Volthium – Battery 12V 400AH 8D Self-heating – 12.8-400-G8DY-CH2O Volthium Outlet, Sale

Volthium – 12V 400AH 8D self-heating battery

The 12V400AH LiFePO4 ABS Battery in 8D format from Volthium is manufactured especially for customers of boats, sailboats, motor vehicles and industrial applications.

The battery is designed for energy storage banks ranging from 5kWh to 20kWh.

These batteries have the particularity of having an accessible and reserved chamber for the BMS. This therefore makes them repairable if necessary, and makes it possible to prolong the life of the cells by limiting the transmission of heat to them. Additionally, a private chamber increases the usable temperature range of these batteries.

In addition, this lithium battery has a built-in cooling system to draw heat out of the battery via its aluminum conductive plate. The heatsink further increases the operating temperature range, while promoting better performance at the internal BMS. In addition, it is possible to attach an additional cooling system, another Volthium exclusive.

This new generation of batteries is also equipped with a stainless steel button that allows discharging to be deactivated while recharging is still authorized. Extremely convenient when you want to leave batteries plugged into the solar system during storage, while eliminating the fear of them going flat from parasitic discharge.

This brand new battery, whose housing is exclusive to Volthium, has 2 RJ45 ports, whose pins are gold-plated, allowing communication on the RS485 protocol. This connectivity is also used to transmit the internal information of the batteries to the Victron environment (on their VE.CAN protocol). To do this, get the HUB accessory from Volthium, another exclusive resulting from our internal and exclusive development.

In addition, the RJ45 connector allows you to add the Volthium bluetooth transmitter, which can support the management of 4 batteries when the transmitter is paired with the HUB.

Not only is this LiFePO4 battery resistant to vibrations, but it has a discharge range superior to the competition. Indeed, this battery can be discharged down to -30 degrees versus -20 degrees for the competition. And if you opt for the self-heating option, it can be recharged down to -40 degrees. This innovation is possible due to the fact that the cells in the Volthium batteries come from the automotive industry.

Exclusive Dual Self-Heating Technology

Be aware that the battery has two internal heating systems. The traditional intelligent system kicks in when you apply a charge to the battery when it is below zero. The second system, called manual, is triggered when you apply a voltage to the positive H+ (M6) connector of the battery. This heating system, called manual, is in no way automated. If you connect the positive terminal of the battery (M8) to the H+ connector (M6) of the battery with a short piece of cable, it will trigger using the energy of the battery.
**Caution, it is necessary to use a timer to avoid forgetting the heating on.**
**The manual heating system is reserved for professionals and operates down to -25 only.**

BMS:

The BMS core is produced by the American company Texas Instrument. This manufacturer of BMS microcontrollers is recognized worldwide in the field of electric automobiles, in addition to its long-standing collaboration with NASA and the American army.Programming and communication protocols are entirely developed by our engineers in Quebec

Cells:

The quality of LFP cells is paramount. Indeed, they are the ones that will ensure that you have a durable product with reliable long-term performance.

The 24V ABS solar storage batteries are equipped with grade A+ prismatic cells, manufactured by Volkswagen Group.
