Description
Product information
The Yuasa REC22-12I is a cycle-resistant VRLA industrial battery. It supplies 12 volts and 22 Ah (at 20 hours) and features a high cycle life, low impedance and stable power output in a compact design. It is ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including mobile devices, cleaning machines, rehabilitation and medical technology, photovoltaic buffering, measurement and control technology, as well as UPS systems in cyclic operation.
Highlights at a glance
- Cycle-resistant: Up to 1400 cycles at 25 percent DOD
- Reliable capacity: 22 Ah at 20-hour discharge to 10.5 V, 19.7 Ah at 10-hour discharge to 10.8 V.
- Flexible installation: Operation possible in any position, except permanently upside down.
- Low self-discharge: About 3 percent per month at 20 °C.

Maximum performance for demanding cycle applications
The REC22-12I is designed for repeated charging and discharging operations. AGM technology and valve-regulated oxygen recombination ensure efficient gas retention and low maintenance requirements. Low impedance supports high peak currents, so sensitive loads are reliably supplied even with dynamic load profiles.
Efficiency meets long service life
In standby operation, a float charge voltage of 13.65 V ±1 percent per block is applied, which is adjusted by a temperature compensation of minus 3 mV per cell and degree Celsius. For cyclic or boost charging, 14.52 V ±3 percent per block is provided, with compensation of minus 4 mV per cell and degree Celsius. The recommended current limit is 5.5 A in both float and cyclic operation. The service life in use is confirmed by the EUROBAT classification General Purpose 6 to 9 years and a Yuasa Design Life specification of 7 years at 20 °C.
Technology for flexible applications
The operating temperature range includes discharge from -15 °C to +40 °C, charging from 0 °C to +40 °C and storage from -15 °C to +50 °C. Each cell is equipped with a low pressure relief valve. As VRLA batteries release hydrogen, it is important not to operate them in gas-tight enclosures and to ensure adequate ventilation.

FAQ about the Yuasa REC22-12I
For which applications is the REC22-12I typical?
The REC22-12I is ideally suited for cyclic operations in the areas of mobility, leisure and industry, as it is designed for high cycle resistance and rapid recovery after deep discharge.
How cycle-resistant is the REC22-12I?
The REC22-12I typically exhibits the following cycle resistance up to a remaining capacity of 80%: 300 cycles are possible at 100% depth of discharge (DoD), 500 cycles at 75% DoD, 600 cycles at 50% DoD and 1400 cycles at 25% DoD.
Are there any special safety features?
VRLA batteries can release hydrogen gas. Ensure sufficient ventilation and avoid operation in hermetically sealed enclosures. Each cell is equipped with a low pressure relief valve.
Which chargers or solar charge controllers are suitable?
Use constant voltage devices suitable for VRLA-AGM batteries. Observe the voltages specified in the data sheet and take temperature compensation into account.
How is the battery installed?
The battery can be installed in any position, but not permanently upside down. The electrical connection is made via M5 thread connections. Ensure a tightening torque of 2 to 3 Nm, correct polarity and adequate ventilation.

The Vision 6FM75TDX is a high-performance, cycle-proof and valve-regulated lead-acid battery (VRLA) with 12 Volt nominal voltage and 75 Ah capacity. Designed for demanding cyclic applications, this battery combines maintenance-free AGM technology with a robust design. It offers a reliable and long-lasting energy solution for applications where repeated charging and discharging is a daily occurrence, such as in solar technology, mobile applications or rehabilitation technology.Highlights at a glanceHigh cycle stability: Developed for demanding cyclic use with a long service life.Strong capacity: 75 Ah at 12 V for long-lasting and reliable power supply.Maintenance-free AGM technology: The advanced AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology ensures leak-proof and maintenance-free operation.Low self-discharge: With only about 3% self-discharge per month, the battery is ready for use even after longer periods of disuse.Flexible installation: Operation is possible in all positions, with the exception of continuous upside-down use.Robust construction: The durable ABS plastic housing reliably protects the battery against mechanical impact.Reliable energy for demanding cyclesThe Vision 6FM75TDX has been specially optimised for cyclic operation. It delivers a nominal capacity of 75 Ah on a 20-hour discharge (C20). Its particular strength lies in its ability to be repeatedly deeply discharged and recharged without significant loss of capacity. This makes it the ideal choice for solar installations, electric vehicles and other mobile power supplies that require constant and reliable performance.Advanced technology for maximum longevityThanks to the VRLA technology (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) in combination with the AGM system, where the electrolyte is contained in a glass fibre mat, the 6FM75TDX is fully sealed and maintenance-free. This not only prevents leaks, but also enables efficient gas recombination within the cell. The battery features low internal resistance, allowing high current draw. The low self-discharge rate ensures that the stored energy is preserved for long periods, which is particularly advantageous for seasonally used equipment.Features ModelVision 6FM75TDX Cyclic Battery typeVRLA AGM Nominal voltage (V)12 Capacity (Ah)75 (at 20h rate) Maximum discharge current750A (for 5 seconds) Charge voltage (float)13.6V - 13.8V Charge voltage (cycle operation)14.4V - 15.0V Operating temperature (°C)Charge: 0 ~ 40 / Discharge: -20 ~ 50 Storage temperature (°C)-20 ~ 40 Service lifeapprox. 600 cycles at 80% depth of discharge Dimensions (L/W/H, mm)260 x 168 x 214 Weight (kg)approx. 23.5 ConnectionM6 internal thread CertificationsISO9001, ISO14001, CE, UL FAQs about the Vision 6FM75TDX lead-acid batteryFor which applications is the Vision 6FM75TDX suitable?This battery is specially designed for cyclic applications and is excellently suited for:Solar and photovoltaic off-grid systemsMotorhomes, caravans and boatsElectric wheelchairs and mobility scootersCleaning machines and automated guided vehicles (AGVs)Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with high cycle requirementsWhat does the term "cycle-proof" mean?Cycle-proof means that the battery is designed to be frequently and deeply discharged and then fully recharged. Unlike a conventional starter battery, which is designed for short, high current surges, a cycle-proof battery retains its capacity over many of these charge and discharge cycles.Is the battery completely maintenance-free?Yes, thanks to the sealed AGM technology, the battery is completely maintenance-free. No topping up with distilled water is required and it is protected against leakage.How should the battery be charged to maximise its service life?For maximum service life, we recommend using a good quality charger with an IUoU charging profile suitable for AGM batteries. The charging voltage should be between 14.4 V and 15.0 V in cyclic operation at 20 °C. The maximum charging current should not exceed 22.5 A.Can I connect several of these batteries together?Yes, you can connect several Vision 6FM75TDX batteries in series to increase the voltage (e.g. two for a 24 V system), or in parallel to increase the capacity. Please ensure that you only connect batteries of the same type, age and state of charge.What storage conditions and temperature ranges apply?Charging: 0 °C to +40 °CDischarging: −20 °C to +50 °CStorage (fully charged): −20 °C to +40 °CAlways store the battery fully charged in a cool, dry place. Due to the low self-discharge rate, recharging is only required every six months during longer storage.
