According to the results of expert research, a little LiFePO4 is enough to achieve 1000 cycles of soft packing with a capacity retention of 86.5%.LiFePO4 battery The full name of lithium iron phosphate lithium ion battery refers to a lithium ion battery using lithium iron phosphate as a positive electrode material. Now, the LiFePO4 battery has a better and better prospect in the global market, and is used in more and more places in people’s lives, so let’s discuss “what is the LiFePO4 battery and why it is used more and more in life”.Since there are many types of LiFePO4 batteries, let’s briefly discuss one of them first—12V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery pack 32700-4S17P.

What Is The LiFePO4 Battery Pack 32700-4S17P

1. What is the 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery Pack 32700-4S17P?

As you seen,the 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery pack 32700-4S17P’s dimension is 328*172*215*220mm.From the name, we can know the nominal voltage and nominal capacity is 12.8V and 100Ah. Next, let me detail other information about it. Its battery cell is 3.2V 32700 6Ah and its weight is 13.1Kg, which is not very light. The main function is solar energy storage, which is now widely used in new energy vehicle industry, urban power grid, UPS power supply, startup power and other fields.

2. Why is the 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery Pack 32700-4S17P so widely used ?

(1)High safety
The P-O bond in 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery Pack 32700-4S17P is strong and difficult to decompose. Even at high temperatures or when overloaded, the structure does not break down and heat up or form strong oxidizing agents such as lithium cobaltate, so it has a good safety profile. According to the study, in practice there was a small probability of ignition but not a single case of explosion, while in experiments with overcharging using a high-voltage charge that exceeded its own discharge voltage by several times, it was still found to be explosive. Nevertheless, the safety of LiCoO2 batteries compared to conventional liquid electrolytes was significantly improved.
(2)Long life expectancy
Long-life lead acid batteries have a life of approximately 300 cycles to 500 cycles, while the 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery 32700-4S17P has a life of over 2000 cycles on a standard charge (5 hours). When this is taken into account, the performance-to-price ratio is theoretically more than 4 times that of lead-acid batteries.
(3)Large capacity
Often the batteries in the full capacity is not fully discharged from the working conditions, the capacity will quickly drop below the rated capacity value, this phenomenon is called the memory effect. This phenomenon is called the memory effect. The 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery Pack 32700-4S17P can be charged and used at any time, regardless of its condition, without having to be discharged and then recharged.
(4)Light weight
The volume of a battery with the same capacity is 2/3 the volume of a lead acid battery and 1/3 the weight of a lead acid battery.
(5)Environmental Protection
The batteries are generally considered to be heavy and precious metal free (NiMH batteries require precious metals), non-toxic (certified and approved by SGS), non-polluting and compliant with European RoHS regulations, making them environmentally friendly. An important reason why this battery is popular in the industry is the consideration for the environment. However, one thing should be emphasized, the battery belongs to the new energy industry, but it is not immune to the problem of heavy metal pollution.
(6)Good high temperature performance
The 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery Pack 32700-4S17P thermal peak up to 350℃-500℃, while lithium manganate and lithium cobaltate are only around 200℃. Wide operating temperature range (-20℃-60℃) with high temperature resistance Lithium iron phosphate battery pack thermal peak up to 350℃ – 500℃, while lithium permanganate and cobalt acid only up to around 200℃.

All above is the answer to what the LiFePO4 battery is and why it is used widely. If you choose them, you will bring unexpected gains. By the way, Shenzhen Youtek Technology Company is its distributor, if you want to buy, you can send an e-mail to info@unitek-corp.com to consult it.
