C&D Dynasty UPS12-100MR Battery - 12V 26 Ah High Rate Max AGM

This part is retired by C&D. C&D names the UPS12-105PLP Pure Lead Plus as the replacement; ask a specialist to price the PLP. We supply the UPS12-100MR while inventory holds.
Two numbers describe the 12V UPS12-100MR and they answer different questions: 26 Ah at the 20-hour rate to 1.75 volts per cell at 25°C, and 90.9 watts per cell at the 15-minute rate to 1.67 VPC. A UPS sizing table asks for the second. This is the smallest block in C&D's High Rate Max battery line, and at 21 lbs in a 6.54 by 5.17 inch case it goes into small rack cabinets and dispatch-room strings where the shelf depth is fixed and the ride-through is counted in minutes.

Warranty

Warranty. C&D's term on the UPS High Rate Max series is 3 years at 25°C (77°F), under Form 41-9027. Design life is a separate figure: 10 years at 25°C is C&D's published design life for the series. Terms are confirmed in writing with your quote.

The Small End of the High Rate Max Line

26 Ah at the 20-hour rate
To 1.75 volts per cell at 25°C (77°F). This is the figure to set against another maker's amp-hour block, and the one that sizes a long low-current drain.
90.9 watts per cell at 15 minutes
To 1.67 VPC at 77°F. C&D publishes ten runtime columns for this block, from 172 watts per cell at 5 minutes down to 24.6 at 90 minutes.
21 lbs on a 6.54 inch case
6.54 by 5.17 inches, 6.37 inches to the case top and 6.86 inches over the terminals. One technician places it without a lift.
  • Top terminal, 10-32 UNF - torqued to 40 in-lbs (4.5 N-m) on C&D's data table, against 1,750 amps of short-circuit current at 0.1 second.
  • UL-recognized component - built to comply with UL1778, UL 924, UL 1989 and UL 94 V-2, and with BS6290-4 and IEC-896-2.
  • Flame-arresting vent in every cell - a patented UL-recognized valve per cell, inside a thermally welded case-to-cover bond that eliminates leakage.
  • AGM recombination up to 99% - absorbent glass mat construction, so the block takes no water over its service life.
  • Float charge voltage 13.65 ± 0.15 VDC - the average per 12V unit that the rectifier gets set against.

Where This Battery Is Used

  • Small rack UPS cabinets - four blocks for 48V or ten for 120V, on a shelf cut too shallow for the 300MR class.
  • Emergency 911 response centers - console and radio power held up long enough for the generator to pick up.
  • Testing laboratories - instrument racks where an unplanned shutdown costs a whole run.

Ordering and Freight

Minimum order is 4 units. At 21 lbs each a string ships freight pre-paid by LTL to commercial addresses; a residential or limited-access delivery adds $100, which is the liftgate and access charge the carrier bills us. Send the quantity, your delivery ZIP and your requested-by date, and a specialist returns a written quote with volume pricing in 24 to 48 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many UPS12-100MR blocks make a 48V string?

Four. Each unit is a nominal 12V built from six cells, so four in series give 48V, ten give 120V and twenty give 240V. C&D's own installation guide puts typical system voltages between 12 and 480 VDC, with 72 to 480 VDC the usual data center UPS range. Tell a specialist the string voltage and the runtime you need and the block count comes off the published power table rather than an estimate.

What torque do the 10-32 UNF terminals take?

40 in-lbs (4.5 N-m), from C&D's additional-data table for this model. Under-torque shows up first as a rising ohmic reading at the connection and only later as heat. Before the cables go on, brush the lead contact faces with a brass bristle brush and coat them with an antioxidant grease such as NO-OX-ID or NCP-2, which is what C&D's rack installation guide calls for.

Can the UPS12-100MR be mounted on its side?

Yes. C&D states the High Rate Max blocks can be operated in any orientation, and recommends upright, side or end mounting. Leave half an inch between units on the shelf so the interunit cables line up with the adjacent terminals and air can move between the cases. In a sealed enclosure, confirm the cabinet and the room are ventilated.

How long can a UPS12-100MR sit before it needs a charge?

Up to six months at 77°F (25°C) before a freshening charge is required. Stored warmer than that, it needs recharging sooner. C&D covers the detail in brochure 41-7272 on self-discharge and inventory control, and the installation guide sets the freshening charge at 2.4 volts per cell average for 24 hours. If the batteries have been on a shelf for a while, say so on the quote request and a specialist notes the date code.

Next rating up: C&D UPS12-150MR34.6 Ah and 148 watts per cell at 15 minutes, in a case 1.22 inches longer and 6.3 lbs heavier.
