Introduction

RV12200-B100 is a lithium iron phosphate battery module. With a standard BCI group size, it is designed to replace deep cycle lead-acid batteries. The battery is perfect for RV, marine (boats),electric vehicles (EV), robots, renewable energy and other off-grid applications.

The product has the following advantages.

• Long Cycle Life
  More than 4,500 cycles at a depth of discharge of 80%.

• High Security
  The built-in advanced BMS manages charging and discharging status, helps in balancing the individual cells, and ensures intelligent automatic protection against over voltage, over current, over discharge, over temperature.

• Strong Environmental Adaptability
  ‘With the built-in heating film, the battery can be heated under extreme low tempera ture environment automatically to ensure the normal use of the battery.

• Low Self-discharge Loss
  The battery can be stored for more than 2 months when SoC is 0, and more than 6 months when SoC between 20%-100%.

• High Discharge Efficiency
  Available for 0.5 C-rate continuous operation and up to 1 C-rate instantaneous discharge.

• Flexible Connection in Parallel and Series
  Supports up to 4 in series and 4 in parallel (Max 4S4P) to build a 48V 400Ah battery system for 20.48kWh energy and max. 20.48kW load power.

•  Lightweight & Small Size
  Half the the weight of a 12V 200Ah lead acid battery, but equivalent in energy. It’s easier to carry, faster to charge, and more convenient to use.

• Remote Monitoring via APP
  The built-in Bluetooth module enables remote monitoring on mobile devices in real time.

Charging

The battery supports solar panel charging, grid power charging, and generator charging.
Please charge the battery with a battery charger or charge controller that is compatible with the lithium iron phosphate battery.

Caution

• Add a pre-charge resistance to avoid mosfet damage if the inductance of the charging device is too large.
• When the Battery Management System (BMS) is in protection mode, charge the battery immediately with a LiFePO4 battery charger (voltage will be 14.6 V) to wake up the BMS. DO NOT use a lead acid charger in this case.

‘When to charge the battery?
Charge the battery after each use OR charge the battery when it has been discharged up to 80% DOD (20% SOC).
Caution

• Disconnect the battery from loads and charge it immediately when the BMS disconnects from the battery due to low voltage.
• Charge the battery within 12 hours after the battery is fully discharged. Otherwise, the battery will have irreversible damage.

Charging Temperature

-32°F to 131°F (0°Cto 55°C)
Note

• Optimal charging temperature: 50°F to 104°F (10°C to 40°C) .
• If the ambient temperature is out of the charging temperature range, the battery stops operating to protect itself, and it cannot be charged. If the temperature falls below -32°F (0°C), and you need to use the battery, please enable the self-heating function of the battery via Bluetooth, and charge it after its temperature returns to charging temperature range.

Charging Time
It takes 2 hours to fully charge a battery with a current of 50 A.

Discharging

The battery discharges at a constant current of 100A(MAX) until the battery voltage reaches 10.8V.

Caution

• Do not continuously discharge a battery with extremely low voltage.
• Charge the battery within 12 hours after the battery is fully discharged. Otherwise, the battery will have irreversible damage.
• Add a pre-charge resistance to avoid mosfet damage if the inductance of the charging device is too large.

Note

• It is recommended to use the battery with the device which has a low voltage disconnect function.
•  The battery can be discharged to 100% of their capacity. However, in order to optimize battery performance and avoid BMS disconnecting the battery, it is recommended to limit the discharge to 80%.

Charging Temperature
-4 °F ~ 140 °F (-20 °C ~ 60 °C)

Pre-Installation Check

Caution

• Make sure all the battery terminals are disconnected before wiring, installing or removing the battery.
• To prevent electric shock, please remove watches, bracelets, rings and other conductive items (if any) and wear insulated gloves and protective goggles before installation.

Battery Installation

1. (Optional) Activate the battery.
   Activate the battery with a charge current greater than 1A and measure the terminal voltage to validate before using the battery for the first time.

2.  Place the battery in the designated area.
   The area where the battery is installed needs to be kept dry and stable, away from water and fire sources, and the temperature and humidity of the area shall be suitable for battery use.

3.  Fix the battery modules tight.
   If the battery is placed on a moving object (eg. car), please fix the battery and the moving object with a pressure strip in the horizontal or vertical direction.

4. Connect the cables.

Note
When installing the battery, the tiny sparks generated during the connection will not harm humans or equipment.

Battery Installation

Single Battery

Multiple Batteries
Note

• Check if the voltage difference between the batteries is less than 0.1 VDC. If not, fully charge the batteries individually to rebalance. Otherwise, overcurrent protection may be triggered.
• Do not mix batteries of different brands, types, models or life spans.
• In order to prolong the life span of the batteries, please make sure the length, diameter and internal resistance of the power cables are the same when using multiple batteries.

1. Connecting the Batteries in Parallel
   

Why Parallel Connection?
To increase the overall battery capacity while keeping the battery voltage the same.
Connection Steps:

1. Connect the Positive Terminals of the batteriesin sequence..
2. Connect the Negative Terminals of the batteries in sequence.
3. Finally, connect the Negative Terminal of the first battery and the Positive
   Terminal of the last battery to the system.

• Dip to 16 batteries can be conected in parallel

2. Connecting the Batteries in Series
   

Why Series Connection?
To increase the overall battery voltage while keeping the capacity the same.
Connection Steps:

1. Connect the Positive Terminal of the first battery to the Negative Terminal of the second battery.

2. Connect the Positive Terminal of the second battery to the Negative
   Terminal of the third battery, and so on.

3.  Finally, connect the Negative Terminal of the first battery and the Positive
   Terminal of the last battery to the system.

Series Configuration| Recommended Charge Voltage Value (VDC)| Recommended Discharge Voltage Value (VDC)
---|---|---
1S| 14~ 14.6| 10.8 ~ 14.6
2S| 28~ 29.2| 21.6 ~ 29.2
