SPECIFICATIONS
MK Sealed PV/Solar Batteries
MK sealed batteries are designed for maintenance-free operation for the life of the battery. Sealed construction eliminates periodic watering, corrosive acid fumes and spills. Tank formed plates ensure voltage matching between cells. Most models are rated non-spillable by ICAO, IATA and DOT, meaning easy transportation by air requiring no special containers. Exceptions are the three AGM models marked by asterisks in the table, which cannot be shipped by air freight or UPS and must be shipped by truck freight on pallets. 1-year warranty.
MK sealed gel batteries
The gelled electrolyte won’t stratify, so no equalization charging is required. Less than 2% per month standby loss means low discharge during transport and storage. Gel batteries are best for cycling operations and where very cold temperatures are expected. They can operate at temperatures from -76 to 140 F.
MK sealed AGM batteries
The gelled electrolyte won’t stratify, so no equalization charging is required. Less than 2% per month standby loss means low discharge during transport and storage. Gel batteries are best for cycling operations and where very cold temperatures are expected. They can operate at temperatures from -76 to 140 F.
MK 8L-16 6-Volt Deep Cycle Battery
These are completely sealed, absorbed glass mat, valve-regulated batteries with efficient recombination. UL Recognized components to UL MH17218. AGM batteries are recommended for battery backup standby power systems where batteries are in float service with occasional deep discharges. They can operate at temperatures from -40 to 140 F. Delivered from one of 20 MK warehouses across the U.S. NOTE: The 3 asterisked models in the table can NOT be shipped by air or UPS, only by truck freight.
Trojan
Commercial Deep Cycle Lead Acid Batteries
SPECIFICATIONS
These batteries have been used in off-grid power systems in remote cabins for the past 25 years with great success. Because of their low initial cost, they are the most affordable true, deep cycle batteries. The T105 golf cart battery is designed to be used in small electric vehicles where they are cycled heavily and last about 2 years. In a remote home system where they are cycled down 20% every day they can last 3 to 6 years. The L-16 battery is a heavy-duty cousin of the golf cart battery with much thicker lead plates and nearly twice the capacity. Trojan’s Renewable Energy (RE) Series (L16RE-2V, L16RE-A, L16RE-B and T105-RE) is a line of technologically advanced lead-acid deep cycle batteries, optimized for renewable energy applications such as solar PV, small wind, and micro hydro. They have heavier duty separators and plates designed for longer life and their warranty has been extended to two years free replacement and 60 months additional pro-rated on the L16s and 36 months pro-rated on the T-105.
Rolls / Surrette
S-Series Batteries
SPECIFICATIONS
These commercial batteries are the same size the L16 batteries from Trojan and Deka. They are rated at 1000 cycles at 50% depth of discharge. Batteries shipped to commercial addresses qualify for free shipping to some regions of the country. East of the Mississippi, freight is free on orders of 18 batteries or more to the same commercial address. West of the Mississippi and east of the Rockies, freight is free on orders of 36 batteries or more. West of the Rockies, freight is free on orders of 54 batteries or more.
Industrial Batteries
Rolls / Surrette
Deep Cycle Industrial Flooded Batteries
SPECIFICATIONS
These are the new generation, dual container, deep cycle Rolls batteries from Surrette. They are high-capacity batteries with a heavy-duty plate grid to resist positive plate breakdown. The plates are double insulated with glass mat and a polyethylene envelope, eliminating the possibility of separator misalignment, cracked separators, treeing or shorting at the bottoms or sides. Rolls batteries are rated at 3200 cycles at 50% depth of discharge. Each 2-volt cell is built into its own lightweight container made of durable polypropylene with the cover heat bonded to the container, thus acid leakage is eliminated. The cells are then assembled into a tough, lightweight polyethylene outer container with a removable lid. Even if the outer case is broken the battery remains operable and spill-free. The individual cells of the CS and KS series are bolted together allowing the battery to be disassembled. The cells can be independently removed.
This facilitates easy on-site installation, disassembly, assembly, or replacements of individual cells without special skills or tools. All 5000 Series Rolls Batteries, including the CS & KS models, come with a 10-year warranty, 3-year full warranty, and 7-year prorated warranty.
HuP Solar-One
2100 Cycle Industrial Batteries
SPECIFICATIONS
The Solar-One battery with HuP Technology is optimized for renewable energy systems. It has a slightly enlarged epoxy-coated steel case that allows cell removal and easier installation without a forklift or crane. Solar-One batteries are designed with 0.310″ thick positive plates and a patented technology that allows them to be warranted for 2100 cycles to 80% depth of discharge. The 10-year warranty, 7-year free replacement and 3 years prorated is the best in the RE industry. Each Solar-One is made up of six 2-volt cells and comes with stainless steel hardware, lead-plated copper busbars, a cell-lifting strap and an operator/installation manual. Order two for 24-volt systems or four for 48-volt systems. Many sizes are in stock and available for immediate shipment. Other sizes are made to order; please allow up to 8 weeks for delivery. Free shipping to a commercial location in the continental 48 states.
GNB
Absolyte GP Industrial Sealed Batteries
SPECIFICATIONS
ReStore Energy Systems, a division of Exide Technologies, specializes in renewable energy sources. ReStore’s Absolyte GP Industrial Sealed Battery was developed by GNB (also a division of Exide) in conjunction with Sandia National Laboratories. Together they created the first VRLA large capacity, deep cycle battery for PV applications, designed for deep discharge recovery. Life expectancy: in float conditions, 20 years @ 25°C (77°F) with proper charging; in cycling conditions, 1200 cycles to 80% DOD with proper charging. Sealed cells with absorbed glass mat (AGM) separators eliminate the need for periodic water additions as found in flooded cells. Periodic visual inspections, voltage readings, and connection retorquing required.
Protective steel tray housings offer maximum installation flexibility and the Absolute GP is normally stacked horizontally up to eight high for use in 1997 UBC/2001 CBC Seismic Zone IV (at or below grade). This yields high capacity in a small footprint and frees up floor space for other equipment; and because they are sealed, they do not require a separate battery room.
IEC 896, BS 6290, UL Recognized, ISO 9001:2000, designed to meet Telcordia SR4228 and GR-63-CORE (NEBS).
When ordering you must specify the positive and negative terminal locations and stacking configuration. Protective steel tray housings offer maximum installation flexibility and the Absolute GP is normally stacked flat up to eight high vertically for use in 1997 UBC/2001 CBC Seismic Zone IV (at or below grade). All cell connections are included for each battery system that consists of one series string. Connections for parallel strings are not included.
