Product details
BC18-12 is a high-quality valve-regulated lead-acid battery from B.B. Battery's BC series, with a nominal voltage of 12V and nominal capacity of 18Ah. It is a maintenance-free and safe power solution. The battery case is made of sturdy opaque impact-resistant ABS plastic, and the battery cover is firmly connected to the case, ensuring excellent structural integrity. Its terminal area is specially sealed to effectively prevent leakage. Terminal designs vary by series; BC18-12 offers standard and optional terminal types to meet different installation requirements. Six holes on the battery cover are used for filling electrolyte during production, after which a pressure relief valve made of non-combustible material is installed.This design not only ensures a high level of fire and explosion safety but also achieves true maintenance-free operation, eliminating the need for users to add water to the battery. The non-free acid design makes it a leak-proof battery, providing greater peace of mind during use.
In terms of internal structure, both the positive and negative plates of BC18-12 are coated with high-performance paste coatings and use absorbent glass fiber separator technology. This technology enables efficient internal gas recombination, significantly reducing water loss and extending battery life. With compact dimensions of 181mm (length) × 76mm (width) × 166mm (height), the total weight is approximately 5.62 kg, enabling it to flexibly adapt to various installation spaces. A prominent advantage is that the battery supports horizontal and vertical installation, providing users with great installation flexibility, but it should be noted that inversion is prohibited.
In terms of performance, the nominal capacity of BC18-12 at a 20-hour rate is 18 Ah, and its expected service life under normal operating conditions can reach 5 to 7 years, demonstrating excellent durability. The entire BC series of batteries has a wide capacity range, from 4.5 Ah to 230 Ah, capable of meeting different power requirements.BC series batteries are ideal power choices for low-power uninterruptible power supply systems, fire and safety alarm systems, emergency lighting, security monitoring systems, access control systems, and various medical equipment. Specifically for the BC18-12 model, it is very suitable for providing backup power for uninterruptible power supplies and is recommended for scenarios requiring backup time of 30 minutes or longer. In addition, it can also reliably power fishing lights, various emergency lighting devices, as well as cameras or video recorders. Its stable output characteristics ensure the continuous operation of key equipment.
