Product details
B.B. Battery BPL40-12 is a high-performance 12V valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) battery, belonging to the BPL series, which has a wide capacity range from 3.3Ah to 210Ah. This battery adopts a sturdy, opaque, impact-resistant ABS plastic case, with the battery cover firmly connected to the case to ensure reliable sealing of the terminal area. Its terminal design varies according to specific series and models, providing standard B2 terminal type and optional terminal types such as I1, I2 to meet different connection requirements.During the production process, the electrolyte is filled through six holes on the battery cover, followed by installing a pressure relief valve made of non-combustible materials, which significantly enhances the battery's fire and explosion safety level.
In terms of internal structure, the positive and negative plates of BPL40-12 are coated with a special paste-like coating and use absorbent glass fiber separator (AGM) technology. This technology not only enables efficient recombination of internal gases, making it truly maintenance-free without the need for user water supplementation, but also ensures that there is no free acid inside the battery, completely leak-proof.Thanks to these features, the battery supports flexible installation in horizontal and vertical directions, providing great installation convenience for users, but note that it is prohibited to use it upside down. Its low self-discharge rate ensures that the power is maintained for a long time during storage.
In terms of electrical performance, the nominal voltage of BPL40-12 is 12 volts. Its capacity varies with different discharge rates. Under the standard 20-hour rate discharge condition, the nominal capacity is 40 ampere-hours (Ah); at 5-hour rate it is 34Ah; and at 30-minute rate it is 20Ah, making it especially suitable for scenarios requiring backup power support for 30 minutes or longer. The physical dimensions of the battery are length 197 mm (7.76 inches), width 165 mm (6.5 inches), height 171 mm (6.73 inches), with the same total height, weight approximately 14.6 kg (32.19 lbs), compact and sturdy in structure.
The B.B. Battery BPL series batteries have an expected service life of up to 12 years under normal operating conditions, complying with Eurobat standards for long-life batteries. This makes BPL40-12 an ideal choice for numerous critical backup power and power applications. It is widely used in uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, fire and safety alarm systems, emergency lighting, monitoring systems, and access control systems. In the medical field, it reliably powers electronic medical devices and electric wheelchairs.Additionally, it is also an excellent energy solution for light electric vehicles such as golf carts and lawn mowers.
Furthermore, its application scope extends to telecommunication facilities, power supply networks, power industry, mining, oil and gas industries, as well as equipment power supply for rural estates, hotels, restaurants, and shops (HORECA). In the field of renewable energy, such as solar and wind energy storage systems, and some auxiliary power supplies for electric vehicles, its reliable presence can also be seen. In conclusion, with its features of maintenance-free, high safety, long service life, and flexible installation, BPL40-12 provides strong support for various scenarios requiring stable and reliable DC power supply.
