Power Storage 12GX100F Pure Lead Front Access Telecom Battery
Power Storage 12GX100F Pure Lead Front Access Telecom Battery
Power Storage Solutions 12GX100F Battery - 12V 100 Ah Pure Lead Front Access AGM
Warranty
The Outside Plant Workhorse Size
- Float 2.27 volts per cell - plus or minus 0.02 V at 77°F, compensated at -3 mV per cell per degree C, which is the setting a rectifier plant runs day to day.
- Charge current capped at 0.3C - the maximum Power Storage Solutions publishes, so a plant recharging a deeply discharged string has a ceiling to work to.
- CE and UL certified, with IEC 60896 - two separate entries in the safety standards and compliances block on the 12GX100F sheet.
- Charge window -4°F to 129°F - with 77 ±5°F (25 ±3°C) named as the nominal operating range for the series.
- Front terminal face - connections, voltage checks and ohmic readings all happen from the aisle, which is what a front-access cabinet is built around.

Where This Battery Is Used
- Outside plant cabinets - roadside and pad-mount enclosures where the string sits behind a rectifier and gets serviced from the front.
- Broadband and wireless nodes - node and small cell power with a reserve target counted in hours.
- Equipment room 48 volt strings - four blocks on a shelf feeding transmission and switching gear through a utility interruption.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 364.4 watts per cell rating on the 12GX100F describe?
A fifteen-minute constant-power discharge to 1.67 volts per cell at 77°F. Power Storage Solutions prints it as the nominal rate on the front of the sheet, which puts a watts figure and an amp-hour figure side by side on the same product. Use the watts columns when the load is specified in kW and the runtime in minutes, and the amp-hour columns when the load is a steady plant current over hours. Mixing the two is how a string ends up two blocks short.
What charge current will a 12GX100F accept?
0.3C is the published maximum, which works out to 30 amps on a 100 Ah block. Most rectifier plants current-limit well below that, so the charger sets the practical recharge time before the battery does. Float sits at 2.27 volts per cell with temperature compensation at -3 mV per cell per degree C, and equalization runs 2.35 to 2.40 volts per cell when the plant supports it.
Will a 12GX100F drop into a shelf cut for a 12GX40F?
No. The 100F is 16.0 inches deep against 11.8, 11.3 inches tall against 7.24, and 4.25 inches wide against 3.82, at 67.9 lbs against 27.6. Nothing about that swap is dimensional. Going the other way, a shelf built for the 100F has the depth for a 40F but leaves the terminal face sitting back from where the cabling expects it, so check the lead lengths before ordering either way.
What load will a 12GX100F hold for three hours?
27.0 amps to 1.75 volts per cell at 77°F, or 54.1 watts per cell on the power table. Four blocks in a 48 volt string therefore carry a 27 amp plant load for three hours. At one hour the same string carries 65.8 amps. Send the load and the hours the site standard requires and a specialist interpolates between the published columns.
