VRLA battery RE5-12

12 Vfor electric vehiclesemergency power supply

OverviewDesigned as an evolution of the NP family, the Yuasa RE range provides VRLA (AGM) lead‑acid batteries with improved service classification (EUROBAT General Use: 6–9 years) and a Yuasa design life up to 10 years at 20 °C. The RE range retains the NP series characteristics such as deep‑discharge recovery, an electrolyte suspension system and gas recombination technology, while offering higher energy density and flexible installation options.

Key features

• Versatile use: suitable for standby (float) and light cyclic applications.
• Yuasa design life up to 10 years; EUROBAT General Use classification 6–9 years.
• Excellent recovery after deep discharge.
• AGM microporous glass‑fibre separator with electrolyte suspension for optimized electrolyte distribution.
• Sealed construction preventing electrolyte leakage; low maintenance (regular testing and inspection recommended).
• Efficient gas recombination technology (~99% recombination under normal use).
• Valve regulated design with low‑pressure venting for safety under overcharge conditions.
• Can be installed in any orientation except continuous inverted operation.
• Lead‑calcium grids for higher energy density and sustained output.
• Low self‑discharge for long storage periods.
• Optional flame‑retardant cases available to UL94:V0.

Applications

• Uninterruptible Power Supply systems (UPS).
• Fire and security systems.
• Emergency lighting.
