Product details
The BP12-6BP series B.B. Battery VRLA battery is a reliable and widely applicable 6V maintenance-free lead-acid battery with a nominal capacity of 12.0Ah (20-hour rate, final voltage 1.75V/cell). This battery adopts an opaque, impact-resistant ABS plastic case, with the battery cover firmly connected to the case, ensuring the tightness of the terminal area. Its terminals are designed as standard T1 (Faston Tab 187) type, with optional T2 terminals, providing users with flexible connection options.The six filling holes on the battery cover are used to fill the electrolyte during production, and then a pressure relief valve made of non-combustible material is installed. This design integrates a single-cell fireproof cap, effectively improving the battery's fire and explosion-proof safety level, ensuring safe operation even in abnormal conditions.
In terms of technical specifications, the BP12-6 battery exhibits excellent performance. Its internal resistance is as low as 9 milliohms (at full charge), capable of supporting a maximum discharge current of up to 180 amperes (for 5 seconds), while the maximum charging current is 3.6 amperes.The battery has a wide operating temperature range: 0°C to 40°C for charging, -20°C to 50°C for discharging, and a storage temperature range of -20°C to 40°C, enabling stable operation under various climate conditions. The physical dimensions are 151 mm (length) × 50 mm (width) × 94 mm (height), with a total height of 100 mm and a weight of approximately 1.98 kg. Its compact design facilitates easy installation and portability. The shell material is standard ABS (UL94 HB), with flame-retardant ABS (UL94 V-0) as an optional option, model BP12-6FR, to meet application requirements with higher safety standards.The core advantage of this battery lies in its maintenance-free design, requiring no water refill, with a leak-free structure and no free electrolyte, making it extremely clean and safe to use. Its self-discharge rate is extremely low, less than 3% per month, meaning it can maintain charge for a long time during storage. Another key feature is installation flexibility: the battery supports both horizontal and vertical installation, and is equipped with a handle for easy handling, greatly simplifying the installation process. According to Eurobat standards, BP series batteries have an expected service life of 8 to 10 years under normal operating conditions, reflecting their long lifespan and high reliability.
BP12-6 battery is specifically designed for scenarios requiring long-lasting and stable backup power, especially recommended for systems requiring 30 minutes or longer backup time. It is an ideal power choice for low-power UPS systems, fire and security alarm systems, emergency lighting, monitoring systems, access control systems, and various medical devices. Meanwhile, it is also widely used in power grids, power industry, mining, oil and gas, rural real estate, hotels, stores, etc. It can even serve as a reliable energy source for remote-controlled vehicles and aircraft power packs, as well as laboratory equipment.Its discharge characteristic data has been strictly tested at 25°C, providing constant current discharge parameters with different termination voltages ranging from 5 minutes to 20 hours, which provides a reliable basis for users to precisely design power supply solutions.
