FOX ESS LV54 High-Performance Scalable Low-Voltage Battery Storage Modules Installation Guide

1. Tools Required

The following tools will be required to install the battery.

2. Packing List

Please check if following items are including with the package:

K: In order to match different inverters, two kinds of communication cables (RS485 & CAN) are provided with the package. The battery side plug is already crimped, the inverter side please refer to inverter’s manual for the pin definition.

Note: The definition of the inverter side end plug needs to be crimped in accordance with the inverter’s manual.

Note:

1. Use only the parts included with the battery pack to ensure proper installation. If anything is damaged or missing, contact manufacturer or your distributor.
2. Select a communication cable (CAN/RS485) based on the actual inverter interface type

3. Battery Terminals

4. Installation Steps

STEP-1:
Fix the pegboard on the wall and mark the position of the five holes
with a marker.

STEP-2:
Drill holes with electric drill, make sure the holes are deep enough
(at least 50mm) for installation, and then tighten the expansion
tubes.

STEP-3:
Install the expansion tube in the hole and fix the pegboard with
self-tapping screws, then pre-lock the M5*70 screws on both
sides (pre-lock depth <15mm)

STEP-4:
Hang the battery over the bracket, move the battery close to it, lower the battery, and make sure the 2 mounting bars on the back are fixed well with the 2 grooves on the bracket.

5. Wiring Steps

Stand-alone mode
STEP-1: After installing the fixed battery, measure the voltage of the positive and negative terminals of the battery with a multimeter to determine whether there is a voltage output, and if so, replace the battery.

STEP-2: Plug the 2 plugs (to short pin1 and pin6) into the parallel communication interface LINK IN and LINK OUT of the battery respectively.

STEP-3:
Connect the BAT+ and BAT- of the battery to the corresponding positive and negative terminals of the inverter; connect one of the communication interface PCS of the battery to the interface of the communication between the inverter and the battery; connect the ground wire.

Parallel mode
STEP-1: After installing the fixed battery, measure the voltage of the positive and negative terminals of the battery with a Multimeter to determine whether there is a voltage output, and if so, replace the battery.
STEP-2: To connect the parallel communication cable between the batteries, the LINK IN of the Master battery, i.e. the first machine, needs to be plugged in with a plug (to short pin1 and pin6), the LINK OUT interface uses a parallel communication cable (pin to pin network cable) to the LINK IN interface of the next battery, and so on, and the last LINK OUT interface is plugged in with a plug (to short pin1 and pin6).

Note: Parallel mode supports up to 4 batteries in parallel.

STEP-3:
Connect the BAT+ and BAT- of the battery to the input of the junction box (not included in the package), and then connect the output of the junction box to the inverter; connect one of the communication interface PCS of the Master battery to the interface of the communication between the inverter and the battery Connect the ground wire of each battery.

Note: the length of the power line needs to be the same when in parallel mode

Lead-acid function
In the above two modes, when operating according to the corresponding steps, the communication harness between the battery and the inverter is not connected, and the battery enters the lead-acid function by default; Both stand-alone mode and parallel mode have lead-acid function.

When the battery uses the lead-acid function, the matching inverter needs to be set to lead-acid mode as well, and the following parameters need to be set on the inverter:

Note: Under the lead-acid function, the battery does not communicate with the inverter, and the inverter will not display the SOC information of the battery.

6. System Start Up

Press and hold the Power button for more than 2s, the battery light will flash once, then the LED will light up in turn, and when the top most running light flashes fast for about 10 times, it means that the system parallel programming is successful and the battery is running normally.
