Microtex 2v Gel battery technology
What is a gel battery?
2v Tgel battery in PPCP containers & steel modules are designed for deep discharge and float long-duration applications in the Solar, Energy Backup, Telecom & Power industries. Among the few T Gel type battery manufacturers in India, Microtex TGel batteries for inverters are manufactured using the best industry techniques, extensive testing, and the highest quality components. The PPCP plastic containers maintain their properties at a wide range of temperatures from −20 to 55 °C (−4 to 131 °F).
What is the advantage of a gel battery solar? Do gel batteries last longer?
Microtex gel batteries have imported German pressure regulating vent valves and no openings for water levels to check. Being a sealed battery, there is no risk of acid spillage. Gel battery can be installed in any position or configuration. Recharging is performed much more efficiently due to the special design of the active materials for faster charge acceptance, with unique special nanocarbon additives. Gel battery inside your battery room gives you complete freedom of maintenance.
