TEL-HT High Temperature Pure Lead AGM Battery

TEL High Temperature Series batteries provide standby power to critical applications in the telecommunications industry. For telecom applications in extreme conditions, C&D Technologies’ TEL-HT batteries are the longest-lasting high-performance VRLA battery in our Telecom lineup. The TEL-HT is a high temp telecom battery built for durability and service life. By deferring replacements and reducing operating expenses, TEL-HT telecom batteries can save on costs.

Battery Quick Facts

  • Battery type: VRLA Pure Lead AGM (VRLA)
  • Capacity: 31 - 195 Amp-Hours
  • Design Life: 12+ Years
  • Operating Environments: Indoor, Outdoor Controlled, Outdoor Uncontrolled
  • Certifications & Compliances: Meets NEBS™ GR63 CORE, GR4228/SR4228 Telcordia, UL94-V0 Flame retardant Case and Cover, UL1989 Compliant
  • Industries: Telecom, Railway & Railroad

Features & Benefits

Reliability in all environments

  • Simplify your network design and save money on cooling costs regardless of the region or conditions. Our engineers designed TEL-HT to operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°F to 160°F (-40°C to 71°C).

Longest service life

  • We designed TEL High Temperature for quality, battery service life, and value. Our patented Pure Lead (MSE) technology and optimized grid alloys minimize corrosion and provide long-lasting performance. This longevity can lead to approximately 20% in cost savings.* C&D backs up TEL-HT high temp AGM batteries with an industry-leading warranty.**

Supports sustainability

  • Low float currents allow TEL-HT batteries to operate at higher temperatures for longer, which lowers energy demand. They are 98% recyclable and manufactured with up to 80% recycled materials. C&D creates high quality products and process improvements to minimize our environmental footprint.

Maintenance efficiency

  • True Front Access terminals minimize failure points and save maintenance time, without sacrificing reliability. AGM technology eliminates periodic water maintenance. The TEL-HT's rugged polypropylene case protects all internal battery components.

Features

  • 12+ year design life
  • 12-volt monobloc battery
  • Technology: Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) battery
  • Available in top terminal and patented True Front Access terminal designs
  • TEL High Temp uses MSE Pure Lead Technology for ultra-low float current, extending the life of the battery
  • AGM technology is non-hazardous for easy shipping and transportation
  • Extended battery service life in elevated temperature applications
  • Store TEL-HT batteries for up to 2 years at 77⁰F (25°C)
  • C&D Ohmic Ring™ provides most reliable and easy maintenance readings

Mapping the Capacity–Conductance Boundary in VRLA Lead-Acid Batteries

This article distills a technical study into a practical, plain-English guide on how **electrolyte conductance** and **deliverable capacity** relate inside **VRLA (valve-regulated lead-acid)** batteries. By modeling the **electrolyte** (acid + water) and the **plates** (active materials) separately—and then combining their constraints—we obtain **upper and lower bounds** that define where a battery’s **normalized conductance** \(G_d/G_n\) and **normalized capacity** \(Ah_d/Ah_n\) can realistically sit. The result helps field engineers interpret conductance readings, separate **undercharge/sulfation** from **electrolyte dry-out**, and decide when capacity testing or replacement is justified.

Battery Health Testing with Impedance & Conductance: A Clear, Practical Guide

Impedance and conductance tests provide a fast, non-destructive way to assess battery health—especially for lead-acid and VRLA cells—without doing a full discharge test. This article explains what these tests measure, why baseline values matter more than one-off readings, and how to build a simple trending program that reliably flags aging cells before they fail.
