Looking after an inverter battery for home takes a few minutes at regular intervals, not daily effort. This guide lists what to check on an Okaya tubular inverter battery, how often, and when to call for service.
Okaya states that most of its inverter batteries need only 1 to 2 water top-ups a year. Between top-ups, regularly check the water-level indicators, terminals and visible condition of the battery. Always follow the product manual for your model.
Each Okaya inverter battery has six ceramic water-level indicators, one for each cell, so you can read the level without guessing. Check them at regular intervals and top up only when a cell shows a low level. SJT batteries have all water inlets on one side in a 6x1 layout, and Okaya's SJT product page lists a vent-plug and float design.
Use the water specified in the product manual or by Okaya Care for your model. Do not top up beyond the level shown by the indicators.
1. Terminals: keep them clean and the connections tight. Ask Okaya Care or your dealer if you are unsure how to clean them.
2. Container: look for cracks, leaks or swelling.
3. Placement: keep the battery in a dry, well-ventilated spot, as the installation guidance advises.
4. Wiring: do not rewire the battery terminals yourself unless you are trained. Installation is typically arranged through your Okaya dealer.
For placement and setup, read the inverter battery installation guide.
Yes. The inverter charges the battery, so a battery that is mismatched with the inverter's system voltage will not charge or back up as expected. The system voltage decides the battery count: one battery for a 12V inverter, two for 24V and four for 48V. When identical batteries are connected in series, the system voltage increases while the Ah rating stays the same.
Care helps the battery reach its expected service life, but life also depends on usage, power-cut frequency and the inverter used. Okaya's category FAQ gives a typical service life of 4 to 6 years with proper care; inverter battery lifespan explains what changes it.
Total warranty is 48 to 66 months depending on the model, made up of a flat period and a pro-rata period. Register the warranty on Okaya's paperless warranty registration page and keep your purchase details. If the backup drops sharply or you see damage, book a complaint with Okaya Care.
