Epoch 24V 230Ah V2-T Elite LiFePO4 Battery (5.89kWh)

The T identifies the integrated Class-T source fuse. The C24230A-A uses a user-serviceable Eaton JJN-300 rated at 300A with a published 20kA interrupt rating at 160VDC. This high-interrupt fuse reduces fault energy at the battery outlet and saves installation space, but it does not replace the main disconnect, downstream conductor protection, branch fusing, or the rest of a code-compliant system design.

No. The fuse is replaceable through the protected service-access area. Isolate every source and load, open the main disconnect, verify the system is de-energized, identify and correct the fault, and replace the fuse only with the exact approved model and rating. Restore all covers and seals before returning the battery to service; qualified service is strongly recommended.

Yes, when installed with Epoch's specified communication harness and configuration. The battery communicates at 500kbit/s over CAN. Connect the designated grey RJ45 lead to the appropriate BMS-Can or configurable VE.Can port on a compatible Cerbo GX or Ekrano GX, set the port as instructed, enable DVCC, and select Epoch as the controlling BMS and battery monitor. Do not assume every generic RJ45 cable has the required battery-side pinout.

The current controlled V2-T installation manual supports up to two C24230A-A batteries in series or up to sixteen in parallel. Mixed series-parallel arrangements are not supported. Use identical batteries, closely match their open-circuit voltage before connection, use the prescribed DIP-switch and communication layout, and follow Epoch's current manual for the selected topology.

Sixteen 5.888kWh batteries provide approximately 94.2kWh of nominal stored energy and 3,680Ah at 24V nominal. Every battery output is a separate source and requires an engineered connection to common busbars, equal-length conductors, appropriate source and branch protection, secure mounting, communication configuration, and professional commissioning.

The battery includes a 153.6W heater controlled by the BMS. The controlled manual lists low-temperature charge protection at 0°C, heater activation during charging at 5°C, and heater deactivation at 10°C. Available incoming charge energy warms the cells before normal charging proceeds. Charging equipment must still be programmed correctly and provide enough current for heating and charging.

The enclosure is IP67 rated—dust-tight and tested for temporary immersion up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes when all seals and glands are correctly installed. IP67 is not permission for permanent submersion, pressure washing, or installation in standing water. Epoch's manual says a battery exposed to immersion, severe impact, damaged seals, or other abnormal conditions should be removed from service until evaluated.

At 25.6V nominal and 115A continuous discharge, the battery provides approximately 2.94kW of nominal DC output before inverter losses. Epoch markets it for properly engineered 3,000W-class systems. Final inverter sizing must account for efficiency, surge demand, cable voltage drop, ambient temperature, precharge requirements, downstream protection, and the battery's current limits.

No single component makes an entire installation ABYC compliant. The integrated high-interrupt Class-T fuse can support an ABYC-conscious marine protection design, but compliance depends on the complete system—including disconnect location, unfused conductor length, conductor ampacity, overcurrent protection, ignition-protection requirements where applicable, securement, routing, labeling, grounding, and qualified installation.

Epoch's app provides real-time visibility into state of charge, cell voltage, temperature, charge and discharge cycles, and system-health alerts. The local meter and external gauge provide additional physical status access. In a Victron-managed system, the GX device becomes the central view for battery and system data.

The controlled manual lists the C24230A-A at 20.86 inches long by 8.65 inches wide by 12.06 inches high, with a weight of 98.9 pounds. It uses M8 terminals with a published terminal torque of 12N·m (8.85lb-ft). Confirm compartment clearance, service access, cable bend radius, and mounting hardware before ordering.
