Stationary battery Genesis G42EP EP Pure lead 42Ah 12V
The 12 V, 42 Ah Genesis G42EP stationary battery from the EP Pure lead range with AGM technology is designed for UPS, alarms, telecoms and emergency lighting. Measuring 196 × 165 × 169 mm and the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for UPS, alarm and emergency systems fitted from the factory with a 42 Ah battery of this format.
- Low self-discharge and high reliability.
- Standard format for UPS and emergency systems.
- AGM: faster recharging and better cycle resistance than a conventional battery.
- Instant response to mains failures.
Will it fit your current battery tray?
The Genesis G42EP is made in the 196 × 165 × 169 mm format and weighs 14.90 kg. The positive terminal on the right decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. It uses M6 hembra terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.
What the Genesis G42EP is for
With 42 Ah, the Genesis G42EP gives your UPS or emergency system the autonomy it needs. Replace all the batteries in the set at once. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 14.90 kg and M6 hembra terminals.
The Genesis G42EP: EP Pure lead range and AGM technology
The G42EP is part of the Genesis EP Pure lead range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
AGM means the acid is held in a glass mat instead of floating free. That is why the battery can be installed in the cabin without gases, survives more cycles and recovers its charge quickly.
Why choose Genesis batteries
Genesis EP batteries stand out for power density and reliability in industrial vehicles, boats and emergency systems. We guarantee that every Genesis arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.
Manufacturer's warranty
The Genesis G42EP comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. If it fails through a defect within the warranty period, we replace it at no cost to you.
How to make it last longer
Charge with a charger that has an AGM mode: it limits the voltage and protects the glass-fibre separators. Check the float voltage of the UPS or charger: a voltage that is too high shortens the life of a sealed battery.
When you get it and how to return it
Orders placed before 6:00 pm with the battery in stock ship the same day. Delivery in mainland Spain and Portugal takes 24-48 working hours; for the Balearic Islands and the rest of the European Union allow 3 to 5 working days. You have 14 days to return an unused battery; in mainland Spain and Portugal collection is free. We email you the tracking number as soon as the parcel ships.

Frequently asked questions
Is the G42EP model AGM? What does this technology offer?
Yes. The G42EP from Genesis uses AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology: a sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is absorbed in a glass-fibre mat. It withstands more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional one, handles heat better and is the required technology for devices with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.
How do I change this battery step by step?
In most devices it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on our blog. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — with positive on the right match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On devices with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.
What is the service life of the G42EP model?
Expected lifespan of the Genesis G42EP is 5 to 8 years in mild-climate device use with Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.
What are the measurements of the G42EP model?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 197×165×170 mm — also written as 197x165x170 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your device before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.
What polarity does the Genesis G42EP battery have?
Polarity: positive on the right. To identify it, place the battery in front of you with the terminals facing you and check which side the positive (+, marked with a red ring) is on. Before buying, verify the polarity matches your current battery: switching polarity forces longer cables or system reconfiguration, with short-circuit risk.
What are the equivalents of the G42EP model?
Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop devices. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
