New Low Profile VRLA Battery from Enersys Provides Same Operating Capacity in Smaller Design
Reading, PA, May 2004 - EnerSys has released a new low profile, front terminal valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) battery that provides the same capacity as the previous model, with a 10% reduction in height. Measuring 561 mm X 125 mm X 283 mm (22.1" x 4.9" x 11.1"), the new 12V155FS battery is ideal for applications where low profile, high capacity battery power is required, such as integrated power enclosures used in the wireless industry, as well as in telecommunication and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) applications.
The unit is designed for safe operation. The container and cover are made from UL94 V-0 flame retardant ABS material, which is highly resistant to shock and vibration, and provides superior mechanical strength. Acid spills are avoided through the battery's separators encased in low resistance microporous glass fiber, which absorbs the electrolyte in the event of accidental damage to the battery.
The new 12 V, 155 Ah battery, part of EnerSys' PowerSafe V range of front terminal VRLA batteries, employs positive and negative plates in a lead-tin-calcium construction. The 12V155FS' front terminal connections enable fast and easy installation, inspection, and maintenance. The terminals feature brass inserts, offering maximum conductivity with a high compression grommet, assuring prolonged product life.
The new 12V155FS has a capacity of 155 Ah at the 8-hour rate to 1.75 Vpc at 25°C (77°F), a capacity of 150 Ah at the 10-hour rate to 1.80 Vpc at 20°C (68°F), and a
10-year design life at 25°C (77°F).
Pricing for a 12V155FS starts at $346 per unit. Delivery begins in July 2004.
