Product Number: GF12051Y2
Variations
Heavy industrial traction applications demand a power source that can withstand sustained cyclic discharge without electrolyte stratification or maintenance intervention. The Sonnenschein GF12051Y2 is a 12V 56Ah gel traction battery from the GF-V dryfit? block range, engineered specifically for motive power duties in environments where reliability and minimal downtime are paramount.
Built around Sonnenschein's established dryfit? technology, this battery uses valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) construction in which the electrolyte is permanently immobilised within a gel matrix. This eliminates acid stratification, prevents spillage, and removes the requirement for water topping-up throughout the entire service life. The design is rated to 700 cycles, making it well suited to the repeated charge and discharge demands of shift-based industrial operation. Suitable applications include automated guided vehicles (AGVs), mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs), floor cleaning machines, walk-behind pallet trucks, and light electric vehicles.
The GF12051Y2 measures 278mm × 175mm – 190mm (L × W × H) and weighs 20.8 kg. It is fitted with a Type 1 terminal arrangement, Hold-down B00, and standard polarity (code 0). No direct cross-reference codes are held at time of publication; compatibility with start-stop applications is not confirmed – please refer to the product label. Capacity is rated at 56Ah (C20) at 12V.
This battery is available in related variants within the Sonnenschein GF-V block range, including GF12050V (PID000222308) and GF12051YG1 (PID000222310), which may differ in capacity, terminal configuration, or case specification.
This product is supplied with a 1-year warranty. Standard delivery: 1–3 working days within UK mainland. 30-day returns.
