1. Introduction
1.1 Product Description
The Century Lithium Pro C12-100XLi is 12.8V lithium-ion battery incorporating Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP
or LiFePO4) technology and is designed for recreational cyclic applications. It contains 4 cells connected in
series, equipped with an internal battery management system (BMS) to monitor each single prismatic cell for
correct operation of the battery, as well as the loads and charge source that are connected to the battery.
This LFP battery is suitable for replacement of deep cycle lead acid batteries, used in RV, camper trailer,
caravan, 4WD (AUX/boot), marine, and mobility applications. This LFP battery should not be used in any
applications other than those described in this user manual. It is important to read and follow the information
provided before installation, operation, and maintenance of this battery.

2. Safety
Warning! Risk of fire, explosion, or burn.
Failure to install or use according to the instructions in this manual may result in early battery
failure or cause risk of electrical or fire damage to the battery and surrounding property and may
cause personal injuries.
The Century Lithium Pro LFP battery is designed with an integrated BMS to prevent internal damage to
the battery under various conditions. When this occurs in connected equipment, power can be abruptly
interrupted to the system which may cause undesirable consequence. The system installer must understand
the automatic safety shutdown functions of the BMS and shall assume all responsibility and liability for any
damages if these functions are not properly applied.
Do’s
• The battery must be kept in the original packaging until use.
• Wear personal protective equipment (eye protection and gloves) before handling.
• Keep sparks and open flames away from the battery.
• Use insulated tools when working on or with the battery.
• Secure connections with correct torque setting.
• Only connect the charger in line with recommended settings. Always disconnect the charger when working
on batteries.
• Charge the battery before installing.
• Remove charger immediately and contact the dealer if any abnormal smell or noise while on charge or when
a discharge is detected.
Don't s
• Do not drop, impact, or puncture the battery. The battery must be protected from mechanical impacts.
• Do not store the battery below 30% SOC.
• Do not use for cranking/starting applications.
• Do not install under the bonnet or engine compartment.
• Do not use the battery outside the specified temperature range.
• Do not expose to direct sunlight for extended period. During storage, the battery must be protected from
direct sunlight.
• Do not submerse in water or expose to rain for any extended periods. The battery should be stored in a cool
and dry environment.
• Do not install near heat source or flammable materials.
• Do not disassemble or modify the outer casing of the battery.
• Do not dispose of in fire, household waste or landfill
• Do not connect LFP batteries from different manufacturers, different brands, capacity, size, or type in series
or parallel.
• Over-voltage charging, incorrect wiring, reverse polarity connection or short circuits of the terminals may
damage the battery.

3. Handling and Installation
• Before connecting the battery, check that the battery voltage is ≥13.3V. Recharge as required.
• Ensure that the cable connecting the battery terminals is correctly sized and in length.
• Ensure that the bolts on the terminals are firmly fastened to the recommended torque of 10~12Nm to avoid
loosening during operation.
• Ensure the maximum output voltage of any charging device connected to the battery does not exceed 14.6V
before connecting. Recommended charging voltage is 14.4V
• Side mounting with terminals on the upper side is acceptable but not recommended.
Where feasible, always install upright to optimise the performance under a dynamic condition
such as vibration.
• Fully charge each battery before use and if connecting them in series or parallel.
• When connecting in series or in parallel, ensure the capacity and voltage between each battery is consistent.
Any variance should be below 100mV. Do not connect different batches, types, old or new batteries in
series or parallel.
• To optimise batteries with balanced cells, it is advisable not to mix batteries from a different batch for series
or parallel connection. Each battery is labelled with a sequential production code i.e., number N-1 (such as
1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4,) which shows the selected cells they are grouped with during the manufacturing process.
The first number is the batch number, and the second number is the sequence within the batch.
• The battery can be connected in series up to 4 batteries, or in parallel up to 2 batteries. For example, four
12V100Ah batteries connected in series can create a 48V100Ah battery bank; and 2 batteries connected in
parallel can create a 12V200Ah battery bank (note: maximum discharge current remains 100A).
• Parallel batteries can only increase the capacity of the battery system and increase the working time of the
connected electrical devices. However, the maximum or peak discharge current can only be in accordance
with a single battery (100A).
• The total maximum configuration in a string of series and parallel (i.e., 4S2P) is 8 batteries.
• Due to small variations in new LFP battery capacity, LFP batteries may be slightly unbalanced when
unpacked for multiple connection in series or parallel. BMS interruption of charging is likely to occur during
the initial charging which is considered normal. If the charger trips out, reset the charger until charging
continues normally. For best result, each battery should be charged individually before being connected in
series or parallel. Contact Century Yuasa Batteries for any further assistance.

4. Operation Use
Caution: Improper use will cause irreversible damage to the battery and could cause battery
swelling and smoke in extreme cases.
4.1 Operating Conditions
The Century LFP battery is in sleep mode when not in use to reduce self-discharge. It will go into sleep mode
after 24 hours when the charge or discharge current is below 1A.
A charge or discharge will activate the battery from this sleep mode:
• Charge activation – Connect a charger with 1.2V above the battery voltage
• Discharge activation – Connect a load (<5kΩ)
The following operating ambient temperatures and humidity must be followed:
• Charging at between 0°C~45°C
• Discharging at between -20°C~55°C
• Ambient humidity: ≤85%
Reduce current when charging battery at temperatures <10°C and >35°C
