New lead-acid family

Yuasa Battery has announced a new addition to its SWL family of industrial valve regulated lead-acid (VRLA) batteries with the launch of the SWL2300FR model.

The new SWL2300FR follows the same increased performance profile as the other batteries in the SWL range. This typically gives 40% extra discharge capacity over and above a standard NPL type.

The 12V SWL 2300FR features a nominal capacity of 80Ah at 20°C to 10.5V. Standby life expectancy is 10 years at 2.275V/cell float charge at 20°C. SWL2300FR batteries feature a UL94V0 flame retardant case material as standard (Oxygen index 30) and can be used in any orientation excluding continuous use in the inverted position. The new model complies with BS6290 Part 4 (1997) and IEC 60896-21 +22. Case dimensions are 261 (l) x 168 (w) x 225mm (h) with mass of 27kg.

Yuasa's new SWL2300FR batteries are available from a wide range of distributors in the UK.
