5.5 Service Life Definition
The service life of the FIAMM SoNick 48TL160H battery is the period of useful service under the
conditions defined in the battery specification expressed as the period elapsed between the start of
life and the time where the ampere-hour maximum capacity has fallen to 80% of the rated capacity.
Even if the battery goes below 80%, its rated capacity will not drop abruptly and suddenly like other
battery technologies.
5.6 Extended Outages
Extended outages don’t have any consequences on the battery health. In case of a prolonged
discharge, the battery disconnects itself from the load when its energy is expended and, if the main
DC supply doesn’t come back, the internal temperature will start to decrease. When cold the
battery is completely inactive and can stand in such condition for a period of time which is virtually
infinite. As soon as the mains return the battery starts the warm up procedure (if needed).
