The Tensite AGM 250Ah 12V Front Battery is a VRLA-type monoblock accumulator that does not need maintenance.
Feature Front Tensite AGM 250Ah 12V battery
The 250Ah 12V Tensite AGM Front Battery is a monoblock battery that does not require any type of maintenance. It is a sealed battery that can be installed inside a home and where there is little ventilation, since it does not emit gases.
It is a battery that has an ABS plastic container that guarantees very good resistance and durability. For this same reason, it is used in telecommunications systems due to its frontal format, but also in photovoltaic systems, since it has very attractive technical characteristics.
The installation of the Tensite AGM 250Ah 12V Front Battery is very simple thanks to its compact dimensions. During transport, installation or handling it is recommended that it not tip over, although if it were to tip over at any time it would not spill acid because it is a sealed monoblock battery. It has the edges at the front, so it is very easy to connect the batteries in series with an interconnect jumper.
In order to optimize its useful life, it is recommended that discharges not exceed 30%, although deep discharges can be carried out in a timely manner. If this feature is abused, its useful life would be significantly reduced.
As previously mentioned, the Tensite AGM 250Ah 12V Front Battery is a 12V, VRLA and AGM deep cycle monobloc battery. The family of VRLA batteries are lead-acid batteries that do not require maintenance and, being AGM, have inside the electrolyte that carries out the chemical reaction arranged in fiberglass membranes that are adhered to the lead plates.
In this way, the battery does not emit gases during its operation, it is not necessary to refill the electrolyte and it is also very safe to work in environments without ventilation where there may be danger due to the gases emitted by lead batteries when they are in operation.
To get the battery to be 12V, inside it contains 6 2V cells that form the battery block. Also, being deep cycle ensures that it will withstand deep discharges better than an AGM battery.
Some technical characteristics of the Tensite AGM 250Ah 12V Front Battery are the following:
- Dimensions of 547 x 124 x 320 mm.
- Approximate weight of 55.5 kg.
- Capacity in C100:-250Ah.
- Screw terminal with metric 8.
- Absolute limit voltage with discharged battery: 10.8V.
- VRLA battery without maintenance (Valve Regulated Lead Acid).
- AGM technology with absorbent glass separator between the lead plates.
The Tensite AGM 250Ah 12V Front Battery is from the manufacturer Tensite, so it has a quality guarantee thanks to the controls carried out in the production processes and final product tests.
On the other hand, if the battery were connected to a solar installation, it would be necessary to use a charge regulator with the appropriate configuration for the battery. Both with a photovoltaic regulator and with a battery charger, we should not exceed 25A or 30A of charging intensity on a regular basis and that this be at the correct voltage for the AGM battery.
Common uses of the Tensite AGM 250Ah 12V Front Battery
The Tensite AGM 250Ah 12V Front Battery is one of the highest capacity front batteries in AGM and 12V technology. It can be used to: feed consumption in a caravan, lighting, television or small consumption in an isolated installation, among others. What should be avoided is using the battery to power electric motors or other traction operations.
