Product details
BPL17-12 is a 12V integral valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery from the BPL series of B.B. Battery. The core advantage of this battery is its maintenance-free design, which requires no water replenishment during its service life. It also adopts advanced absorbent glass fiber separator technology, achieving efficient gas recombination and ensuring no free acid inside, making it a truly leak-proof battery. Its shell is made of sturdy impact-resistant ABS plastic, with a firmly connected battery cover and good sealing in the terminal area, providing high safety.The six holes on the battery cover are used for electrolyte filling during the production process. The subsequently installed pressure relief valve, made of non - combustible materials, further ensures the battery's safety against fire and explosion in abnormal conditions.
In terms of technical parameters, BPL17 - 12 has a wide range of discharge rate capacities. Its nominal capacity at the 20 - hour rate is 17Ah, 14.45Ah at the 5 - hour rate, and at a high discharge rate, the capacity at the 30 - minute rate can reach 8.5Ah, which enables it to adapt to the power requirements of different loads. The battery has a compact size, with a length of 181mm, a width of 76mm, a height of 166mm, and a weight of approximately 6.15kg, making it easy to integrate into various devices. The terminal design is flexible, with the standard configuration being a Type B1 terminal located at position 7;It is also available with a Type T2I1 terminal at position 6, providing users with connection convenience. An important installation feature is that the battery supports horizontal and vertical installation, which provides great flexibility for the internal spatial layout of the equipment, but it should be noted that inversion is prohibited.
BPL17 - 12 is specially designed for scenarios requiring reliable backup power. It is particularly recommended for applications requiring a backup time of 30 minutes or longer. Its low self - discharge rate ensures that the battery maintains sufficient charge during storage and is always ready. This makes it an ideal power choice for low - power uninterruptible power supply systems, fire and safety alarm systems, emergency lighting, monitoring systems, and access control systems.In addition, it is also widely used in medical equipment, telecommunication facilities, power supply networks, oil and gas industry, rural estates, hotel, catering and store equipment, as well as renewable energy systems represented by solar and wind energy. Portable or outdoor equipment such as cameras, fishing lights, and lawn mowers can also benefit from its stable power.
In terms of lifespan and reliability, BPL17-12 inherits the excellent genes of the BPL series. According to the Eurobat standard, it is a long-life battery and is expected to have a service life of up to 12 years under normal working conditions. The BPL series batteries cover a capacity range from 3.3Ah to 210Ah, which can meet the different power storage needs from small portable devices to large fixed facilities, providing various electronic devices and critical systems with long-lasting, safe, and maintenance-free power support.
