BAE Secura PVS solar

Technical Specification for Vented Lead-Acid Batteries (VLA)

1. Application
BAE Secura PVS solar batteries need only low maintenance and are
used to store electric energy in medium and large solar photovoltaic
installations.
Due to the robust tubular plate design BAE PVS batteries are excellent
suited for highest requirements regarding cycling ability and long lifetime.
