Product Overview
Model: DS-PA-Battery
Who This Is For
For installers and property owners who have deployed a Hikvision AX Pro alarm hub and need to maintain system operation during power outages. The DS-PA-Battery is a 4610mAh lithium backup battery designed specifically for AX Hub compatibility, delivering up to 12 hours of standby support when mains power is interrupted. This makes it a practical choice for residential and small commercial installations where alarm continuity during blackouts, power faults, or deliberate power interference is a compliance or insurance requirement. If your AX Pro hub is installed in a location that sees occasional grid instability - rural properties, older commercial buildings, or sites without a generator - this battery ensures the alarm system does not go offline at the moment it matters most.
What This Actually Does
12-Hour Standby Support
When mains power drops, the DS-PA-Battery keeps the AX Hub running for up to 12 hours in standby mode. That covers the vast majority of short-term outages and gives time for grid restoration or manual response without the alarm system going dark.
4610mAh Lithium Cell
The lithium chemistry provides a higher energy density than older lead-acid backup options, meaning more runtime in a compact form factor that fits within the AX Hub housing without external wiring or bulky enclosures.
AX Hub Compatibility
Designed and rated specifically for the Hikvision AX Pro hub family. It connects directly to the hub's internal battery connector - no adapters, no modifications. The hub manages charge and discharge automatically, so there is no additional configuration required after installation.
Power Fault Protection
A backup battery also addresses a common tamper scenario - cutting power to disable an alarm before a break-in. With the DS-PA-Battery installed, cutting mains power does not silence the system, closing a significant vulnerability in sites without any battery backup.
Who Buys This Model
- AX Pro Hub owners completing an initial install: Installers who have commissioned a Hikvision AX Pro system and need to add battery backup before handover, particularly where insurance or monitoring station requirements specify a minimum backup duration.
- Rural and regional property owners: Sites on grid connections that experience regular short outages benefit directly from 12-hour standby - enough runtime to cover most unplanned interruptions without the alarm system going offline.
- Security integrators replacing aged backup batteries: Installers returning to existing AX Hub installations where the original battery has degraded and no longer holds a usable charge, needing a direct-fit lithium replacement.
- Commercial site managers with compliance requirements: Small business owners or strata managers who need to demonstrate that their alarm system has documented backup power capability for insurance or monitoring contracts.
Honest Assessment
The DS-PA-Battery does one thing well: it keeps an AX Pro hub running when mains power is not available. The 4610mAh lithium cell delivers up to 12 hours of standby runtime in a compact internal form factor, with no external enclosure or additional wiring needed. The hub manages charging automatically, which simplifies installation and ongoing maintenance. This is a straightforward, purpose-built component for the AX Pro ecosystem - it is not a universal battery and will not work with other alarm panel brands or Hikvision product lines outside the AX Hub family. It also provides standby runtime rather than full alarm-active runtime, so actual duration under triggered-alarm conditions will be shorter than the 12-hour standby figure. If your site requires certified backup power for a monitored alarm system, check your monitoring station's minimum battery specifications before purchasing. Available through Security Australia as part of the Hikvision AX Pro accessories range.
Before You Buy
Compatibility Note: The DS-PA-Battery is rated for Hikvision AX Hub (AX Pro) panels specifically. Confirm your hub model before ordering - this battery is not compatible with Hikvision's older DS-19 or DS-PHA series panels, nor with third-party alarm controllers. If you are replacing a worn battery, check the original cell's connector type matches before installation.
Quick Fit Check
- Good match if: You have a Hikvision AX Pro hub installed or on order and need internal battery backup to meet monitoring station or insurance requirements for minimum standby duration.
- Good match if: You are servicing an existing AX Pro installation where the original lithium cell has aged and the hub is reporting a low-battery or battery-fault condition.
- You may need a different model if: Your site runs a different alarm panel brand or an older Hikvision panel outside the AX Pro family - check the full range of Hikvision alarm accessories on securityaustralia.com.au for the correct battery type for your specific hub model.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
Real-World Scenarios
How It Compares
- Choose this if: You are running a Hikvision AX Pro hub and need an internal, direct-fit lithium backup battery with up to 12 hours of standby support - no external enclosure or additional hardware required.
- You may need a different model if: Your alarm panel is outside the AX Pro family - different Hikvision alarm ranges and third-party panels require their own specific backup batteries. Check the full alarm accessories range on securityaustralia.com.au to confirm the correct option for your panel.
- Pairs well with: Hikvision AX Pro wireless detectors, AX Pro keypads, and AX Pro siren accessories to complete a fully supported wireless alarm system with genuine backup power coverage.
Common Questions
-
Will this battery work with my Hikvision AX Pro hub?
Yes, provided your panel is in the Hikvision AX Pro (AX Hub) family. The DS-PA-Battery is designed specifically for this range and connects directly to the hub's internal battery connector. If you are unsure of your exact hub model, check the label on the panel housing before ordering. -
Does the 12-hour standby figure apply when the alarm is actively triggered?
No. The 12-hour figure is a standby rating, measured with the system in armed-but-quiet mode. When the alarm is actively triggered - sirens sounding, communicators transmitting - current draw increases significantly and actual runtime will be shorter. For sites where extended triggered-alarm runtime is a requirement, discuss your specific needs with the team at Security Australia before specifying the battery. -
Do I need to configure anything in the AX Pro hub after installing this battery?
No. The AX Pro hub manages battery charging and discharge automatically. Once the DS-PA-Battery is connected to the internal battery connector, the hub recognises it and begins managing it without any additional configuration or software setup required. -
Is the DS-PA-Battery compatible with older Hikvision alarm panels like the DS-19 or DS-PHA series?
No. The DS-PA-Battery is rated for the AX Hub (AX Pro) product family only. Older Hikvision alarm panels use different battery formats and connectors. Installing an incompatible battery can result in it not being recognised by the panel or not charging correctly. -
How do I know when the battery needs replacing?
The AX Pro hub monitors battery health and will generate a low-battery or battery-fault event when the cell falls below usable capacity. This event is logged in the hub and can be pushed as a notification through the Hik-Connect app or relayed to a monitoring station. Lithium cells in alarm panels typically last 3 to 5 years depending on charge cycle frequency and ambient temperature. -
Will this battery satisfy my alarm monitoring station's backup power requirement?
It may, but confirm with your monitoring station first. Many Australian monitoring stations specify a minimum backup duration - commonly 4 or 8 hours - and require it to be met by a manufacturer-rated component. The DS-PA-Battery provides up to 12 hours of standby, which covers most standard requirements, but individual monitoring station contracts vary and some may have additional specifications beyond runtime alone.
