requirements. The 12 V monoblocks suit small UPS banks and telecom cabinets, while large batteries for DC buses of substations are assembled from 2 V cells.
How to choose
First determine the capacity and voltage of the bank. For small systems 12 V monoblocks are more convenient, and for large capacities 2 V cells are taken. If the battery cycles daily in a solar power plant, SMG/S with highly porous separators will suit better. When gel is not required and there is staff for maintenance, flooded SD/SDH will give 15 years and SGL/SGH 25 years of service.

FAQ
What is the service life of SMG gel batteries?
The manufacturer states a service life of 18 years. It is reached when operating on float charge in normal temperature conditions.
Can SMG gel cells be installed horizontally?
Yes, horizontal installation is permitted. It reduces the height of the battery on the rack and makes access to the terminals easier.
In which versions is the SMG series made?
There are 2 V cells for large batteries and 12 V monoblocks for compact UPS and telecom systems.
Is an SMG case ever fire-resistant?
On request the case is made of ABS of class UL94 V0. For facilities with fire safety requirements this option is stated in the order.
How do gel OPzV differ from flooded cells?
Gel SMG need no topping up and emit minimal gas, whereas flooded SD/SDH need topping up once per 3 years and a ventilated room.
