HIGH DISCHARGE CELL

PS3 Cell – 20000mAh · 3.6V · 170mm Series

FBC10171170PS3

The FBC10171170PS3 is the entry-level cell in the ampKRAFT PS3 170mm Series. At 19,200mAh nominal (typical 20,000mAh) and 247g, it delivers the highest capacity per cell within the slim 9.7mm thickness profile of the 170mm format. With a continuous discharge of 300A at 15C and burst capability of 400A at 20C, it is designed for high-current UAV pack designs where both capacity and sustained current output are priorities. The 170mm format covers the upper capacity range of the PS3 Series while maintaining the same 70.5mm cell width for consistent assembly tooling across the full PS3 range.

ABOUT THIS CELL

The FBC10171170PS3 is the entry cell in the ampKRAFT PS3 170mm Series and the slimmest cell in the 170mm format at 9.7mm thickness. With 19,200mAh nominal capacity at 247g, it delivers a strong energy-to-weight ratio for high-capacity pack designs that need to stay within the 169mm cell length constraint.

The continuous discharge of 300A at 15C and burst of 400A at 20C place this cell at a significantly higher current capability than any of the 125mm format cells, making it the natural choice for pack architectures where sustained high-current output is a primary requirement alongside capacity. The low AC impedance of ≤2.5 mΩ ensures stable voltage output under high-current draw throughout the full discharge cycle.

For pack designers working across the PS3 range, the 170mm format cells step up from 19,200mAh to 21,200mAh nominal within the same 70.5mm width, while the 169mm length is a fixed constraint that separates this format from the 125mm cells. The 9.7mm thickness of this cell makes it the thinner of the two 170mm options, which can be relevant for pack designs with tight depth constraints in the 170mm bay.

WHY AMPKRAFT CELLS

Sourcing cells for professional UAV battery pack assembly requires more than a datasheet match. Production consistency, batch traceability, and direct access to the cell manufacturer are the factors that determine whether a pack performs reliably in the field and whether supply can scale with your program.

ampKRAFT owns the intellectual property for the PS3 cell chemistry and manufacturing process. This means cells are not sourced from a third-party manufacturer and relabelled. Every production batch comes with full traceability, and cell specifications are controlled at the source. For OEM manufacturers and pack assemblers working on professional drone platforms, this provides a level of supply chain transparency that is difficult to achieve with commodity cell sourcing.

Custom capacity tiers, modified tab configurations, and volume supply are available on request. Our engineering team works directly with pack development teams from cell selection through to qualification testing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know about the FBC10171170PS3 pouch cell. If your question is not covered here, our engineering team is happy to help directly.

What is the difference between the 125mm and 170mm PS3 cell formats?

The PS3 Series uses two cell formats defined by their length: 124.5mm (125mm Series) and 169mm (170mm Series). Both formats share the same 70.5mm cell width and 3.6V nominal voltage, which means pack tooling for the width dimension is consistent across the full PS3 range. The 170mm format achieves higher capacity per cell by using a longer electrode area, with cells covering 19,200mAh and 21,200mAh nominal compared to 10,600mAh to 16,000mAh in the 125mm format. The 170mm cells also deliver higher continuous discharge current, ranging from 300A to 330A at 15C, compared to 165A to 250.5A for the 125mm cells.

Both cells use the 170mm format and share the same 70.5mm width and 3.6V nominal voltage. The FBC10171170PS3 has a nominal capacity of 19,200mAh at 247g and 9.7mm thickness, while the FBC11071170PS3 delivers 21,200mAh at 272g and 10.6mm thickness. The larger cell adds 25g and 0.9mm of thickness for an additional 2,000mAh nominal capacity and 30A of continuous discharge current. For pack designs where the available depth can accommodate the additional 0.9mm, the FBC11071170PS3 is the straightforward capacity and current upgrade.

The FBC10171170PS3 supports 300A continuous discharge at 15C and 400A burst at 20C. These current levels are significantly higher than the 125mm format cells, reflecting the larger electrode area of the 170mm cell. At 300A continuous, this cell is suited for high-power pack architectures such as 6S1P packs drawing sustained high current for heavy-lift UAV platforms or 8S1P configurations requiring high power output at 28.8V nominal.

The FBC10171170PS3 is rated for discharge between -20°C and +60°C. Charging should take place between 0°C and +45°C with temperature-dependent charge rates from 0.2C at low temperatures up to 1C between 20°C and 35°C. Storage limits are -20°C to +45°C for up to one month and -20°C to +30°C for longer periods. Cell surface temperature limits are 0°C to +55°C for charging and -20°C to +85°C for discharge under limit conditions.
