Yuasa REC80-12I 12V 80Ah Cyclic AGM VRLA Battery
Description
Cyclic AGM battery for repeated charge and discharge duty
The Yuasa REC80-12I is a 12 V, 80 Ah (20-hour rate) valve-regulated AGM battery from the REC series, which Yuasa describes as cyclic AGM VRLA batteries. Where a standby battery sits on float for years, a cyclic battery is charged and discharged regularly, for example in small solar and off-grid storage or in mobile and portable equipment. The label on the block reads Cyclic Application.
Yuasa publishes cycle-life data for the REC80-12I: 300 cycles at 100 % depth of discharge, 500 cycles at 75 %, 600 cycles at 50 % and 1400 cycles at 25 %, each to 80 % of capacity. The data sheet does not give a EUROBAT classification, and quotes a design life of up to 10 years at 20 °C.

Charging cyclic batteries
A cyclic duty battery needs a charger with the boost voltage of 14.52 V per block at 20 °C and a current limit of 20 A, with temperature compensation of -4 mV per cell per °C. The data sheet gives the same float and boost current limit. A charger that is set for float only will not recharge a deeply discharged block quickly.
Installation limits match other Yuasa VRLA blocks: up to 90 degrees from upright, no suspending by the handles, and no installation in a sealed container because hydrogen can accumulate. Note the narrower temperature range of this block, -15 to +45 °C for storage, charge and discharge, compared with the NPL series.
Choosing a REC size
| Model | Voltage | Capacity (Yuasa page) | Series |
|---|---|---|---|
| REC22-12I | 12 V | 22 Ah | Cyclic AGM VRLA |
| REC26-12I | 12 V | 26 Ah | Cyclic AGM VRLA |
| REC36-12I | 12 V | 36 Ah | Cyclic AGM VRLA |
| REC50-12I | 12 V | 50 Ah | Cyclic AGM VRLA |
| REC80-12I (this page) | 12 V | 80 Ah | Cyclic AGM VRLA |
Size the battery from the daily energy throughput and the depth of discharge, using the cycle-life figures above, and confirm the charger profile. For a standby-duty alternative see the NPL65-12I long-life block or Yuasa NP12-12 sealed lead acid battery.

About brand
Yuasa, a brand of Kyoto-based GS Yuasa Corporation with roots going back to 1918, is known for sealed lead-acid batteries used in standby power. Its NP series of valve-regulated batteries serves standby and cyclic duty in UPS units, alarm panels and control cabinets. Seven Star LLC lists the Yuasa NP12-12 and supplies Yuasa sealed lead-acid batteries to industrial and commercial facilities in Oman.
Yuasa NP batteries listed here
The Yuasa NP12-12 is a 12 V, 12 Ah sealed lead-acid battery of the absorbent glass mat type with Faston terminals. In NP designations the first number is the capacity in ampere-hours and the second is the nominal voltage, so NP7-12 would be a 7 Ah, 12 V block. Extra letters after the number mark a variant, such as FR for a flame-retardant case.
Ordering Yuasa batteries: what we need
Send the full type printed on the battery, including any suffix letters, and the quantity. Tell us the equipment it serves, such as a UPS model or a fire alarm panel, and the terminal type on the old battery. Measure length, width and height if the label is missing. For a UPS, state how many blocks are in the string, since they should be replaced together. We also quote Yuasa batteries for buyers elsewhere in the GCC.
