Victron AGM Battery 12V/14Ah

Victron AGM Battery 12V/14Ah The Victron 12V/14Ah AGM battery is a sealed battery with a capacity of 14Ah based on VRLA technology. An AGM battery is also known as a multi-purpose or dual-purpose battery and is suitable for both slow discharge and briefly supplying high currents for inverters, bow thrusters, and winches. The battery terminals are made of copper with holes for M6 bolts to ensure good contact. Crimp terminals can be mounted directly onto the battery, and battery terminals are not required. The batteries comply with both European CE and American UL specifications in fire-resistant ABS housings and come with Victron Energy's worldwide 2-year warranty. AGM stands for Absorbed Glass Mat. In AGM batteries, the electrolyte is absorbed in a fiberglass mat sandwiched between the plates. In an AGM battery, the charge carriers, hydrogen ions (H2) and sulfate ions (SO4), move more easily between the plates than in a gel battery. VRLA technology VRLA stands for Valve Regulated Lead Acid. This means that the batteries are sealed. Gas will only escape through a safety valve as a result of incorrect charging and/or defective cells. VRLA batteries are maintenance-free throughout their entire lifespan. Low self-discharge Due to the use of lead-calcium grids and very pure materials, Victron VRLA batteries can effortlessly withstand long periods without charging. The self-discharge is less than 2% per month at a temperature of 20°C. This discharge rate doubles with every 10°C increase in temperature. Consequently, Victron VRLA batteries can be stored for up to a year without needing to be recharged, provided this is done at a relatively low temperature. Exceptional discharge recovery Victron VRLA batteries recover very well, even after deep and prolonged discharges. Nevertheless, repeated deep and prolonged discharge has a negative impact on the lifespan of all lead-acid batteries. Victron batteries are no exception. Battery Discharge Characteristics The nominal capacity of Victron 'Deep Cycle' batteries refers to a discharge of 20 hours (a discharge current of 0.05C). The nominal capacity of Victron Tubular Plate Long Life batteries refers to a discharge of 10 hours. The effective capacity decreases as the discharge current increases. Charging Current The charging current of a VRLA battery must not exceed 0.2C (20A for a 100 Ah battery). The temperature of a battery will increase by more than 10°C if the charging current exceeds 0.2C, at which point temperature compensation is necessary.
