The ePropulsion E60 is a 48 V LiFePO4 boat battery with a capacity of 3,072 Wh and a built-in HD display. The display shows the charge level, voltage, current, and any warnings, among other things. The battery was developed for electric propulsion and communicates with suitable ePropulsion motors.
Key features
- 3,072 Wh / 60 Ah at a nominal voltage of 51.2 V
- Maximum continuous discharge current of 70 A
- Theoretical maximum continuous power of approximately 3.58 kW at nominal voltage
- Capable of supporting one Navy 3.0 Evo at full power
- HD display with charge level, voltage, current, and alarm notifications
- Integrated battery management system for monitoring and protection
- Double-walled plastic housing and IP67 protection rating
- Up to 16 E60 batteries of the same model and age can be connected in parallel
- According to current manufacturer specifications: up to 3,000 charge cycles at 80% remaining State of Health (SoH). The actual service life depends on usage, temperature, and charging habits
Indicative runtime
The values below are theoretical calculation examples based on 3.072 kWh of nominal energy. Actual runtime will be shorter due to conversion losses, reserves, temperature, sailing resistance, and system settings.
| Continuous consumption | Theoretical runtime |
|---|---|
| 0.5 kW | approximately 6 hours and 9 minutes |
| 1.0 kW | approximately 3 hours and 4 minutes |
| 2.0 kW | approximately 1 hour and 32 minutes |
| 3.0 kW | approximately 1 hour and 1 minute |
Compatibility
The E60 is designed for suitable 48 V systems from the ePropulsion Spirit, Navy, and Pod series. The correct power and communication cables depend on the motor and installation. One E60 can supply approximately 3.58 kW continuously. Therefore, for a 6 kW motor, a battery bank that meets ePropulsion's system requirements is necessary.
Only E60 batteries of the same model and age may be connected in parallel. Series connection is not supported. When connecting in parallel, the correct bridging cables, communication cables, and a communication terminator are required.
