What is the life of UPS batteries?

Battery Lifespan and Maintenance for UPS Systems

The lifespan of UPS batteries can vary depending on their size and usage. Typically, small to medium UPS batteries have a design life of 4-5 years, although this can be influenced by factors such as the number and depth of discharges and environmental conditions, including temperature.

In contrast, larger UPS systems commonly utilise batteries with an 8-10 year design life, providing longer-lasting performance and reliability.

To ensure the continued functionality of UPS batteries, we recommend regular checks, tests, and discharges. Periodic maintenance helps identify any potential issues and ensures that the batteries are operating correctly. This proactive approach is crucial for maintaining optimal battery performance and safeguarding uninterrupted power supply during critical situations.

At Cymru Wales Power Protection, we understand the importance of battery reliability and offer comprehensive battery maintenance services. Our team can assist you with battery checks, testing, and necessary replacements to ensure that your UPS system operates efficiently and reliably throughout its lifespan.
