Compact power for critical systems

With a capacity of 1.2 Ah (20-hour discharge to 1.75 V/cell), the NP1.2-12 lead-acid battery provides a reliable power supply for mission-critical applications. Thanks to its high peak current output, it is particularly suitable for devices that require higher power for short periods, such as in alarm or emergency scenarios.

Maintenance-free technology with robust construction

AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology completely binds the electrolyte within the separator, preventing any free electrolyte from escaping. The integrated oxygen recombination (> 99 %) prevents water loss and makes the battery virtually maintenance-free. Low-pressure safety valves ensure controlled gas release and close automatically.

 

The housing is made of robust ABS plastic (UL94:HB); a flame-retardant version (UL94:V0) is available as an option. Thanks to its compact design, the battery is easy to integrate, even in space-constrained systems.
