prevail)
- Appearance inspection: After opening the outer packaging of the chassis, confirm whether the appearance is complete and free from deformation and mechanical damage.
- Performance testing: Turn on the chassis switch or press the reset button to observe whether the battery level display is normal. If 2-3 green lights remain on, it indicates that the battery pack is normal. If the red light flashes or remains on, it indicates that the battery pack is abnormal. Alternatively, use a multimeter to measure whether the output terminal has output voltage. If there is output voltage, the battery pack is normal. If the output voltage is 0V, the battery pack is abnormal.
- Fixing the chassis: Place the battery pack with normal performance in the corresponding rack. Before placing it, turn off the battery pack switch (i.e. RST button), and ensure that the rack is placed flat and free of any foreign objects or metal burrs. Use screws of the corresponding specifications to lock the chassis lifting ears on the rack.
- Connecting equipment: Remove the terminal cover and use the corresponding connecting cable to connect the positive and negative poles of the equipment to the positive and negative poles of the battery. The connection method must meet the onsite installation appearance requirements. The positive and negative poles must not be reversed, and the fixing screws must not be loose. After confirming that the connection is correct, cover the terminal cover and provide insulation protection.
- Test: Turn on the battery module switch, turn on the device power, use the device power to charge the battery pack, observe whether the switch power is in good operation status, and whether the battery level display light is normal. The running light and corresponding capacity display light flash, indicating normal charging status. If the running light and capacity display light do not flash, indicating that they are not in charging status, it is necessary to recheck the connection line.
Maintenance precautions
Due to its low self-discharge rate, floating charge resistance, ultra long service life and other performances, our lithium iron phosphate battery pack is maintenance free. The fully intelligent BMS battery management system replaces the manual detection link, which can automatically monitor the voltage of each single battery in the battery pack and the total voltage and current of the battery pack. During the charging and discharging process, the single battery is balanced to prevent overcharge and over discharge. The automatic detection and protection functions of the battery management system greatly reduce the failure rate of the battery pack, extend its service life, and greatly reduce the cost of use in the communication industry.
In the later stage of installation and use, a simple maintenance inspection can be carried out on the iron lithium battery. Due to its maintenance free feature, the maintenance cycle can be extended, such as once every 3 months Check whether the pole and connecting wire of lithium iron phosphate battery are loose, damaged, deformed or corroded, and whether the battery shell is damaged or deformed;
Observe the status of the battery pack operation indicator light. Under normal conditions, the green light is on. When the battery pack CAPACITY light is only the last one flashing, it indicates that the battery level is low and the battery is about to discharge and turn off the output;
If a malfunction occurs and the ALM red light of the battery pack flashes, an alarm is issued. Please check if the battery connection is correct or if there is an overcurrent situation. Afterwards, press the RST reset button, restart the battery, and check if the fault is resolved. If it cannot be resolved, please contact the manufacturer for assistance. Do not open the battery pack box without authorization. For application scenarios where multiple batteries are connected in parallel, if one of the batteries fails and needs to be replaced, please ensure that the voltage difference between the newly replaced battery pack and the other battery packs to be connected in parallel is within 2V. If the voltage difference is large, the high voltage battery pack will charge the low voltage battery pack with high current, and the low voltage battery pack will experience charging overcurrent protection, resulting in inability to charge.
Record the time and frequency of power outages, and make detailed statistics on the power supply time of batteries.
Common problem analysis and solutions
Under voltage protection
Phenomenon: The ALM alarm indicator light is off, and the RUN operation indicator light is off. Reason analysis:
- The battery pack voltage is too low, exceeding the low voltage protection value of the battery.
- The battery protection board is faulty. Solution: After the protection board enters the undervoltage state, it will lock the state until a charger is added to the charging input or the voltage reaches the recovery value, which can be activated.
Discharge overcurrent protection
Phenomenon: The ALM alarm indicator light is constantly on, and the RUN operation indicator light is off.
Reason analysis:
- The load current is too high, exceeding the battery discharge protection value.
- The battery protection board is faulty. Solution: After the protection board enters the overcurrent state, it will lock the state until a charger can be activated at the charging input end.
Temperature protection
Phenomenon: The ALM alarm indicator light is constantly on, and the RUN
operation indicator light is off.
Cause analysis: The ambient temperature may be too high or too low
Solution: When the temperature at the NTC end returns to normal, the
protection board will return to the temperature protection state and the red
ALM light will go out
Battery has no voltage output
Phenomenon: The battery indicator light is off, and the measured voltage
at both ends of the battery is 0V.
Reason analysis: The battery is not activated or the battery management
system is abnormal.
