RS PRO Lithium Thionyl Chloride AA Battery 3.6V 2.4Ah PCB Termination 183-5709

RS PRO 183-5709 Lithium Thionyl Chloride AA Battery is engineered for demanding industrial and electronics applications requiring compact, high-energy power sources. With its AA form factor, 3.6V nominal voltage and 2.4Ah capacity, this battery delivers dependable performance for devices reliant on long-term operation and minimal maintenance. The lithium thionyl chloride chemistry ensures a low self-discharge rate (approximately 1% per year at 20°C), making it suitable for equipment that may be in standby mode or storage for extended periods.

This battery features PCB termination, simplifying electronic integration where tagged terminals are preferred. Its operating range of -55°C to 85°C provides excellent resilience in extreme environments, including outdoor, automotive and military contexts. The standard AA size (14.5mm diameter, 50.5mm height) allows straightforward placement in battery holders, sensors and instrumentation.

The RS PRO 183-5709 offers a maximum constant discharge of 100mA and supports pulses up to 200mA, making it appropriate for instruments requiring occasional high current output. Safety and compliance are ensured with UL approval and RoHS conformity. The 22g lightweight construction reduces load in portable and embedded applications.

Use cases include alarms and security devices, automotive electronics, electronic toll collection systems, intelligent meters, memory backup, standby power, and military instruments. This battery's 15-year shelf life and reliability make it ideal for projects where replacement intervals are infrequent and long-term dependability is critical.

Industrial and laboratory professionals will find this AA battery a strong choice for applications where performance, durability, and high quality are required. Browse more RS PRO batteries and industrial power solutions in the Batteries category at EnvMart.
