AGM Deep Cycle Battery 12V/165Ah (M8)

Sunergy is a Victron specialist and Victron distributor.  We have been installing Victron products for Off Grid, Energy Storage and RV for several years.

Victron hallmarks include innovation, quality, high efficiency and reliability.

12V AGM BATTERY FEATURES:

• VRLA technology:  VRLA stands for Valve Regulated Lead Acid, which means that the batteries are sealed.  Gas will escape through the safety valves only in case of overcharging or cell failure.  VRLA batteries are maintenance free for life.
• Sealed (VRLA) AGM Batteries:  AGM stands for Absorbent Glass Mat.  In these batteries the electrolyte is absorbed into a glass-fibre mat between the plates by capillary action.  As explained in the eBook “Energy Unlimited”, AGM batteries are preferred to Gel batteries in applications requiring short-time delivery of high current.  AGM batteries are also more suitable than gel batteries for RV use as they have higher resistance to vibration.
• Low Self-Discharge:  Because of the use of lead calcium grids and high purity materials, Victron VRLA batteries can be stored during long periods of time without recharge.  The rate of self-discharge is less than 2% per month at 20°C.  The self-discharge doubles for every increase in temperature by 10°C.  Victron VRLA batteries can therefore be stored for up to a year without recharging, if kept under cool conditions.
• Exceptional Deep Discharge Recovery:  Victron VRLA batteries have exceptional discharge recovery, even after deep or prolonged discharge.  Nevertheless, repeatedly deep and prolonged discharge has a very negative effect on the service life of all lead acid batteries, Victron batteries are no exception.

APPLICATION:

These batteries are suited to RV installation due to their tolerance of vibration and ability to deliver high current for short periods of time.  When used in a parallel configuration, Sunergy recommends not having more than 3 strings in parallel.  We also recommend wiring them in such a way as to ensure the best cell balancing possible.
