Description
CBL9-12 | 12V 9Ah Sealed Lead Acid Battery | 108Wh | F2 Terminal | 5.40 lbs (2.45 kg) | Lead Calcium Alloy | UL 1989 Certified
The Canbat 12V 9Ah SLA battery is a valve-regulated sealed lead acid (VRLA) AGM battery designed for mission-critical standby and light cyclic applications requiring extended runtime and high reliability. Featuring lead calcium alloy plate construction and absorbent glass mat (AGM) technology, the battery delivers maintenance-free operation, a self-discharge rate below 2% per month, and reliable float performance across a 20+ year design floating life at 20°C. The compact footprint — 5.95 × 2.56 × 3.68 in — accommodates standard enclosure formats across UPS, telecommunications, security, and emergency power infrastructure. Certified to UL 1989.
Typical Applications
The CBL9-12 is designed for float standby and light cyclic discharge duty in mission-critical backup power systems requiring extended runtime and high reliability. Rated at 9Ah (C20) at 12V, the battery provides greater reserve capacity than standard 7Ah standby batteries while maintaining compatibility with many common 12V backup power installations. Typical deployment includes UPS backup power systems, telecommunications infrastructure, network equipment, alarm systems, fire detection panels, emergency lighting systems, access control systems, electric power systems (EPS), communication power supplies, building automation controls, DC control systems, medical monitoring equipment, and mobility equipment. The CBL9-12 is commonly used as a replacement 12V 9Ah SLA and AGM battery in UPS systems, telecommunications equipment, network equipment, alarm systems, emergency lighting installations, fire alarm systems, mobility equipment, and commercial standby power applications.
UL 1989 Certification
The CBL9-12 is certified to UL 1989, the Underwriters Laboratories standard for sealed lead acid batteries, covering electrical performance, mechanical integrity, and safety requirements including overcharge tolerance and short circuit protection. Certification is issued following independent third-party laboratory evaluation — not manufacturer self-declaration.
Canbat maintains UL 1989 certification across its sealed lead acid battery lineup. UL 1989 certification is commonly specified for security, fire alarm, emergency lighting, telecommunications, and backup power installations.
VRLA AGM Construction
The CBL9-12 12V 9Ah SLA battery uses valve-regulated absorbent glass mat (AGM) construction, with electrolyte immobilized within puncture resistant micro-porous glass mat separators. The sealed recombinant cell design prevents acid emission under normal operating conditions and permits installation in any orientation. Lead calcium alloy plate construction eliminates watering requirements, reduces gassing, and supports low self-discharge performance. Batteries stored at 25°C may be held up to six months before a refresh charge is required; storage at elevated temperatures reduces this interval.

WOW !!! EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED. I needed a battery to start my generator and I found this Canbat 12V 9Ah battery and have been using it for 4 months now and I am very satisfied. I start the generator at least once a week and it works well. The battery is doing a great job. Charged it a few times and no heating I will buy again soon. THANK YOU!!

This battery a little more expensive than other ones I’ve purchased before, but the Canbat battery is definitely worth the money. I’m getting the highest runtime compared to all others tested, including the original UPS battery that came with the UPS.

We purchased this Canbat 9Ah battery to replace PWHR1234W2FR. The dimensions are exactly the same, but the performance is much better. The new Canbat 9Ah AGM batteries have been installed in UPS systems for a local municipality and the results are satisfactory.
