2. Introduction
These high-voltage Lithium iron phosphate battery modules are designed to integrate with reliable inverter
modules to offer a total solar energy storage solution for households.
It is built-in smart battery management system (BMS), which can manage and monitor cells’ information
including voltage, temperature, current, etc. Moreover, BMS can balance cells charging and discharging to
extend cycle life. Battery modules can be used alone or in parallel to expand capacity for different
requirements.
2.1 Features
Non-toxic, non-polluting, and friendly for the environment.
LiFeO4 cell material with safety performance and long cycle life.
Smart BMS protection functions: over-discharge, high temperature, over-charge, over-current.
Parallel operation up to 5 units for energy expansion
Suitable for wide range of solar inverters with high-voltage
Flexible configuration, multiple battery modules can be easily stacked and added for energy
expansion.
Working temperature range is from 0°C to 50°C with excellent discharge performance and cycle
life.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1 Installation Environment
Make sure that the installation environment meets the following conditions:
The area is completely waterproof.
The floor is flat and level.
There are no flammable or explosive materials nearby.
The ambient temperature is within the range of 0~50°C.
The temperature and humidity are maintained at a constant level.
There is minimal dust and dirt in the area.
Caution:
If the ambient temperature is out of the operating range, the battery module will stop operating to protect
itself. The optimal temperature range for the battery module to operate is 0°C to 50°C. Frequent exposure
to harsh temperatures may deteriorate the performance and shorten the life cycle of the battery module.

3.2 Mounting the Modules
Step 1: Use Ø 13mm to drill holes at a depth of 60mm at the wall according to the distance indicated
below. Drill four holes on the floor first for stand feet, then drill two holes for the mounting plates of each
battery module on the wall.

Step 2: Push four expansion bolts into the Ø 13mm holes drilled on the floor. Remove nut, spring washer,
and flat washer.
Step 3: Take the stand feet and put them on the ground. Align the hole on the stand feet with four
expansion bolts on the ground and pass through the bolts on the floor. Then, screw back the nut, spring
washer, and flat washer.
Step 4: Remove the side cover of battery module, put it on the top of stand feet. Make sure they are
aligned well.
