Saft LSH 20 Lithium Battery – High Power 3.6V D-Cell

Saft LSH 20 Lithium Battery is a high-performance primary lithium cell specifically engineered for applications requiring high currents and rapid pulse discharges. Unlike standard bobbin cells, this D-size battery utilizes a robust spiral electrode construction, enabling it to deliver exceptional power output without compromising reliability.

Description

Industrial applications often require more than just energy capacity; they demand immediate power availability. The Saft LSH 20 Lithium Battery answers this need through its specialized internal design. While standard lithium cells prioritize capacity, the LSH series features a spiral construction that significantly increases the electrode surface area. This allows the battery to sustain high continuous currents and deliver strong pulses up to 4 A, making it ideal for devices with transmitters or motors.

Rugged and Reliable Built to withstand harsh conditions, the LSH 20 is housed in a stainless steel container with hermetic glass-to-metal sealing. This construction ensures resistance to corrosion and prevents leakage, even in humid or corrosive atmospheres. The cell is also designed with a non-flammable electrolyte and integrated safety vents, providing peace of mind for installation in sensitive areas.

Long-Term Performance Despite its high power capability, the LSH 20 maintains a low self-discharge rate. This characteristic ensures a long shelf life and extended operational time, making it a cost-effective solution for remote or hard-to-access installations where battery replacement is expensive and logistical.
