How long the rack UPS lithium ion battery life

How long is the shelf UPS Lithium ion battery life? As a type of lithium-ion battery UPS, how long is the service life of the lithium-ion battery inside the rack UPS? Since it is a lithium-ion battery product, its life is generally 2000 times.


How long the rack UPS lithium ion battery life


In fact, the service life of lithium ion battery is generally not calculated by years, but by the number of cycles to calculate, of course, the number of cycles is not only the number of charge and discharge but a charge and discharge cycle.


This 2000 cycle life means that rack UPS lithium ion batteries have 2000 charge and discharge cycles. But a charging cycle doesn't mean you have to use up all of your lithium-ion batteries before recharging them again. Instead, a lithium-ion battery is charged when it is less than half full after a period of use and is fully charged until the next day, when the remaining charge is used.


This 2000 cycle life is not absolute, however, as it is possible to customize rack UPS with longer cycle life for a higher cost.


After saying this service life, xiaobian also wants to tell you some ways to extend the service life of rack UPS lithium ion batteries. After all, the capacity of lithium-ion batteries is limited, but in the process of use, the correct use and daily maintenance are conducive to prolong the life of rack UPS lithium-ion batteries.


Ways to extend the service life of rack UPS lithium ion batteries


◆ Use environment


The use environment of rack UPS is also very important. It should have less dust, no corrosive air, no direct sunlight and good lightning protection effect. The temperature in the equipment room should be controlled within a certain range, and the floor should be equipped with an ESD floor.



◆ Access load


The most reasonable range of load is 30%-60%, full load, excessive load will affect the life of UPS, at least once a year to maintain.


In pieces to charge and discharge


The charge and discharge of lithium ion battery on time can better extend its service life, generally every 2 to 3 months complete discharge once, the detailed time of discharge also depends on the capacity and load size of lithium ion battery itself. After a full load discharge, charge according to the instructions



Correct switch sequence


The correct startup/shutdown sequence should be to first turn on the UPS to supply power, and then turn on the loads, so as to prevent damage to the UPS caused by the transient current shock at startup. In shutdown, the sequence should be reversed: close the loads first and close the UPS last.


In the use of rack UPS lithium ion batteries, there are many things to pay attention to, the correct way of use, daily maintenance and use of these can effectively extend the life of lithium ion batteries
