EnerSys DataSafe HX 16V Front Terminal Batteries

Eliminate the difficult maintenance and burdensome space requirements of top terminated 12V Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) batteries. Revolutionary, DataSafe® HX front terminal 16V UPS batteries, available in 550 WPC, 800 WPC and 925 WPC sizes, are more space efficient, more cost effective and easier to maintain than 12V batteries. They use proven Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) technology, are conducive to incorporating monitoring systems and scale easily to larger capacity UPS systems with one-third fewer parallel battery strings. Alpine Power Systems is a platinum distributor of EnerSys battery products.

Enersys DataSafe® HX Front Terminal 16V Batteries Benefits:

• Smaller footprint per kilowatt.

• Improves reliability.

• Complete front access.

• Eliminates wasted headspace found in typical 12V top terminated designs.

• 800 and 925 W.P.C. design reduces number of parallel strings required.

• Up to 50% fewer connections means less maintenance.

• Easy front terminal access simplifies maintenance and installation.

• Scales easily to large capacity UPS Systems.

• No costly slide out trays required to obtain terminal access.

• Fits within many existing cabinet designs including DataSafe HX Front Terminal 16V Series Battery Racks.

EnerSys® engineers set out to develop a true UPS design, front terminal battery that would be cost effective, space efficient and easy to maintain. It also had to be conducive to incorporating monitoring systems, adaptable to existing cabinet designs, and built on proven electrochemistry and design practices. Finally, the battery had to be capable of scaling to larger capacities to minimize the number of strings in larger UPS systems. Compared with top terminated 12V batteries, DataSafe® HX front terminated 16V batteries offer several distinct advantages:

• More than 20% space savings for a full 15 minute run time for 750kVA UPS systems

• 925 WPC design reduces the number of parallel strings required

• Up to 50% fewer connections means less maintenance

• No wasted space

• Scales easily to large capacity UPS systems

• Fits within many existing cabinet designs

• Cabinets are equipped with locking feature
