Deka Unigy 12AVR100ET Battery | 12V Front Access Telecom
Deka Unigy 12AVR100ET Battery | 12V Front Access Telecom
Deka Unigy 12AVR100ET Battery - 12V 96Ah Front Access Telecom AGM
Design Life and Warranty
Built for String Consistency
- Meets or exceeds IEEE 485 and Telcordia capacity requirements - the two specs a telecom or utility submittal will ask for by name.
- Buss bars ship with the batteries - series connection hardware is in the box, not a separate line item to chase.
- HTS code 8507.20 - on the page because import and export paperwork asks for it and finding it usually means a phone call.

Where This Battery Is Used
- Central offices and outside plant - front-terminal strings in 19-inch and 23-inch relay racks.
- UPS banks - float duty behind data center and network operations equipment.
- Emergency and egress power - inspected systems where the submittal specifies IEEE 485.
- Industrial process control - plant floors where an unplanned stop costs more than the string.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does heat cost on the 12AVR100ET warranty?
East Penn works in proportional life against a 77°F baseline: roughly 80% at 81°F, 60% at 87°F, and 50% at 90°F. A cabinet holding 90°F is spending its warranty at about twice the clock rate of one at 77°F. Give us the cabinet temperature with your quote request and we will tell you what the term is worth at your site rather than at the lab.
Why is the design life 10 years but the warranty 4?
Design life is East Penn's engineering estimate under ideal float conditions. The warranty is the period they will replace a failed unit. Both numbers are real and they are not the same thing, which matters because a 10-year figure has been published as a warranty in this category more than once. If a seller quotes you ten years of free replacement on a battery like this, ask to see the form.
Can I mix a 12AVR100ET into an existing string?
On a young string with a documented single-unit failure, yes. On a string more than a couple of years into service, replace the set. A fresh 96Ah cell in an aged bank gets held to the weakest unit's capacity, so you pay for new and get old.
What is the difference between the 12AVR100 and the 12AVR100ET?
The ET is the front-access version, and that terminal type is also what puts it in a different warranty tier than the top-terminal 12AVR100. If your submittal or your existing rack calls for one specifically, check the label before ordering, or send us a photo.
Why is there a four-unit minimum order?
Freight economics on a 75-pound battery, plus these strings are almost always built in fours or multiples. If you need an odd count, call us and we will work out what makes sense.
