Capacity is rated at 240Ah on the C20 discharge rate, giving installers a fixed baseline for sizing a bank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity\u003c\/strong\u003e, 240Ah at the C20 rate for predictable discharge behaviour.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAGM construction\u003c\/strong\u003e, Absorbent Glass Mat design with no free electrolyte, so the battery is spill-proof and can be installed at an angle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeep cycle build\u003c\/strong\u003e, thicker plates than a standby battery, intended for repeated daily charge and discharge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSealed VRLA design\u003c\/strong\u003e, valve-regulated construction with no water topping or electrolyte checks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6V nominal voltage\u003c\/strong\u003e, connect in series to build 12V, 24V or 48V banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 30.5kg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVictron agm battery bank sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese 6V cells are normally wired in series rather than used alone. Two in series make a 12V bank, four make 24V and eight make 48V, each string carrying the full 240Ah C20 rating. This is a common way to build larger banks for off-grid and marine use, where several smaller 12V units would otherwise be needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCharging\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAGM chemistry works with a standard three-stage bulk, absorption and float charge profile. On Victron charge controllers and inverter-chargers, select the AGM preset or a matching custom voltage profile. Overcharging is the main cause of early AGM failure, and because the cells are sealed, any gas lost during overcharge cannot be replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOff-grid solar PV systems with daily deep cycling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine and narrowboat house battery banks needing spill-proof cells.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorhome and large vehicle leisure battery setups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackup power systems with regular discharge and recharge cycles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTelecoms and remote monitoring sites with solar charging.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFit and wire this battery with the help of a qualified electrician or experienced solar installer. Batteries connected in series or parallel should be matched for type, age and state of charge before connection. Use AGM charge settings on every connected source, never a gel or wet-cell profile, and provide ventilation even though the cells are sealed, since a fault can cause venting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1 x Victron Energy 6V 240Ah AGM Deep Cycle Battery\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52095577293088,"sku":"BAT406225084","price":238.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-bat406225084-1.webp?v=1785754317","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/agm-deep-cycle-battery-6v-240ah","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
