Introduction
Introduction
1.1 System Introduction
AlphaESS Storion-SMILE-T10 (incl. M4856-S, HV50056 and SMILE-T10-INV) can be
applied 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:

Introduction
Figure 3 Hybrid-coupled Storage System – Scheme
CAUTION:
For the AC-/ Hybrid-coupled system, unlike DC, two power meters are to be
mounted.
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 the
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.
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. Despite careful construction, if the Battery Pack is damaged
or a fault occurs, it is possible that electrolyte may be leaked or toxic gases formed.

Introduction
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 an instructed personal. 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.
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.

This Manual introduces the basic steps 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 for 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 another 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 an
outdoor or an indoor location.
Where SMILE-T10 systems are installed within a room, 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;
earthquake areas –additional security measures are required here;
sites that are higher than 3000 meters above the sea level;
sites with explosive atmosphere;
sites with direct sunlight;
sites with extreme change of ambient temperature;
wet rooms;
sites with highly flammable materials or gases; or

Installation
sites with a potentially explosive atmosphere;
2.1.2 Restricted Locations
Wherethe SMILE-T10 is located on orwithin 300mm ofthe wall or structure separating
it from the habitable room, the barrier shall extend —
(i) 1000 mm beyond the vertical sides of the SMILE-T10;
(ii) 300 mm above the SMILE-T10; and
(iii) to the extent of the bottom of the SMILE-T10.
Please refer to Figure 9.
Figure 9 Distancelimit of Installation to Neighboring Objects
Where the top of the SMILE-T10 is within 300 mm of the ceiling or structure above the
SMILE-T10, the ceiling or structure surface shall be suitably non-combustible for an
area of 600 mm past the extremities of the SMILE-T10.
Where more than 4 batteries are installed, some batteries shall be installed beside,
distance between two rows batteries shall be not less than 100 mm
SMILE-T10 shall be mounted with the highest point no greater than 2.2 m above the
floor or platform.

Figure 13 Placing Battery
Step 4: Confirm the installation place at first.
Push the battery against the wall and confirm the location of the battery with a
horizontal ruler.
Pack the PE bag on the battery to block out the dust before drilling.
Please drill four holes (two on each side) directly on the wall at the marking positions
of the brackets with an impact drill (bit φ 8.0mm, length 20cm), and the depth of each
hole is about 7 cm.
