Description

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.

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. 

Exceptional Deep Discharge Recovery:

Victron VRLA batteries have exceptional discharge recovery, even after deep or prolonged discharge. 

Battery Discharging Characteristics:

The rated capacity of Victron AGM and Gel Deep Cycle batteries refers to 20 hour discharge, in other words: a discharge current of 0,05 C.

Effect of temperature on service life:

High temperature has a very negative effect on service life.

Effect of temperature on capacity:

Capacity reduces sharply at low temperatures.

Cycle life of Victron batteries:

Batteries age due to discharging and recharging. The number of cycles depends on the depth of discharge.

Battery charging in case of cycle use: the 3-step charge curve:

The most common charge curve used to charge VRLA batteries in case of cyclic use is the 3-step charge curve, whereby a constant current phase (the bulk phase) is followed by two constant voltage phases (absorption and float).

Disadvantages of the traditional 3-step charge curve:

During the bulk phase the current is kept at a constant and often high level, even after the gassing voltage (14,34V for a 12V battery) has been exceeded. 

Battery charging: longer battery life with Victron 4-step adaptive charging:

Victron developed the adaptive charge curve. The 4-step adaptive chare curve is the result of years of research and testing.

The Victron four-step adaptive charge curve solves the 3 main problems of the 3-step curve:

Battery Safe Mode

In order to prevent excessive gassing, Victron has invented the ‘Battery Safe Mode’. The Battery Safe Mode will limit the rate of voltage increase once the gassing voltage has been reached. Research has shown that this will reduce internal gassing to a safe level.

Variable absorption time

Based on the duration of the bulk stage, the charger calculates how long the absorption time should be in order to fully charge the battery. 

Storage mode

After completion of the absorption period the battery should be fully charged, and the voltage is lowered to the float or standby level. 

Battery charging in case of standby use: constant voltage float charging:

When a battery is not frequently deeply discharged, a 2-step charge curve can be used. During the first phase the battery is charged with a limited current (the bulk phase). Once a pre-set voltage has been reached the battery is kept at that voltage (the float phase). 

Optimum charge voltage of Victron VRLA batteries:

The recommended charge voltage settings for a 12V battery.

Effect of temperature on charging voltage:

The charge voltage should be reduced with increased temperature. Temperature compensation is required when the temperature of the battery is expected to be less than 10°C / 50°F or more than 30°C / 85°F during long periods of time.

The recommended temperature compensation for Victron VRLA batteries is -4 mV / Cell (-24 mV /°C for a 12V battery).

The centre point for temperature compensation is 25°C / 70°F.

Charge current:

The charge current should preferably not exceed 0,2C (20A for a 100Ah battery).The temperature of a battery will increase by more than 10°C if the charge current exceeds 0,2C. Therefore temperature compensation is required if the charge current exceeds 0,2C.
