Phoenix TX-1600 Tubular Battery 160Ah Price in Pakistan

The Phoenix TX-1600 is a 12V, 160Ah flooded tall tubular battery from the TX Power Cube series, with 7 plates. The tall tubular build keeps the positive material locked inside tubes, which helps the battery cope with daily deep cycling from a UPS or solar inverter better than a flat-plate battery of the same size.

Backup time: a 12V 160Ah battery holds about 1920 watt-hours. Using only half of it (50% depth, which is kind to lead-acid) and allowing 85% inverter efficiency, the TX-1600 gives about 2.7 hours on a 300W load such as fans, lights and a router, and about 1.4 hours on a 600W load such as a fridge with two fans. That covers most evening power cuts for a small home.

Best use: a 1 kVA to 1.5 kVA UPS on one 12V battery, or a 2 kVA UPS when used as a 24V pair. It also works with a small 12V or 24V solar inverter in a home that runs fans, lights and a TV. It is a good middle choice for a small house or flat.

Maintenance and life: check the water every three to four weeks in hot months and top up with distilled water to the marked level; our guide (How to Check Battery Water and Top It Up Safely) explains it. Keep the battery in a shaded, airy place, because heat shortens the life of every lead-acid battery. Warranty terms were not given, so ask before ordering. Tubular life is explained in (How Long Does a Tubular Battery Last in Pakistan?). You can buy it from Syed Non Custom Solar.

Charging tip for this size: a 160Ah tubular takes several hours to refill after a deep outage, so set your UPS to its tubular or high-current charging mode if it has one. Two TX-1600s in series give 24V and about 3840 watt-hours stored, which is a handy bank for a 2 kVA hybrid solar inverter in a small house.

Among its siblings, the TX-1600 sits between the small 70Ah TX-700 and the 185Ah TX-1800. Interestingly, our data lists 7 plates for the TX-1600 and 5 for the TX-1800, so plate count alone does not decide capacity; the Ah rating is the better guide. Against lithium, the TX-1600 costs less up front but weighs more and needs water care, while lithium allows deeper use of its capacity. See (Lithium vs Tubular Battery: Which Is Better for Solar?) for a full comparison.
