Introduction
1.1 System Introduction
AlphaESS Storion-SMILE-T10 (incl. M4856-S, HV50056 and SMILE-T10-INV) can be
used in DC-coupled systems (mostly new installation), AC-coupled systems (mostly
retrofit) and Hybrid-coupled systems (mostly retrofit, and PV capacity-increase), as the
following scheme:
Figure 1 DC-coupled Storage System – Scheme

7 / 55
Figure 2 AC-coupled Storage System – Scheme
Figure 3 Hybrid-coupled Storage System – Scheme
CAUTION:
For the AC-/ Hybrid-coupled system, unlike DC, two power meters are to be
mounted.
In Germany some federal states require that only AC solutions be used if more
than 10 kWp capacity of PV is installed, the meters of grid company must be
also installed in the system as the following figure shows.

1.2 General Precautions
DANGER
Danger to life due to high voltages of the PV array, battery and electric shock.
When exposed to sunlight, the PV array generates dangerous DC voltage which will
be present in the DC conductors and the live components of the inverter. Touching
the DC conductors or the live components can lead to lethal electric shocks. If you
disconnect the DC connectors from the system under load, an electric arc may
occur leading to electric shock and burns.
➢Do not touch uninsulated cable ends.
➢Do not touch the DC conductors.
➢Do not open the inverter and battery.
➢Do not wipe the system with damp cloth.
➢Have the system installed and commissioned by qualified people with
appropriate skills only.
➢Prior to performing any work on the inverter or the battery pack,
disconnect the inverter from all voltage sources as described in this
document.

9 / 55
WARNING
Risk of chemical burns from electrolyte or toxic gases.
During standard operation, no electrolyte shall leak from the battery pack and no
toxic gases shall form. Even with careful manufacturing process, if the battery pack is
damaged or a fault occurs, it is possible that electrolyte may be leaked or toxic gases
formed.
➢Do not install the system in any environment of temperature below -10°C
or over 50°C and in which humidity is over 85%.
➢Do not touch the system with wet hands.
➢Do not put any heavy objects on top of the system.
➢Do not damage the system with sharp objects.
➢Do not install or operate the system in potentially explosive atmospheres
or areas of high humidity.
➢Do not mount the inverter and the battery pack in areas containing highly
flammable materials or gases.
➢If moisture has penetrated the system (e.g. due to a damaged enclosure),
do not install or operate the system.
➢Do not move the system when it is already connected with battery
modules.
➢Secure the system to prevent tipping with restraining straps in your vehicle.
➢The transportation of AlphaESS Storion-SMILE-T10 must be made by the
manufacturer or a qualified person. These instructions shall be recorded
and repeated.
➢A certified ABC fire extinguisher with minimum capacity of 2kg must be
carried along when transporting.
➢It is totally prohibited to smoke in the vehicle as well as close to the vehicle
when loading and unloading.
➢For the exchange of a battery module, please request for new hazardous
goods packaging if needed, pack it and let it be picked up by the suppliers.
➢In case of contact with electrolyte, rinse the affected areas immediately with
water and consult a doctor without delay.

10 / 55
CAUTION:
Risk of injury through lifting or dropping the system.
The inverter and battery are heavy. There is risk of injury if the inverter or battery is
lifted incorrectly or dropped during transport or when attaching to or removing
from the wall.
➢Lifting and transporting the inverter and battery must be carried out by
more than 1 person.

Installation
This Manual introduces the basic steps of how to install and set up AlphaESS Storion-
SMILE-T10
M4856-S is a sealed component with no access to battery terminals or cell
components within module.
NOTE: please pay attention to unpacking the battery, the worst case is that
some components could be damaged.
2.1 Installation Site and Environment
2.1.1 General
The M4856-S has two versions, one is indoor, and the other is outdoor. This SMILE-
T10 energy storage system (indoor version) can only be installed in an indoor
location. This SMILE-T10 energy storage system (outdoor version) can be installed in
both outdoor and an indoor location.
If SMILE-T10 system is installed in a room, it shall be located so that access to SMILE-
T10 is not obstructed by the structure of the building, fixtures and fittings within the
room.
SMILE-T10 adopts natural ventilation. The location should be clean, dry and
adequately ventilated. The room’s entry doors and panels shall open in the direction
of egress and allow unobstructed access to the SMILE-T10 for installation and
maintenance purposes.
The following location are not allowed for installation:
•habitable rooms;
•in ceiling spaces;
•wall cavities;
•on roofs not specifically deemed suitable;
•areas of access/egress;
•under stairways;
•under access walkways;
•sites where the freezing point is reached, like garages, carports or other
places;
•sites with humidity and condensation over 85%;
•sites which are salty and where humid air can penetrate;
