Solution
Low-temperature operation exposes the weak point in many high-energy cells: available capacity falls, internal resistance rises, and a system sized for mild weather suddenly loses useful flight time or power margin. PE42N-EF is built around that constraint, combining a -43°C to 55°C operating range with 42Ah capacity in a 340g pouch format.
The 3C continuous and 5C pulse discharge ratings give integrators room for takeoff, maneuver, and other short high-load events without specifying a larger cell solely for peak current. It is a bare-cell option for teams developing compact, temperature-tolerant battery systems; see LiTrue’s complete range of battery cells for related configurations.
Application Areas
- Industrial UAVs: supports sustained propulsion demand and 5C pulse loads during takeoff, climbs, and payload maneuvers.
- Cold-Climate Drone Operations: the -43°C lower operating limit addresses the capacity and power loss that can constrain winter deployments.
- Portable Aviation Equipment: the 7 × 87 × 187mm pouch format and 340g weight help designers manage pack volume and mass.
- Custom High-Energy Battery Packs: suitable for integrators building series-parallel systems around a 3.85V nominal cell; explore LiTrue’s finished battery-pack capabilities for pack-level support.
FAQs
What continuous current can the PE42N-EF deliver?
At 3C continuous discharge, the cell is rated for up to 126A. Its 5C pulse discharge rating corresponds to up to 210A for short-duration load events; final pulse duration and thermal limits should be confirmed for the intended pack design.
Can this cell operate in very cold environments?
Yes. The stated operating-temperature range is -43°C to 55°C. Actual available capacity, charge acceptance, and pack thermal strategy should still be validated under the project’s load profile.
What nominal pack voltage can I build with this cell?
Each PE42N-EF cell is 3.85V nominal. For example, a 12S configuration is 46.2V nominal and a 14S configuration is 53.9V nominal; LiTrue can help scope a suitable configuration through its engineering team.
Are samples and shipping documents available?
It depends on the project configuration and destination. Samples can be discussed for engineering evaluation; confirm applicable transport testing, certifications, packaging, and production MOQ with LiTrue before release.
