Batteries
This product manual (Select Code 157-622-011) provides 
information on Lucent Technologies’ Enhanced VR Series 
batteries, which are available in both 2- and 4-volt models. The 
Enhanced VR Series battery is a stationary, valve-regulated, 
rechargeable, lead-acid battery designed by Bell Laboratories, 
an acknowledged leader in technology, research, and design of 
power systems.
Lucent Technologies’ power products have proved their field 
reliability by providing dependable standby reserve power for 
the telecommunications industry for decades. All battery 
components and manufacturing processes meet Lucent 
Technologies’ strict specifications and quality standards.
Especially useful in applications where space is limited and 
minimal maintenance is desired, the Enhanced VR Series 
batteries are an excellent choice for remote-switching offices 
and subscriber loop applications (such as Lucent Technologies’ 
SLC
®
96 and Series 5 carrier systems), 80E Bulk Power 
Cabinets, space-restricted power locations, customer premises 
applications, small- to medium-sized central offices, electric 
utility substations, and cellular sites.
