The Kidde 12V10A is an 11 Ah sealed lead acid battery built for secondary (standby) power in fire alarm signaling systems per NFPA 72. Drop it into any Kidde Commercial FACP, NAC booster, or auxiliary power supply that calls for a 12V DC SLA - it float-charges off the panel and stands ready when mains power drops.
Built for the fire alarm installer
Non-spillable and DOT-classified non-hazardous, so transport and handling on the job site stay simple. ABS thermoplastic case stands up to panel enclosure temperatures from 32°F to 120°F. Rechargeable chemistry means the battery maintains charge from the panel's built-in charger without scheduled replacements outside normal inspection cycles.
