The Deka Solar Valve-

Regulated Gel Monobloc series offers reliable, versatile, maintenance-free power. The thixotropic gel enables these batteries to be completely spillproof providing many available options for installation. The gelled electrolyte gives more protection to the battery plates, and is better suited for deep cycle discharge. With longer discharge and less charging time, these batteries are ideal for many renewable energy applications.

IMPORTANT CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS: WARRANTY VOID IF OPENED

OR IMPROPERLY CHARGED. Do not install in a sealed container. Constant under or overcharging will damage any battery and shorten its life! Use a good constant potential, voltage-regulated charger. The open circuit voltage of a fully charged 12-volt battery is 12.8V at 77°F (25°C).

Batteries manufactured in polypropylene cases and covers.

Batteries manufactured with gray case / gray cover unless noted.

**Peak Rating - Maximum amount of amp-hours a battery can deliver at a specified rate

Cycle Life vs Depth of Discharge at +25°C (77°F)*

Cut-off parameters per charge & equalize intervals are application specific and will vary dependent upon site specific characteristics such as temperature, days of autonomy, array to load ratio, etc.
