The Murata VTC6M (US18650VTC6) is an industrial-grade cylindrical lithium-ion cell designed strictly for use within engineered battery pack assemblies, such as those utilized in cordless cleaners. Driven by advanced lithium chemistry, each cell delivers a nominal voltage of 3.6V and a rated minimum capacity of 3000mAh (boasting a nominal capacity of 3120mAh and 10.8Wh of rated energy). Engineered for high-drain performance, it supports a continuous maximum discharge current of up to 30A when paired with an 80°C thermal cutoff, making it an exceptionally reliable choice for power-demanding battery setups. These cells feature high-tier manufacturing quality from Tohoku Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., providing an exceptional energy density of 627Wh/l alongside a very low AC internal impedance range of 8mΩ to 18mΩ.
Safety, compliance, and strict configuration parameters define the core architecture of the VTC6M. It complies with a vast array of global safety benchmarks, including UL1642, IEC62133-2, UN38.3, and China's GB31241-2022 CCC certification. To maintain optimal safety, any battery pack integration must feature a dedicated protection circuit module (PCM) capable of managing individual cell monitoring for over-charging (operating at less than 4.25V), over-discharging (operating at less than 2.50V), over-current, and multi-stage temperature thresholds.
CRITICAL SAFETY WARNING: These cells are exclusively manufactured for assembly into battery packs and are absolutely not intended for individual, standalone sale or use. Using these cells individually outside of a protected battery pack poses a serious risk of severe personal injury or death. Do not solder leads directly to the battery body, expose to fire or moisture, or attempt to charge if the cell drops below 1.0V.
