## Description

**UPS batteries** for servers, telecom racks, alarm and security systems, medical equipment, fire panels and machinery that cannot tolerate even a brief outage.
**Sealed stationary AGM** with long float life (10-12 years) or **OPzV gel** for harsh environments.

## How to choose the right UPS battery

UPS batteries float-charge: 100% topped up permanently, energy only delivered on outages. Stationary AGM is designed for that role — sulphates very slowly, 8-12 years float at 25 °C. Above 30 °C, life halves every 8-10 °C (Arrhenius rule).

### Typical capacities by UPS size

UPS / application Typical capacity Battery voltage Technology
Small home UPS 7-9 Ah 12 V Stationary AGM
Rack 1-3 kVA 12-100 Ah 12 V Stationary AGM
5-10 kVA UPS 50-150 Ah 12 V series Stationary AGM
Data centre / industrial 200-1,500 Ah 2 V cells in series OPzS / OPzV

### UPS brand compatibility

Compatible with APC, Eaton, Riello, Salicru, Cyberpower, Schneider Electric, Vertiv, Liebert, MGE, Powerware, Tripp Lite. Most use standard 12 V formats of 7, 9, 12, 18, 26, 40, 65 or 100 Ah; simply match the physical format and the minimum capacity required by your UPS manufacturer.

## Frequently asked questions about UPS batteries

### **How long does a UPS battery last?**

8-12 years on float charge at 25 °C. That's far longer than a cranking battery, because it stays at 100% charge and only discharges during actual outages.

### **Why does heat shorten UPS battery life?**

Above 30 °C, service life halves for every extra 8-10 °C (the Arrhenius rule), so a well-ventilated or air-conditioned technical room significantly extends battery life.

### **Is it compatible with my APC, Eaton, Riello or Salicru UPS?**

Yes. Most of these manufacturers use standard 12 V batteries of 7, 9, 12, 18, 26, 40, 65 or 100 Ah; just match the physical format and the minimum capacity stated by your UPS maker.

### **What's the difference between stationary AGM and OPzS/OPzV for a UPS?**

Stationary AGM covers home and rack UPS units (7-150 Ah); data centres and industrial installations of 200-1,500 Ah use 2 V OPzS/OPzV cells wired in series.
