Ark Battery 200AH, LiFe PO4 Battery, ARK512200, 51.2 Volts - ARK512200

To guarantee that all cells are charged and discharged equally, each ARK Battery has a unique (Impactiv) balancing system. This accomplishes the same thing that lead-acid battery “equalizing” does. External equalization of LiFePO4 batteries may not be possible, but it is essential that each cell maintain the same voltage. An “imbalanced” battery will have a lower capacity, a significantly shorter cycle life, and bothersome BMS shut-offs.

All ARK Batteries use IMPACTIV balancing, which distributes extra power from high-voltage cells to low-voltage cells and increases dissipative consumption if a cell reaches dangerously high voltage.

Maintenance Tips

• Regular Charging: Charge the battery using a LiFePO4-compatible charger, ensuring the voltage stays within the recommended range (51.2V nominal).
• Monitor Battery Health: Check voltage and current levels periodically to maintain performance and identify any irregularities.
• Avoid Deep Discharge: Ensure the battery doesn’t discharge below 20% to prolong its lifespan.
• Keep Terminals Clean: Clean the battery terminals regularly to prevent corrosion and ensure a strong connection.
• Proper Storage: If not in use for extended periods, store in a cool, dry place and recharge every 3-6 months to maintain battery health.
• Temperature Control: Avoid exposing the battery to extreme temperatures; optimal charging and usage temperature is between 0°C and 45°C (32°F to 113°F).
• Safety Check: Inspect for any signs of damage, swelling, or leakage; discontinue use immediately if any issues arise.
