Battery Volt Deep Cycle VPRO SOLAR 12V 160Ah VRLA maintenance-free (model 30479)

The Volt VPRO SOLAR 12V 160Ah VRLA deep cycle battery is a lead‑acid, maintenance‑free energy storage solution designed for prolonged discharge cycles and stationary applications. With a nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity of 160 Ah, this sealed battery is intended for solar installations, off‑grid systems, backup power and telecom equipment where reliable sustained energy delivery is required. The VRLA construction eliminates the need for regular electrolyte maintenance and supports installation in enclosed spaces when ventilation follows local safety recommendations.

Advantages

The battery offers long cycle life optimized for deep discharge and recovery, making it suitable for repeated charge–discharge regimes typical of renewable energy systems. Its valve‑regulated sealed design reduces maintenance needs and leakage risk compared with flooded lead‑acid types. Robust construction and stable output under varying loads provide consistent performance for inverters, charge controllers and stationary power systems. Compatibility with common 12 V system components simplifies integration into existing setups.

Suitable for

• Solar photovoltaic energy storage (off‑grid and hybrid systems)
• Backup power for homes, small businesses and critical devices
• Telecommunications and network equipment requiring standby or sustained power
• Inverter and generator-supported stationary systems

How to use

Install the battery according to manufacturer and local safety guidelines, ensuring secure mounting and adequate access for inspection. Connect to charge controllers, inverters or DC loads with appropriately sized cabling and recommended terminal connections for 12 V systems. Use a compatible charger or solar charge controller with proper charge profiles for lead‑acid deep cycle batteries to avoid undercharge or overcharge. Observe ambient temperature limits and allow batteries to cool before performing any service or connection changes.

Usage recommendations

For best long‑term performance, keep the battery charged when not in use, avoid deep discharges beyond recommended depth of discharge for your system, and ensure charging voltage and temperature compensation match lead‑acid deep cycle requirements. Store in a dry, ventilated area and follow local regulations for handling and recycling of lead‑acid batteries.
