Product catalog summary
Introduction to AGM Super Cycle Battery
The AGM Super Cycle battery represents a significant advancement in battery electrochemistry. It features a positive plate paste that is less prone to softening and includes new electrolyte additives to reduce sulfation during deep discharges.

Performance and Durability
The battery is designed to withstand at least 300 cycles at 100% depth of discharge (DoD). Testing involved daily discharges to 10.8V, a two-hour rest period, and recharging, which would typically damage other batteries within 100 cycles.

Applications
This battery is recommended for scenarios involving occasional 100% DoD or frequent 60-80% DoD.

Design Advantages
The new chemistry allows for a smaller and lighter battery with lower internal resistance compared to standard deep cycle AGM batteries.

Charging Recommendations
  • Float: 13.5 - 13.8 V
  • Service Cycle: 14.2 - 14.6 V
  • Fast Recharge: 14.6 - 14.9 V
  • Storage: 13.2 - 13.5 V


Specifications
The battery comes in various models with different capacities, dimensions, and weights. For example, the BAT412123081 model offers 230Ah at C20 with dimensions of 532 x 207 x 226 mm and weighs 57 kg.

Cycle Life
  • ≥ 300 cycles at 100% DoD
  • ≥ 700 cycles at 60% DoD
  • ≥ 1000 cycles at 40% DoD

A new AGM battery: the AGM Super Cycle battery-1

A new AGM battery: the AGM Super Cycle battery A truly innovative battery 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. Exceptional 100% depth of discharge (DoD) performance Tests have shown that the Super Cycle battery does withstand at least three hundred 100% DoD cycles. The tests consist of a daily discharge to 10,8V with I = 0,2C₂₀, followed by approximately two hours rest in discharged condition, and then a recharge with I = 0,2C₂₀. The two hours rest period in discharged condition will damage most batteries within 100 cycles, but not the Super Cycle battery. We recommend the Super Cycle battery for applications where an occasional discharge to 100% DoD, or frequent discharge to 6080% DoD is expected. Smaller and lighter An additional advantage of the new chemistry is a slightly smaller size and less weight compared to our standard deep cycle AGM batteries. Low internal resistance The internal resistance is also slightly lower compared to our standard deep cycle AGM batteries.
