Description

The Victron Energy 6V 240Ah AGM Deep Cycle is a sealed, maintenance-free VRLA battery built on flat plate Absorbent Glass Mat construction. As a 6 volt unit it is most often used in series, with two batteries combined to form a 12V bank or four to form a 24V bank, an arrangement that suits larger house banks where individual battery weight needs to be kept manageable. The electrolyte is absorbed into a glass-fibre mat between the plates, so the battery is spill-proof and can be mounted in any orientation.

Rated at 240Ah on the 20 hour discharge, with low internal resistance, it delivers strong high-current performance for marine loads such as inverters and thrusters. Lead-calcium grids and high-purity active materials keep self-discharge below 2% per month, allowing extended storage between charges. As with any lead-acid battery, life is longest when discharges are kept shallow and the battery is recharged promptly.

It is supplied with flat copper terminals and provides 700A cold cranking and 270 minutes reserve capacity per battery.

This is a 6 volt battery, how is it used in a 12V system?
Two 6V batteries are connected in series to give 12V at the same amp-hour capacity, or four in series to give 24V. This series arrangement is commonly used for larger banks.
What is the capacity of this battery?
It is rated at 240Ah at the 20 hour discharge rate (C20).
How many charge and discharge cycles can it deliver?
The cycle design life is 400 cycles at 80% depth of discharge, 600 cycles at 50%, and 1500 cycles at 30%. Keeping discharges shallow greatly extends service life.
Does the battery need maintenance?
No. It is a sealed valve-regulated (VRLA) AGM battery and is maintenance-free for life; gas only escapes through the safety valves in the event of overcharging.
Can it be mounted on its side?
Yes. Because the electrolyte is absorbed into a glass-fibre mat rather than being free liquid, the battery is spill-proof and can be mounted in any orientation except inverted.
