Key Features & Benefits

Ultra-Long Cycle Life

With >6000 cycles, this deep cycle marine battery significantly outperforms conventional marine batteries. Over a 10-year design life, total cost of ownership is dramatically reduced.

High-Power Discharge Capability

Supports:

  • 200A continuous discharge

  • 150A continuous charge

  • Stable output for high voltage marine battery systems

For example, electric propulsion systems demand consistent torque delivery. Voltage drops common in lead-acid systems are eliminated here.

 Smart BMS Protection

Integrated smart BMS provides:

  • Overcharge / over-discharge protection

  • Short circuit protection

  • Active balancing

  • CAN bus integration

  • Modbus communication

This makes it ideal for marine energy storage system integration.

Marine-Grade IP65 Protection

Salt spray, vibration, and humidity are common marine challenges. IP65-rated casing ensures reliability in harsh offshore conditions.

Flexible Expansion

Supports:

  • Max 2 in series

  • Max 4 in parallel

This allows scalable marine energy storage system architecture for larger yachts and hybrid vessels.
