Lead-carbon AGM
for partial-state-
of-charge duty.

Solar self-consumption batteries spend most of their life never fully charged. Standard AGM sulfates and dies in twelve to eighteen months. Lead-carbon negatives suppress sulfation across thousands of partial cycles.

PSoC life vs. AGM

Carbon-added negatives

Activated carbon in the negative active material suppresses sulfate crystallisation during partial state-of-charge cycling.

Solar self-consumption

PV systems with daily partial discharges and overnight recharges. The duty where AGM fails first.

Hybrid micro-grid

Behind-the-meter storage where charge windows are short and SoC rarely returns to 100%.

Recovers from sulfation

PSoC duty causes sulfate buildup over time. Lead-carbon design partially recovers between full charge events.

PSoC duty kills float-grade AGM. LC is built for it.

Lead-carbon AGM blends activated carbon into the negative active material. Carbon provides a non-faradaic charge pathway that reduces sulfate crystal growth during partial-state-of-charge cycling. EUROBAT classifies LC chemistry under the LL category for solar self-consumption duty. Tested per IEC 61427-1 for renewable energy storage.

LC series ships with PSoC cycle-life curves and recommended charge profiles for solar inverter integrators. The carbon-blend negative recovers over full equalisation, but most installs run for years on a partial-state programme. Application notes available via atbpower.com.
