Description
Add battery backup to a Valcom VP-6124-UPS paging power system with the VBB-1424, a wall-mount battery box with 14 amp-hour 24-volt gel cell batteries included, providing UPS power storage that keeps paging equipment operating during facility power outages.
The Telecom Spot Expert Review
The VBB-1424 is the battery component of the Valcom UPS paging power system — it provides the stored energy that the VP-6124-UPS draws from during a power outage to keep paging amplifiers, controllers, and speakers operational. The 14 amp-hour / 24-volt gel cell chemistry is sealed and maintenance-free, which is the correct choice for equipment room battery installations where vented lead-acid batteries would require ventilation accommodations and periodic maintenance checks. Gel cell batteries also tolerate the partial-discharge and infrequent discharge cycles typical of UPS applications — where the battery sits fully charged for months and is called on only during outages — better than standard flooded lead-acid designs. Wall mount installation keeps the battery hardware organized with the other paging equipment. At 40 lbs shipping weight, the hardware is substantial — plan the wall mounting location and fastener schedule accordingly. Order this unit specifically for the VP-6124-UPS paging power supply; it is not compatible with other VP-series supplies.
