FAQS 4

What is the design life of a lead acid battery?

Europe took a different tack. The Eurobat Guide for the Specification of Valve Regulated Lead-Acid Stationary Cells and Batteries defines design life as follows: “The design life is the estimated life determined under laboratory conditions, and is quoted at 20°C using the manufacturer’s recommended float voltage conditions.” 6

What is a battery design life?

Battery manufacturers design a battery to do certain things within a given set of parameters. This design life is generally predicated on certain conditions that may be generic to the specific application.

How do I choose a lead-acid battery?

Understanding core technical parameters is critical when selecting lead-acid batteries (especially gel or lead-carbon types). This guide breaks down rated voltage, max charge/discharge currents, depth of discharge (DOD), cycle life, and power calculations to help you optimize battery lifespan and system design. 1. Rated Voltage

How long does a lead-acid battery last?

general rule of thumb for a vented lead-acid battery is that the battery life is halved for every 15°F (8.3°C) above 77°F (25°C). Thus, a battery rated for 5 years of operation under ideal conditions at 77°F (25°C) might only last 2.5 years at 95°F (35°C).
