Active product line

48V LiFePO4 lithium batteries for telecom

This is the second product line and it behaves nothing like the rectifier business. Here the buyer usually has a healthy plant and a dying VRLA string, and the decision is a sizing exercise: how much real autonomy the site needs, and whether the existing rectifier shelf can charge lithium correctly.

Availability & lifecycle

Active, competitive and well supplied. The differentiator is not sourcing, it is sizing the bank correctly and confirming the charging profile before anyone ships anything.

Models we are asked for

Part number	Model	Indicative specification

Specifications are indicative and published by the manufacturer. Availability, exact revision and lead time are confirmed in the written quotation.

Where it is used

VRLA replacement in existing 48V plants
Cellular tower and repeater backup
Fiber node and ISP cabinet autonomy
Sites with weight, footprint or temperature constraints

What to send us

The site load in amps or kW, the autonomy you actually need in hours, the rectifier or plant model that will charge the bank, and the ambient temperature range. Those four things determine the answer; the part number does not.

Compatibility notes

Lithium is not always the right call. If a site is cool, rarely cycles and has space, a like-for-like VRLA replacement can be the cheaper answer over the asset life — and we will tell you when that is the case.

Certification & transport

Transport and safety documentation matters on every lithium shipment: UN38.3 for transport, IEC 62619 for industrial cells, plus MSDS. We confirm which certificates come with a given product before you order.

Common questions about this family

Can my existing rectifier charge a LiFePO4 bank correctly?

That is the question to answer before buying anything. Lithium needs a charging profile and voltage window that not every legacy 48V plant can deliver, and the controller has to be able to talk to the BMS or at least not fight it. Send the rectifier or plant model along with the load and we will tell you whether it works as-is.

How much autonomy do I actually need?

It is set by four things: the site load in amps or kW, the hours of autonomy the site genuinely requires, the charging capability of the plant, and the ambient temperature range. Send those four and you get a useful answer; send the part number of your old VRLA and you get a guess.
