When to pour water in the battery
Highlights
- If the battery is not using more, then change its water in 3 months
- If you are using more then change every 1 to 1.5 months
- Always wear gloves and glasses while checking the battery
New Delhi. The problem of power cuts becomes common as soon as summer comes and in such a situation, the inverter becomes an essential part of every house. But have you ever thought whether your inverter battery is working properly or not? Actually, many people do not understand when water should be poured in the battery. The result of this is that the battery starts to deteriorate gradually and the power backup decreases. The water that contains the inverter battery is not ordinary water, but the distilled water, ie clean and mineral-free water. Its job is to maintain the chemical reaction inside the battery, so that the battery can be charged and supplied electricity if needed. If this water decreases, then the battery starts drying up and its performance starts falling.
Most people open the battery when the inverter stops giving backup or there is a problem in charging. But by then it is too late. There is a right time to pour water in the battery and if it is followed, the battery works for years.
If the power cuts are reduced in your area and the inverter is not used much, then it is enough to check battery water every 2-3 months. At the same time, if the inverter runs every day in summer, then check the level of water every 1 to 1.5 months. Every battery has a mark, minimum and maximum. If the water goes down from the minimum, then add distilled water immediately. Keep in mind, the water should neither be too much nor less, just between the two marks.
Keep these things in mind, otherwise the loss is fixed
Always use distilled water only. Tap water can damage the battery. Always wear gloves and glasses while checking the battery. If the battery is getting very hot, then get a specialist checked without delay. Do not open the battery cover unnecessarily. Finally, a advice: Take care of the battery and use electricity to be relaxed.
