AGM Deep Cycle 12V/240Ah (M8) - Deep cycle AGM battery, M8 threaded terminals
AGM Deep Cycle 12V/240Ah (M8) is a sealed lead-acid (VRLA) battery with AGM technology and very low internal resistance, suited to high-current discharges such as inverters, thrusters and winches. With 240 Ah it is suited to battery banks in off-grid systems, motorhomes and boats. Self-discharge below 2% per month at 20 °C allows long periods without charging.
Main features:
- Voltage and capacity: 12 V, 240 Ah (C20)
- Float design life: 7-10 years at 20 °C
- Cycle life: 400 at 80% DoD, 600 at 50% DoD
- Cold cranking amps (CCA): 650 A
- Terminals: M8 threaded inserts
- Dimensions and weight: 522 × 240 × 224 mm, 67 kg
VRLA AGM: design life 7-10 years
VRLA GEL: design life 12 years
The AGM range has very low internal resistance making them particularly suitable for high current discharge applications such as for inverters, thrusters and winches.
The GEL model range offers best deep cycle durability and overall longer life. The use of high purity materials and lead calcium grids ensure that for both AGM and GEL products have particularly low self-discharge so that they will not go flat during long periods without charge. Both ranges are supplied with M8 drilled, flat copper terminals ensuring best possible connection contact and eliminating the need for battery terminals. The batteries are compliant with both CE and UL specifications in ABS fireproof containers and come with Victron's 2 year world-wide warranty.
