💧 Electrolyte Maintenance

This is a serviceable lead-acid tubular battery, so electrolyte levels should be checked periodically.

For proper maintenance:

• Use only approved distilled or battery water when topping up
• Do not overfill the cells
• Keep terminals clean and properly tightened
• Avoid allowing the battery to remain deeply discharged for long periods
• Install in a ventilated location

Following the correct charging and maintenance procedures helps improve battery life.

🔗 Battery Bank Configuration

Multiple identical 12V batteries can be connected to create larger systems.

Examples include:

• 2 batteries in series: 24V 200Ah
• 4 batteries in series: 48V 200Ah
• 2 batteries in parallel: 12V 400Ah

All batteries in the same bank should ideally be of the same model, capacity, age and condition.

⚠️ Charging & Installation Notice

Before installation, confirm that the inverter or solar charge controller supports:

• 12V tubular lead-acid batteries
• The correct charging voltage
• Suitable charging current
• Appropriate low-voltage cut-off settings
• Correct cable sizes
• Suitable DC protection devices

Professional installation by a qualified solar technician is recommended.
