Battery models explained
AGM Deep Cycle
12Vdc/8-240Ah 6Vdc/240Ah
The AGM range has very low internal resistance making them
particularly suitable for high current discharge applications
such as for inverters, thrusters and winches.
M8 drilled, flat copper terminals ensuring best possible
connection contact and eliminating the need for battery
terminals.
Optional with threaded insert terminals.
Cycle design life:
250 cycles at 100% discharge
600 cycles at 50% discharge
1250 cycles at 30% discharge
How do we test batteries?
(Dis)charge 0,2C₂₀
100%
Testing is done to simulate abusive use:
100%
30% • Fully charge the battery
30% • Discharge at 0,2C until the required
SOC/voltage limit is reached
50% • Leave the battery discharged for 2 hours
• Fully charge again with 8h absorption

AGM Deep Cycle telecom
12Vdc/115-200Ah
Designed for telecom applications.
Excellent 'floor space savers' for marine and
vehicle applications.
Always with threaded insert terminals.
Cycle design life:
250 cycles at 100% discharge
600 cycles at 50% discharge
1250 cycles at 30% discharge
AGM Super Cycle
12Vdc/12,5-230Ah
The AGM Super Cycle batteries are the result of
recent battery electrochemistry developments. The
paste of the positive plates is less sensitive to
softening, even in case of repeated 100% discharge
of the battery and new additives to the electrolyte
reduce sulfation in case of deep discharge.
Comes with threaded insert terminals
Cycle design life:
300 cycles at 100% discharge
800 cycles at 50% discharge
1500 cycles at 30% discharge
GEL Deep Cycle
12Vdc/60-265Ah
The GEL model range offers best deep cycle durability and
overall longer life.
Low self-discharge so that they will not go flat during long
periods without charge.
Supplied with M8 drilled, flat copper terminals.
Cycle design life:
250 cycles at 100% discharge
600 cycles at 50% discharge
1250 cycles at 30% discharge
AGM Lead Carbon
12Vdc/106-160Ah
Replacing the active material of the
negative plate by a lead carbon composite
potentially reduces sulfation and improves
charge acceptance of the negative plate.
Comes with threaded insert terminals.
Cycle design life:
500 cycles at 100% discharge
1300cycles at 50% discharge
1600 cycles at 30% discharge
Deep cycle as starter battery?
CCA @ 0ºF: SAE Cold Cranking Amps at 0ºF / -18ºC
Height includes poles RES CAP @80ºF: Reserve
Capacity at 80ºF / 27ºC
GEL OPzV tubular plate
2Vdc/200-3000
Comes with threaded insert terminals.
Cycle design life:
500 cycles at 100% discharge
2500cycles at 50% discharge
3500 cycles at 30% discharge
OPzS Solar batteries
2Vdc/910-4560Ah
Come with threaded insert terminals
Cycle design life:
600 cycles at 100% discharge
2800cycles at 50% discharge
5200 cycles at 30% discharge
LiFePO4 Battery Smart
12,8V/60-300AH
With integrated (active) cell balancing.
Lithium-iron-phosphate (LiFePO4 or LFP) is
the safest of the mainstream li-ion battery
types.
Can be parallel and series connected.
Cycle design life:
2000 cycles at 100% discharge
4000 cycles at 50% discharge
7000 cycles at 30% discharge
LiFePO4 battery
24Vdc/180Ah
This is comprised of a very modern battery with an
advanced control- and security system; the so-called
Battery Management System (BMS).
The BMS controls the charging and discharging,
immediately takes action when certain (critical)
values are exceeded and safeguards an efficient
energy transfer.
Cycle design life:
2000 cycles at 100% discharge
4000 cycles at 50% discharge
7000 cycles at 30% discharge
Lithium HE battery
24Vdc/100-200Ah
185Wh/kg thanks to Lithium Nickel Manganese
Cobalt Oxide (NMC) technology (28,6 kg /5kWh).
The BMS controls the charging and discharging,
immediately takes action when certain (critical)
values are exceeded and safeguards an efficient
energy transfer.
Cycle design life:
1500 cycles at 100% discharge
3000 cycles at 50% discharge
4000 cycles at 30% discharge
Victron Peak Power Pack
12Vdc/8-40Ah
Lithium Super Pack
12,8V/50-200Ah
Integrated BMS and safety switch
The SuperPack batteries are extremely easy to install, not
needing any additional components.
The internal switch will disconnect the battery in case of
over discharge, over charge or high temperature.
Limited charge/discharge current.
