FT12-150

Specification

(12V150Ah)

FT (Front Terminal) Series is specially designed for telecom use with 10+
years design life in float service. By adopting a new AGM separator and
centralised venting system, the battery can be installed in any position
while maintaining high relaibility. The dimensions of the FT series is
designed for 19" and 23" cabinet installation. It is suitable for UPS/EPS
applications.
