Frequently Asked Questions about Sealed Lead Acid Batteries
Can I select a sealed lead acid battery with a different capacity?
When selecting a replacement, the voltage and dimensions should match your original battery. The capacity doesn't need to be exact. For example, many UPS units use our 12 Volt, 7 Ah battery (Item # SLA-12V7-F2), and these can be as high as 7.6 Ah in capacity. Or, even our 12 Volt, 9 Ah battery (Item # SLA-12V9-F2) can be used with these units, as both batteries are the same size and voltage.
Please know that the battery size may change with a higher capacity. Always make sure the voltage matches your original battery and measure your original battery to ensure that it will fit the area the battery will be installed.
What charger should I use for my SLA battery?
Some applications will charge the SLA battery automatically, like alarm or backup systems. You shouldn't need to take the battery out and put it on a charger.
Generally you will want a charger that is ~10% of the capacity rating of the battery (at a 20hr rate).
For example, if you wanted to charge a 12 volt, 20 Ah battery, you would select a 12 volt charger with a 2 amp charging output (20 x 0.10 = 2).
