SAFT LS 17500 Lithium Industrial Batteries

LS17500 batteries for demanding industrial equipment

The LS17500 battery, also written as LS 17500 or SAFT LS17500, is a high-performance 3.6V lithium thionyl chloride cell designed for long service life in professional electronics. With a typical capacity of 3600 mAh, this 17500 battery is a trusted choice for industrial devices that require stable voltage, low self-discharge and dependable operation over long periods.

Standard LS17500 / ER17500 format

The standard cell is suitable for maintenance, replacement and new builds where the device uses a cylindrical 3.6V lithium cell. It is commonly selected for metering systems, alarms, security electronics, memory backup, industrial control units and remote monitoring modules. If your equipment specifies LS17500, LS 17500 or ER17500, check the terminal type and dimensions before ordering.

Axial terminals for easy integration

The SAFT LS 17500-CNA version includes axial leads, making it practical for assemblies where soldering to a PCB, connector or battery pack is required. This option is often preferred in OEM servicing and industrial repairs because the attached terminal configuration can reduce installation time while keeping the same 3.6V 3600 mAh chemistry.

How to choose the right SAFT LS17500 battery

Although all products in this category are based on the LS17500 3.6V lithium chemistry, the correct choice depends on the mechanical connection required by your device. Before purchase, compare the original battery marking, connector position, polarity and mounting method. A different terminal shape may not fit even when the electrical specifications match.

• Voltage: 3.6V nominal lithium thionyl chloride cell.
• Capacity: 3600 mAh for long operating intervals.
• Common references: LS17500, LS 17500, SAFT LS17500 and ER17500.
• Applications: meters, sensors, alarms, PLC backup, tracking and remote industrial electronics.

U-plate terminals for board mounting

The U-plate LS17500 version is made for devices that hold the cell securely on a board or within a dedicated compartment. It provides the same stable output while matching equipment that requires a specific plate orientation. Choose this variant when your old battery has a matching U-shaped contact layout.

Z-plate terminals for compatible assemblies

The Z-plate model is intended for equipment that needs offset plate contacts. It is a good replacement when the original battery label shows LS17500 but the physical connection differs from the standard cell. For best performance, store lithium industrial batteries in a cool, dry place and install them with the correct polarity.

Tip: If you are unsure which LS17500 battery to choose, compare your current cell with the product photos and terminal description before completing your order.
