2. Introduction
Phantom-X1 is an high voltage Battery storage system based on lithium iron phosphate battery, is
one of new energy storage products developed and produced by Pylontech, it can be used to
support reliable power for various types of equipments and systems. Phantom-X1 is especially
suitable for application scene of high power, limited installation space, restricted load-bearing
and long cycle life.
Phantom-X1 has 2 levels BMS (battery management system）, which can manage and monitor
cells information including voltage, current and temperature. What’s more, BMS can balance
cells charging and discharging to extend cycle life. Multiple batteries can connected in parallel
to expand capacity and power in parallel for larger capacity and longer power supporting
duration requirements.
2.1 features
The whole module is non-toxic, non-polluting and environmentally friendly;
Cathode material is made from LiFePO4 with safety performance and long cycle life;
Battery management system (BMS)has protection functions including over-discharge,
over-charge, over-current and high/low temperature;
The system can automatically manage charge and discharge state and balance current
and voltage of each cell;
Flexible configuration, multiple battery modules can be in serial for expanding voltage and
capacity.
Adopted self-cooling mode rapidly reduced system entire noise;
The module has less self-discharged, up to 6 months without charging ion shelf; no memory
effect, excellent performance of shallow charge and discharge;
Working temperature range is from 0℃to 50℃, with excellent discharge performance and
cycle life;
Small size and light weight, standard of 19-inch embedded designed module is comfortable
for installation and maintenance;
Caution: Phantom-X1 without soft-start circuit. So must choose the Inverter, which has soft-start

Grounding:
The Phantom-X1 modules’is grounding based on metal direct
touch between the module’s surface and rack’s surface. So it
needn’t grounding cables at all. If uses normal rack, it can remove
the paint at the corresponding place. Or install a grounding cable
to the grounding point of the modules.

3.4 Installation Location
Make sure that the installation location meets the
following conditions:
The area is completely water proof.
The floor is flat and level.
There are no flammable or explosive materials.
The ambient temperature is within the range
from 0°C to 50°C.
The temperature and humidity is maintained at
a constant level.
There is minimal dust and dirt in the area.
CAUTION
If the ambient temperature is outside the operating
range, the battery pack stops operating to protect
itself. The optimal temperature range for the battery
pack to operate is 0°C to 50°C. Frequent exposure
to harsh temperatures may deteriorate the
performance and life of the battery pack.
Installation
A. Put battery modules into cabinet and connect
the cables:
①Connect the External Communication Cable,
External Power Cable + and - and AC power
cable from Inverter;

16 / 21
16BISV0903
②Put the control module and the battery modules into the cabinet;
③Drive the screws, to fasten each module on the rack;
④Connect the cables between battery modules and the control module;
The cables’installation sequence is as numbers in the right diagram:

17 / 21
16BISV0903
B. System turn On
Double check all the power cables and communication cables. Make sure the voltage of the
Inverter is same level with the battery system.
(1) Switch battery system switch on.
All the control modules and the battery modules’green LED light (status and capacity) as below
will be on:
If all the LED light on as normal, which means the battery system is good and working.
(2) Check the battery system’s working status on control module.
(3) Turns the power output switch on:

18 / 21
16BISV0903
C. System turn off
(1) Turn off the System Switch.
(2) The Power Output Switch normally needn’t switch off.
Caution:
Before change the battery module for service, must charge/discharge the replaced battery
same/similar voltage to the other in system battery modules. Otherwise the system need long
time to do the balance for this replaced battery module.
NOTE
After installation, do not forget to register online for full warranty:

5. Trouble Shooting Steps
Problem determination based on:
1) If the system is turned on, and the status LED of Control Module is red, but the status LED of
Battery Module is green. Please check the External Battery Communication Cable
(CAN/RS485) connection is right or not.
2) If the system is turned on, and the status LED of Control Module is fleshing in red, the battery
system self check can’t detected. Please check the Power Cables of Battery Module Serial
Connection is right or not.
3) If the system is turned on, the status LED of Control Module and the status LED of Battery
Module is orange. That’s means some running condition is out of setting parameters’range.
The battery system is not failure.
4) If the system is turned on, the status LED of Control Module is red, it means the system is in
protection mode or has failure. If the status LED of Battery Module is also red (in protection
mode or has failure), voltage, current, temperature protection are protection mode. In
protection mode the system will release itself if the working environment goes back normal. If
it caused by battery system failure, please shut the battery system off, and inform service stuff.
5) If the battery system is in low capacity long time, please turn off the System Switch to avoid
the battery empty to damage the cells.
