AGM battery – 12V/220Ah – Deep Cycle – VICTRON

Victron 12V / 220Ah AGM Battery Features:

VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) technology:

• Waterproof and maintenance-free: The battery is designed to be leak-proof and requires no water addition or maintenance throughout its life.
• Increased security: Safety valves allow gases to escape in the event of overload or failure, reducing the risk of leakage and explosion.

AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology:

• Optimized performance for high discharges: AGM technology allows the battery to deliver high currents for short durations, making it ideal for applications such as starting engines or powering electronic systems.
• Extended life: The AGM design minimizes self-discharge and provides increased resistance to deep discharges, contributing to longer battery life.

Low self-discharge:

• Extended storage: The battery can be stored for long periods without recharging thanks to its low self-discharge rate, less than 2% per month at 20°C.
• Reduced maintenance requirements: Low self-discharge minimizes the need for frequent recharging, reducing maintenance requirements.

Exceptional recovery after deep discharge:

• Resilience to accidental discharges: The battery is able to recover even after a deep or prolonged discharge, giving you peace of mind in case of unforeseen circumstances.
• Importance of moderate use of deep discharges: However, it is important to limit frequent deep discharges, as they can affect the life of the battery, as with all lead-acid batteries.

Discharge characteristics:

• Nominal capacity based on 20 hour discharge: The battery capacity is indicated for a discharge in 20 hours, corresponding to a discharge current of 0.05C.
• Decreased capacity for faster discharges: The effective capacity of the battery decreases as the discharge current increases. For higher discharge currents and shorter discharge times, please refer to Table 1 provided by the manufacturer.
• Even greater reduction with constant power consumers: The capacity reduction is even greater with constant power loads, such as converters.
