Lead Carbon 12V/160Ah (M8) is a battery in which the active material of the negative plate is replaced by a lead carbon composite. This reduces sulfation, allows a lower charge voltage with higher efficiency and less corrosion, and improves cycle life. It suits off-grid solar systems and boats where the battery often operates at partial state of charge.

Lead Carbon 12V/160Ah (M8) - Deep cycle lead carbon battery

Lead Carbon 12V/160Ah (M8) is a battery in which the active material of the negative plate is replaced by a lead carbon composite. This reduces sulfation, allows a lower charge voltage with higher efficiency and less corrosion, and improves cycle life. It suits off-grid solar systems and boats where the battery often operates at partial state of charge.

Main features:

  • Voltage and capacity: 12 V, 160 Ah (C20)
  • Cycles at 100% DoD: 500 cycles
  • Partial discharge cycles: 1,000 at 60% DoD, 1,400 at 40% DoD
  • Cold cranking amps (CCA): 600 A
  • Terminals: M8 threaded inserts
  • Dimensions and weight: 532 × 207 × 226 mm, 55 kg

Replacing the active material of the negative plate by a lead carbon composite potentially reduces sulfation and improves charge acceptance of the negative plate.

The advantages of lead carbon therefore are:

  • Less sulfation in case of partial state-of-charge operation.
  • Lower charge voltage and therefore higher efficiency and less corrosion of the positive plate.
  • And the overall result is improved cycle life.
