PSL-SC-121000;G31

Combining proven lithium technology with an intelligent battery management system (BMS), the Power Sonic PSL-SC range delivers a lithium battery that lasts longer, weighs less and charges quicker than the equivalent lead acid battery. At the heart of every Power Sonic PSL-SC lithium battery is an intelligent BMS that monitors and reacts to multiple voltage, current, and temperature events to maximize performance, battery life and safety. With its advanced BMS design, the PSL-SC range can be connected in a series or parallel configuration up to 4 batteries (model dependent) providing a solution for higher voltage and higher capacity applications.LiFePO4 batteries are much safer than other lithium battery technologies. Using them reduces the risk of explosion or combustion due to high impact, over-charging or short circuit situations. Not only are they safer but they can be mounted in any direction and will never leak. The PSL-SC series can be connected in a series or parallel configuration allowing for higher voltage or higher capacity battery systems. Take a look at our guide to connecting batteries in parallel and series for more information. Lithium offers several performance benefits versus it's sealed lead acid (SLA) equivalent. A lithium battery's capacity is independent from the discharge rate and provides constant power throughout it's discharge. The degradation of a lithium battery at a high temperature is significantly reduced in comparison to SLA. Lithium has ten times the cycle life as SLA at room temperature. Even at an elevated temperature, lithium still has increased cycle life. Lastly, Lithium charging follows a similar charging profile as SLA, Constant Current Constant Voltage (CC/CV). However, lithium can be charged faster, without the need for a maintenance float charge. Take a look at these blog posts for more information on the differences between lithium and lead acid batteries and how to charge lithium batteries.

The PSL-SC-121000-G31 is part of our Rechargeable Lithium Battery deep cycle range of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries that can be connected in a series or parallel configurations for higher voltage or higher capacity applications. The 12.8V 100.0A deep cycle LiFePO4 battery offers superior performance in a wide range of applications including Data Center, Medical, Mobility, Solar, Sport Recreation, Transport, and Wind. The PSL-SC-121000-G31 offers up to 10 times more cycles at 40% of the weight of the equivalent lead acid battery. Our PSL-SC Series has an integrated battery management system (BMS) that controls the parameters of the battery to provide optimum safety and performance. Our enhanced design balances the battery cells and protects against overcharging or over discharging. All Power-Sonic batteries are subject to stringent quality controls through each step of the manufacturing process to ensure consistency and reliability.

Cycle Applications: Apply constant voltage charge at 3.60VPC – 3.65VPC (14.4 to 14.6 volts for 12V Monobloc) at 20°C. The initial charging current should be set at less than C/4 Amps. Terminate the charge when the current falls to a 3% capacity rate to avoid overcharging. Stand-By or "Float" Service: Apply constant voltage charge of 3.35VPC – 3.45VPC (13.4 to 13.8 volts for 12V Monobloc) at 20°C. When held at this voltage, the battery will seek its own current level and maintain itself in a fully charged condition.
