1. Introduction
This manual is intended to provide information on how to operate a Flux X-series 80V battery and maximize its
productivity, longevity, and cost saving features.

The lithium-ion cells are large format lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) cells. They are clamped together and restrained to
a blade to protect against shock and vibration. The cell interconnections are flexible bus bars providing solid and vibration
resistant connections.

2.2 Initial Startup
To turn the battery on, press the power button. A green light will illuminate indicating the battery is on. The battery will
click and take approximately 1-5 minutes before it can be charged or used.
Figure 2: ON/OFF switch located on the charge port side of battery.
The battery should be plugged in until fully charged and should remain plugged in or be turned off until installation and
deployment in equipment. There is no danger of overcharging the battery as the onboard Battery Management System
(BMS) communicates with the external charger and efficiently charges and balances the cells. It is important to turn the
battery off if it is not in use and awaiting deployment.
To maintain battery health, keep the battery plugged in whenever it is not in use. Should you completely discharge the
battery, plug the battery in for charging immediately after use. This will help maintain optimum battery health.
2.2.1 Installation
To install safely:
1. Use an approved lifting device and chains (or straps) to lift the battery using the handle cutouts on each side.
2. Slowly place the battery into the battery compartment with the battery power cables oriented appropriately to the
ground support truck.
3. Connect the battery main power cables and communication cable (if applicable) to the truck.
2.3 Charger
Use only a Flux Power approved charger for charging of all X80 batteries. Contact Flux Power for a list of approved
chargers.
