Description

A battery that delivers energy fast

In a UPS the battery does not need to run for hours; it has to release a lot of energy in a short time so the computer can save its work and shut down cleanly. According to the maker, the HR1221WF2 is designed for exactly this kind of high-efficiency discharge. The listed 21 W is the rated power, not a capacity in amp-hours, which the manufacturer does not specify.

Who this UPS battery is for

UPS owners whose battery has worn out and holds up the load for less and less time; IT staff replacing batteries in several office UPS units with one model; and anyone whose old battery is labelled HR1221WF2 or whose UPS manual names this model.

Questions & answers

Will this battery fit my UPS?

The safest way is to compare the label on the old battery: if it reads CSB HR1221WF2 or your UPS manual names this model, the battery fits. The manufacturer does not specify dimensions or terminal type.

What does 21 W mean?

It is the rated power the battery can deliver during high-rate discharge. Do not confuse it with amp-hours, which describe capacity.

How many batteries does my UPS need?

It depends on the UPS: some models use a single 12 V battery, larger ones several in series. Check how many are in the old unit and replace them all at the same time.
