C&D UPS12-495PLP Pure Lead Plus Battery
C&D UPS12-495PLP Pure Lead Plus Battery
C&D Dynasty UPS12-495PLP Battery - 12V 140 Ah Pure Lead Plus AGM
Warranty
What Gets This Block Through Procurement
- UL 1973 for stationary energy storage - the standard that covers batteries in stationary and auxiliary power applications, listed by C&D for the whole Pure Lead Plus range.
- Charge range with temperature compensation - -10°F (-23°C) to +122°F (+50°C), provided the charger compensates for temperature across that band.
- 5,000 amps short-circuit current - at 0.1 second, with the interunit connector voltage drop excluded from C&D's published ratings.
- Constant power published from one minute - 1,128.6 watts per cell at 1 minute to 1.67 VPC, so a very short ride-through is read off the sheet.
- Sealed and non-spillable - a valve regulated AGM block with a patented UL-recognized flame-arresting vent in each of the six cells.

Where This Battery Is Used
- Federal and defense facilities - installations where procurement checks trade compliance before the purchase order is cut.
- Communications shelters - standby plant that has to work across a wide ambient range, with no conditioned room behind it.
- Hospitals and research facilities - standby strings that get a documented capacity test on a published interval.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the UPS12-495PLP TAA compliant?
C&D lists TAA compliance for the Pure Lead Plus series on its published datasheet, and the 495PLP is part of that series. Read it as a trade classification and not a performance rating: it addresses where the product comes from, not how the battery behaves. If your solicitation cites a specific clause, send it with the quote request so the compliance wording can be checked against C&D's published statement before anything is ordered.
The 495PLP, 545PLP and 605PLP look identical. How do I tell them apart?
By the label and by the weight. All three sit on the same 345 by 173 mm case at 278 mm over the terminals, because C&D builds them on one jar and changes what goes inside it. The 495PLP is 103 lbs at 140 Ah and 492.0 watts per cell, the 545PLP is 107 lbs at 146 Ah and 542.0 watts, the 605PLP is 113 lbs at 148 Ah and 602.9 watts. Physically interchangeable, electrically not, so match the rating your string was sized on; the case will not tell you.
What temperature range can a UPS12-495PLP be charged across?
-10°F (-23°C) to +122°F (+50°C), and only with temperature compensation in the charger. Discharge is the wider window at -40°F to +140°F. C&D's nominal room band is narrower than either, and a string held near the middle of it ages the way the published figures assume. Outside a conditioned room, send the expected ambient profile with the quote request.
How long will a UPS12-495PLP hold a 25 amp load?
A shade under five hours. C&D's constant-current table gives 24.7 amps for five hours to 1.75 volts per cell at 77°F, so a steady 25 amp draw lands just inside that row. At 16.3 amps the block runs eight hours and at 7.0 amps it runs twenty. For loads between the published points a specialist interpolates from C&D's published data.
