Product Features

Non-Spillable Sealed Design for Safety

The Shield 12V 12AH battery is equipped with a sealed, non-spillable design, preventing the risk of acid leakage or spillage. The Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) technology absorbs the electrolyte within the battery, preventing any acid from flowing freely, which not only ensures safety but also makes the battery ideal for use in confined spaces, mobile applications, or in sensitive environments. This makes the 12AL12MF safe to use in both residential and commercial settings.

AGM Technology for High Performance

The Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) technology used in this battery provides excellent charge retention and ensures quick recharge times. The AGM design helps to reduce the internal resistance of the battery, improving its efficiency and extending its overall service life. This advanced technology allows the 12AL12MF battery to provide reliable power even in high-demand applications, ensuring consistent performance and reducing the need for maintenance.

Maintenance-Free Operation

One of the key benefits of the Shield 12V 12AH battery is that it is maintenance-free. Users do not need to worry about checking or topping up the electrolyte, which is required for traditional flooded lead-acid batteries. This maintenance-free feature makes the 12AL12MF ideal for people who need reliable, low-maintenance power for systems like backup power units, security systems, or solar energy storage systems. Once installed, it works without the need for ongoing attention.

Long Service Life and Deep Discharge Recovery

The 12AL12MF is designed to withstand deep discharges without significantly affecting its service life. The AGM technology ensures that the battery can handle deep cycling, making it ideal for systems that are frequently charged and discharged, such as solar power setups or uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). Its long cycle life and excellent deep discharge recovery capabilities ensure that the battery will last for years, even with regular use.

Versatile Applications for Various Devices

The Shield 12V 12AH battery is a highly versatile energy storage solution. It can be used in a wide range of applications where reliable, consistent power is needed. Some of its primary uses include:

• Backup Power Systems: Ideal for providing power to critical systems during a power failure, including routers, modems, and small UPS systems.
• Security Systems: Powers alarm systems, CCTV cameras, and other security devices, ensuring your property remains protected even during power outages.
• Solar Power Systems: Excellent for solar energy storage in off-grid solar setups or solar lights, where reliable energy storage is essential for maintaining performance during the night or cloudy days.
• Medical Equipment: Powers essential medical devices such as oxygen concentrators, blood pressure monitors, and home medical devices that require reliable, uninterrupted power.
• Emergency Lighting: Ensures that emergency lighting and exit signs remain operational during power cuts.
• Toys and Gadgets: Can also be used to power battery-operated toys, robots, and other small electronics.

Environmentally Friendly and Safe

The 12AL12MF is designed to be environmentally friendly, as it is made of recyclable materials and contains no harmful chemicals or components. It is compliant with RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) standards, ensuring that it is safe for both users and the environment. Additionally, the sealed design helps to prevent the risk of acid leakage or environmental contamination, making it a safe and eco-conscious power solution.
