Yuasa 12V 36Ah Cyclic Industrial VRLA Battery, M5 Threaded Terminals REC36-12I
About this product
The Yuasa REC36-12I is a 12V 36Ah VRLA battery for cyclic use, meaning equipment that regularly runs its battery down and recharges it. VRLA stands for valve regulated lead acid. It suits installers and owners working with larger loads. It measures 196 x 130 x 158 mm and has M5 threaded terminals.
Key features
- Built for repeated cycling – heavy duty lead calcium grids for superior cyclic life
- Cycle life to plan around – 300 at 100% DOD (depth of discharge) and 1400 at 25% DOD, down to 80% capacity
- No free acid – Absorbed Glass Mat construction
- Recovers well – excellent recovery from deep discharge
- Secure bolted connections – M5 (F) threaded terminals
- Fits most ways round – any orientation except permanently inverted
- Strong short bursts – maximum discharge current 360 A for 1 second and 140 A for 1 minute
For installers
- Power: 12 V nominal. Float charge 13.65 V (±1%) and cyclic or boost charge 14.52 V (±3%) per block at 20°C, with a 9 A charge current limit.
- Mounting: 196 (±2) x 130 (±2) mm, 158 (±3) mm high, 169 (±3) mm over the terminals, 11.2 kg. Any orientation except permanently inverted.
- Cabling: threaded terminal M5 (F), torque 2-3Nm.
- Compatibility: check the charger and the equipment's own battery and charging figures against these.
- Standards: case ABS (UL94:HB). Third party certifications: ISO9001 - Quality Management Systems and UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES Inc.
Frequently asked questions
What size is this battery?
196 (±2) mm long, 130 (±2) mm wide and 158 (±3) mm high, 169 (±3) mm over the terminals. It has a mass of 11.2 kg.
How many cycles does it last?
It depends on the depth of discharge. It gives 300 at 100% DOD, 500 at 75%, 600 at 50% and 1400 at 25%, each down to 80% capacity.
What charge voltage does it need?
13.65 V (±1%) per block on float and 14.52 V (±3%) per block for cyclic or boost charging, both at 20°C.
What are the terminals?
M5 female threaded terminals, so the connection is made with a bolt. The torque is 2-3Nm.
Can it go in a sealed box?
No. VRLA batteries release hydrogen gas which can form explosive mixtures in the air, so do not place it inside a sealed container.
Is this the flame retardant version?
No. This one has a standard ABS (UL94:HB) case. An FR version at UL94:V0 is also made.
