Saft LSH 20-150 Lithium Battery – High Temp D-Size Cell

Saft LSH 20-150 Lithium Battery is a high-performance primary lithium cell specifically engineered for applications requiring high pulse currents in extreme temperature environments. Built with a robust spiral construction, this D-size cell delivers reliable energy where standard batteries fail.

Description

Industrial operations in harsh environments demand a power source that combines high energy density with exceptional ruggedness. The Saft LSH 20-150 Lithium Battery is part of the LSH range, which distinguishes itself from standard bobbin cells through its unique spiral electrode construction. This design maximizes the surface area within the cell, enabling it to deliver the high current pulses required by modern telemetry and transmission devices.

Optimized for High Temperatures While standard lithium cells perform well in moderate conditions, the LSH 20-150 is formulated to operate in the very high temperatures found in challenging industrial sectors. It maintains its structural integrity and electrical performance in environments that would degrade lesser batteries, ensuring continuous data acquisition and system safety in critical operations like drilling and pipeline inspection.

Safety and Longevity Despite its high power output, this battery maintains the safety features Saft is known for. It includes a non-flammable electrolyte and a hermetically sealed stainless steel container to prevent leakage and corrosion. With a low self-discharge rate, the Saft LSH 20-150 Lithium Battery ensures a long shelf life and extended service intervals, reducing the frequency of costly maintenance trips to remote or hazardous locations.
