EnerSys DataSafe 12HX205-FR Battery - 12V 43Ah High Rate VRLA

Small UPS cabinets and alarm panels get sized by what fits, then by what it can deliver. The DataSafe 12HX205-FR is the compact end of the HX line: 43 amp hours in an 8.9 inch case, rated at 205 watts per cell over a 15-minute discharge. It carries the same high-rate electrochemistry and the same flame-retardant construction as its larger siblings, in a footprint that drops into equipment where the big units will not go. Cataloged as 12HX205 and as a Data Safe HX battery, if that is the spelling you searched.

Design Life and Warranty

Warranty. EnerSys warrants this model for 4 years in float service. Design life is a separate figure: 10 years on the DataSafe HX line. Terms are confirmed in writing with your quote.

Small Case, High Rate

Rated in watts per cell
205 W per cell at the 15-minute rate is the number a UPS designer works from. Amp-hour ratings alone will mislead you on a short, hard discharge.
Accepts a fast recharge
The plate design takes high current on recovery, so the string is back to full readiness sooner after an event rather than sitting partly charged.
43 lbs, mounts any way up
One person can place it, and horizontal, vertical or sideways mounting all hold full spec, which decides a lot of retrofits.
  • Constant-power output at 1.67 VPC: 412 W at 5 min, 274 W at 10 min, 205 W at 15 min, 119 W at 30 min, 67 W at 60 min - read the duration you need rather than assuming from capacity.
  • Ships at 100% capacity - no formation charging before it goes into service.
  • UL Listed under file MH12544, UL94 flame-retardant case to UL1778, IATA approved, built in ISO 9001 facilities.

Where This Battery Is Used

  • Rack and cabinet UPS - server room and network closet units too small for a 119Ah cell.
  • Telecom and cell site cabinets - switching gear and remote terminals on float.
  • Security and access control - alarm panels, surveillance and door controllers that must ride through an outage.
  • Emergency lighting - egress and fire-safety systems on a code-driven inspection cycle.
Need more runtime in the same series? The 12HX505-FR → 119Ah and 506 watts per cell against this unit's 43Ah and 205 W, on the same HX chemistry, warranty and certifications. Worth comparing if your cabinet has the room.

Ordering and Freight

Minimum order is 4 units. These ship by LTL freight and the four-unit minimum keeps the per-unit freight reasonable. Send the quantity, your delivery ZIP and your requested-by date and a specialist returns a written quote in 24 to 48 hours. If you are replacing an unknown battery, send a photo of the label and the tray dimensions and we will confirm the cross before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 12HX205 the same battery as the 12HX205-FR?

Yes. The FR suffix denotes the flame-retardant case and is how EnerSys catalogs the unit. Parts lists write it both ways, and Data Safe appears as one word and two. They all refer to this battery.

Why does the warranty say 4 years when the design life is 10?

Design life is EnerSys's engineering estimate under good float conditions. The warranty is the period they will replace a failed unit. Both are real numbers and they are not the same thing, which matters because the ten-year figure gets published as a warranty term more often than it should.

Will it fit where my old battery was?

Check three things against your tray: 12V nominal, M6 threaded terminals, and the 8.9 x 5.5 x 8.1 inch footprint. Those are what have to match. Send us a photo of the old label and we will confirm rather than let you find out on install day.

How long can it sit before installation?

Up to 6 months at 77°F before a freshening charge is needed, and less if stored warmer. It arrives at full capacity, so no formation charge is required before service.
