Description
The Sun Xtender PVX-2240T is a premium 6V deep-cycle AGM battery engineered for reliable off-grid and grid-tied solar and wind energy storage systems.
Key Features:
- VRLA-AGM Non-Spillable Construction: Eliminates the need to monitor or replenish water levels, making maintenance virtually hands-free.
- Pure Lead Calcium Grids with Thicker Plates: Delivers longer cycle life, increased reliability, and superior power output over standard industry builds.
- PolyGuard® Microporous Polyethylene Separators: Provides exclusive dual-layer insulation protecting positive plates against shorting, shock, and vibration.
- High-Impact Copolymer Polypropylene Housing: Thick end walls prevent bulging, while corrosion-resistant copper alloy T terminals come with silicon bronze bolts and washers.
- Hazmat Exempt Shipping: Ships without hazardous material restrictions, simplifying logistics and delivery.
The PVX-2240T features a low-impedance AGM design that allows for excellent charge acceptance. No current limit is required when using controlled voltage charging, making it highly compatible with modern solar charge controllers.
Built with pure lead calcium grids, the plates exceed industry-standard thickness for maximum durability. This construction ensures the battery performs reliably through deep discharge cycles in demanding renewable energy applications.
Sun Xtender has been engineering VRLA-AGM batteries since 1987, setting the standard for renewable energy storage. The PVX-2240T reflects decades of innovation, trusted by installers and system integrators across off-grid and grid-tied installations.
