High capacity battery for helicopters

May 31, 2012

Concorde Battery is pleased to announce certification of the higher capacity RG-224 for the Bell LongRanger.   Concorde’s sealed lead acid recombinant gas (RG®), absorbed glass mat (AGM) RG-224 is a 24Ah battery designed for improved performance and longer life in demanding applications. Many users are getting superior performance with the current 17Ah RG-222 however, the RG-224 was developed for customers with higher cyclic applications in mind. RG-224 is FAA TSO C-173 approved and has passed the rigorous requirements of TSO testing. The RG-224 can be installed in Bell LongRanger models using Falcon Crest STC No. SR09069RC. It is a plug-in replacement for the OE Ni-Cd or previously installed RG-222.  No modification to the aircraft is required. Concorde designs and manufactures more than 90 models of original equipment and direct replacement batteries for fixed wing and rotary aircraft and has a reputation for designing application specific solutions.
