PS1.2-12 12V 1.2AH made in malaysia

Description

The PS1.2-12 (12V 1.2Ah) is a compact, valve-regulated, maintenance-free Sealed Lead-Acid (SLA) battery utilizing AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology. While “PS1.2-12” is a common industry model number used by many manufacturers (often associated with brands like Power Kingdom or MSB), batteries of this specification are indeed manufactured in Malaysia and widely distributed in regional markets, including Egypt.

Technical Specifications

• Nominal Voltage: 12V

• Nominal Capacity: 1.2Ah (1200mAh)

• Technology: VRLA / AGM (Spill-proof and maintenance-free)

• Typical Dimensions: Approximately 97mm x 43mm x 52mm (excluding terminals).

• Terminal Type: Typically F1 (0.187″ / 4.75mm) quick-disconnect spade terminals.

• Approximate Weight: ~0.6kg

Key Features

• Maintenance-Free: The sealed design eliminates the need for water replenishment.

• Versatile Mounting: Can be used in any position (except upside down) due to the immobilized electrolyte.

• Safety: Incorporates a pressure-relief valve to prevent gas buildup during charging.

• Low Self-Discharge: Ideal for standby applications, though it should be maintained with periodic charges if left idle.

Typical Applications

Due to its small footprint and 12V output, this battery is commonly used in:

• Security Systems: Battery backup for alarm panels and motion sensors.

• Emergency Lighting: Powering small backup lamps and exit signage.

• Small Electronic Devices: Used in digital scales, medical diagnostic tools, and portable laboratory equipment.

• Communications: Backup for small networking hardware, routers, or specialized signaling equipment.

• Hobbyist Electronics: Often used in small robotic projects or remote-controlled units.

Important Maintenance & Selection Tips

• Compatibility: If you are replacing an existing unit, always verify the physical dimensions (97x43x52mm) and ensure the terminal type is the F1 (4.75mm) spade. Even if a battery is labeled “12V 1.2Ah,” slight variations in casing size can occur between brands.

• Charging: Ensure you use a dedicated SLA/AGM battery charger. These batteries should be charged at a constant voltage. Avoid using generic power adapters that do not have current/voltage regulation, as this can cause the battery to swell or fail prematurely.

• Handling: Like all lead-acid batteries, they are heavy for their size and contain lead and acid. Always handle them with care and dispose of them through proper battery recycling channels at the end of their service life.
