C&D Dynasty UPS12-605PLP Battery - 12V 148 Ah Pure Lead Plus AGM

When the rack count is fixed, the cabinet cannot grow and the kilowatts have to come out of the same 345 by 173 mm footprint, the UPS12-605PLP is the block a designer reaches for: the highest-rated 12V top-terminal unit in C&D's Pure Lead Plus range and the named successor to the retired UPS12-600MR, at 148 Ah at the 20-hour rate to 1.75 volts per cell at 25°C and 602.9 watts per cell at the 15-minute rate to 1.67 VPC. The 495PLP and the 545PLP share that footprint with it. Nothing above it in the series is a top-post battery; the larger PLPF models move to a front-terminal case.

Warranty

Warranty. C&D's term on the Pure Lead Plus series is 5 years at 30°C (86°F), under C&D's Pure Lead Plus limited warranty (2021). Design life is a separate figure: C&D publishes a 12+ year design life at 25°C (77°F) for the series. Terms are confirmed in writing with your quote.

The Top of the Top-Terminal Range

3,617 watts from one block
602.9 watts per cell at fifteen minutes to 1.67 VPC at 77°F, across six cells. To a 1.75 end point the figure is 556.9 per cell.
148 Ah at the 20-hour rate
7.4 amps for twenty hours to 1.75 volts per cell at 25°C, with 139 Ah at the 8-hour rate on the same end point.
113 lbs on a 345 mm case
51.2 kg, the heaviest top-terminal unit C&D lists in the series; only the front-access PLPF blocks run heavier. Six pounds over the 545PLP and ten over the 495PLP, on an identical case.
  • Case and cover bonded by thermal weld - flame retardant polypropylene joined without a mechanical seam at the joint line.
  • Patented flame-arresting vents - one UL-recognized valve in each of the six cells, which is what lets the block sit in a closed cabinet.
  • Short-circuit current 5,000 amps - at 0.1 second, the same figure C&D publishes for the 495PLP and the 545PLP on this case.
  • 104.8 amps for one hour - to 1.75 volts per cell at 77°F on C&D's constant-current table, with 26.7 amps holding for five hours.
  • Top terminal with a threaded insert - a 1/4-20 UNC bolt at 110 in-lbs (12.4 N-m), landing on the cover face and not on a front plate.

Where This Battery Is Used

  • Maximum kilowatts per cabinet - UPS rooms where the rack count is set and the rating has to come out of the block instead.
  • Financial data processing - settlement and clearing systems that cannot take an unplanned stop at any hour.
  • Airport and air traffic support - navigation aids and terminal systems held on standby power.

Ordering and Freight

Minimum order is 4 units. At 113 lbs a block these go out freight pre-paid by LTL to a commercial address; 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

Where does the UPS12-605PLP table start and finish?

At one minute it delivers 1,395.5 watts per cell to 1.67 volts per cell at 77°F, which is 8,373 watts from a single block. At sixty minutes it is down to 212.1 watts per cell, or 1,272.6 per block. Between those ends C&D publishes eleven durations at five end points, so a runtime of four minutes or forty-five reads straight off the sheet with no interpolation needed.

Does the extra rating buy reserve time or short-duration power?

Short-duration power, mostly. Against the 545PLP on the same case the 605PLP adds 2 Ah at the 20-hour rate, which is barely a change, but 60.9 watts per cell at fifteen minutes, which is roughly eleven percent. The gap widens further down the short columns: 968.8 watts per cell at five minutes against 920.1 on the 545PLP. A string sized in kilowatts for a short ride-through gains from the 605PLP; a string sized in amp-hours over hours gains almost nothing.

Can a UPS12-605PLP string be sized on the 1.60 volt end point?

C&D publishes the column, so yes, and the numbers are higher: 629.8 watts per cell at fifteen minutes against 602.9 at 1.67 and 556.9 at 1.75. The cost is depth. A lower end point takes more out of the battery on every event, and a plant that regularly discharges to 1.60 VPC is running a different duty cycle from one that stops at 1.75. Size to the end point your inverter opens at, which is a setting on the UPS rather than a choice made on the battery sheet.

Does C&D make a Pure Lead Plus block above this rating?

Yes, but not with top posts. The UPS12-675PLPF, UPS12-705PLPF and UPS12-1005PLPF sit above the 605PLP in the same series, all in C&D's True Front Access format on a 551 mm deep case, 126 mm wide on the first two and 156 mm on the largest. The TFA design runs the connection from the plates straight to the terminals on the face, which is a different rack layout entirely. Those are not pages of ours, so ask a specialist to price a PLPF if the rating you need is above 148 Ah.
