SZ12-17

12V 17Ah(20hr)
Overview
The rechargeable batteries are lead-lead dioxide systems. The dilute sulfuric acid electrolyte is absorbed by
separators and plates and thus immobilized. Should the battery be accidentally overcharged producing
hydrogen and oxygen, special oneway valves allow the gases to escape thus avoiding excessive pressure
build-up. Otherwise, the battery is completely sealed and is, therefore, maintenance-free, leak proof and
usable in any position.
