What is ABYC? What Does Compliance Mean for Consumers?

What is ABYC? The American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing and promoting safety standards for boat design, construction, maintenance, and operation. Its primary goal is to enhance the reliability and performance of boats. The standards are referenced by the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Coast Guard. A USCG/ABYC Risk Mitigation Webinar report on May 2, 2024, revealed that boats certified to ABYC standards are 43% to 47% less likely to be involved in certain types of accidents, demonstrating the effectiveness of ABYC standards in preventing potential hazards that lead to boat accidents.

What is ABYC E-13? The ABYC E-13 standard, effective August 1, 2023, is one of the many standards developed by the American Boat and Yacht Council. It specifically addresses the manufacturing, selection, and installation of lithium marine batteries. This standard includes requirements for Battery Management Systems (BMS), installation locations and methods, waterproof and fire protection measures, overcurrent protection, and thermal runaway prevention, ensuring the safety of lithium batteries in marine applications.

What Does This Mean for Consumers? LiTime's marine LiFePO4 batteries meeting the ABYC E-13 standard signifies superior manufacturing capabilities and enhanced user safety. By using LiTime outboard motor batteries, trolling motor batteries, and cranking batteries certified to ABYC E-13, users benefit from professional safety guarantees and potential insurance cost reductions due to adherence to recognized standards.

ABYC E-13 Lithium Battery Standard and LiTime LiFePO4 Batteries

In six key aspects, the ABYC E-13 lithium battery standard is relevant to users:

1. All battery systems are recommended to have a BMS.

2. The BMS should protect against overcharge, over-discharge, overheating, overcurrent, and short circuits.

3. The battery ought to pass at least one standard test such as UL, IEC, or SAE.

4. The battery and its system components should be waterproof.

5. The battery should be quickly and safely accessible and operable in emergencies without tools.

6. Lithium battery systems should be installed, commissioned, and maintained according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

Features of LiTime Lithium Marine Batteries:

1. They are equipped with a BMS protection system, offering five basic protections: overcharge, over-discharge, overheating, overcurrent, and short circuit.

2. The LiTime BMS provides 20 layers of battery protection, including but not limited to 500A/1S discharge, automatic recovery after overload protection (30 seconds), pre-charge function, moisture resistance, and salt spray protection (specific to the battery model).

3. LiTime batteries have passed multiple standard tests including UL1973, FCC, CE, RoHS, and UN38.3 (specific to the battery model).

4. LiTime marine batteries are certified for IP65 or IP67 waterproofing and splash-proofing.

5. LiTime Bluetooth series batteries feature wireless Bluetooth operation, supporting battery shutdown and power status checks via mobile phone.

6. LiTime provides professional technical support and online services to guide users in correct battery installation.

The comparison above shows that LiTime marine LiFePO4 batteries closely align with the key elements of the ABYC E-13 standard. This ensures user safety from a design perspective, preventing battery fires and other accidents, while also providing installation guidelines to reduce user liability in potential accidents.

Focusing on user needs, LiTime continues to innovate, launching two new marine battery models this year, specifically designed for electric outboard motors [https://www.litime.com/collections/marine-motor-batteries?utm_source=PR&utm_medium=NEWS&utm_campaign=ABYC_liTime+marine+motor+batteries+page] and trolling motors [https://www.litime.com/collections/trolling-motor-batteries?utm_source=PR&utm_medium=NEWS&utm_campaign=ABYC_liTime+trolling+motor+batteries+page], both meeting ABYC E-13 standards.

With LiTime Bluetooth 5.0 technology, users can control power status via mobile apps, upgrading batteries to smart systems. Utilizing LiTime's unique BMS technology and IP65 waterproof and dustproof design, the batteries include low-temperature charging cutoff functions, offering 20+ layers of battery protection and quality certifications such as UL1973, FCC, CE, RoHS, and UN38.3, fundamentally reducing risks of fire, leakage, and charging under low temperatures. Both batteries are Group 31 size, fitting the original battery trays on boats for easy replacement of old lead-acid batteries.
