SAFT Battery TLX+100

SAFT Battery – TLX+ 100

Tel.X-Plus nickel batteries optimized for 4G and 5G telecom applications

Compact, lightweight, long-lasting and reliable in extreme temperatures, Saft Tel.X-Plus Ni-Cd battery provide vital back-up power for the new generation of wireless networks. Tel.X-Plus is a compact maintenance-free nickel battery solution for on-grid telecom networks. Saft’s Tel.X-Plus nickel batteries, for wireless and wireline backup power, are particularly well adapted to on-grid applications in hot climates and is ideal for telecom backup for use in BTC and BSC.

Tel.X-Plus nickel battery solution is compatible with all existing and new telecom equipment, making it a perfect direct replacement for VRLA batteries where space is limited and there is limited capacity. Maintenance-free and easy to install, Tel.X-Plus is high-energy density, compact and 30 % lighter than a conventional lead-acid battery. It can be delivered in a standard rack at either 48V or 24V, with the option of a rack system suitable for use in level-4 seismic zones.

Tel.X-Plus Ni-Cd battery offers the same reliability, same DNA as the trusted Tel.X; maintenance-free, form factor, and TCO.  Added features/benefits:

• 174 W/cell @ 1hr rate (down to 1.10 VDC/cell) -vs. 110 W/cell with standard Tel.X
• High power -M type vs. L energy Type for standard Tel.X-
• Improved low temperature performances

Features & Benefits

• Simple and direct replacement of VRLA batteries for fast installation
• Outstanding energy density of up to 100 Wh/l
• Exceptionally long service life and reliability cuts down on operating and maintenance costs

Technical Specifications

• Proven Saft Ni-Cd battery technology robustness, no sudden death
• Operates in temperatures from -20°C (-4°F) to +50°C (+122°F) (tolerates -50°C (-58°F)  to +70°C (+158°F)  )
• Simple modular design easy-to-fit, well adapted to 19” and 23” racks
• Service life: 20 years at +20°C (+68°F), 14 years at + 40°C (+104°F)

The Tel.X-Plus Ni-Cd battery delivers the optimum combination of high-energy performance and reliability. The technology-proven long life remains compact and modular, offering a maintenance-free design that ensures the lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Thanks to its outstanding energy density of up to 100Wh/l, Tel.X-Plus is the perfect direct replacement for VRLA lead-acid batteries in telecom back-up applications where limited space is available. Tel.X-Plus
reduces battery weight by 30% in the same footprint.

Tel.X-Plus has been redesigned to offer refined performance. The renowned, robust Ni-Cd construction now offers high discharge rates at both low and high
temperatures without compromising service life. Tel.XPlus’s life is less impacted by high temperatures when compared to a VRLA lead-acid battery. At +25°C
(+77°F), the lifetime is 20 years. At +35°C (+95°F), the lifetime is 16 years; a reduction of 20% for a Ni-Cd battery compared to a reduction of 50% for VRLA.
