Installation Prerequisites
Ensure that the installation site meets the following conditions:
Y The building is designed to withstand earthquakes Y The site is over 3280.84
ft/1000 m. away from the sea to avoid salt water and humidity Y The floor is
flat and level Y There are no flammable or explosive materials, at a minimum
of 2.95 ft/0.9 m Y The ambience is shady and cool, and is away from heat and
direct sunlight Y The temperature and humidity remain at a constant level Y
There is minimal dust and dirt in area Y There are no corrosive gases present,
including ammonia and acid vapor Y Where charging and discharging, the ambient
temperature ranges from 32°F/0°C to 113°F/45°C Y For both mounting methods,
the wall tilt must not exceed 5 degrees
In practice, the requirements of battery installation may be different due to
enviroment and locations. In that case, follow up the exact requirements of
the local laws and standards.
Note!
The Triple Power battery module is rated at IP65 and thus can be installed
outdoors as well as indoors. However, if installed outdoors, the battery pack
should avoid direct sunlight and moisture for optimal performance .
Note!
If the ambient temperature exceeds the operating range, the battery pack will
stop running to protect itself. The optimal temperature range for operation is
14°F/-10°C to 122°F/50°C. Frequent exposure to harsh temperatures may
deteriorate its performance and lifetime.

Commissioning
Steps for commissioning are shown as follows: Press the left side door panel Open the air switch’s guard and toggle switch, to ensure that the inverter does charge to the battery Press the right side door panel Press the button for 1 to 2 sec, and then the system starts
Press the left side door panel
On
Off
Press the right side door panel
Black Start: Press the POWER button and hold it for 20 sec; release the button
after the four SOC indicators flash blue alternately. But, we do not recommend
the use of Black Start as it may cause the port to be charged, resulting in an
electric shock.
If the batteries have not been used for more than 9 months, these batteries
must be charged to at least SOC 50 % each time. For the first installation,
the interval among manufacture dates of battery modules shall not exceed 3
months. If a battery is replaced or added for capacity expansion, each
battery’s SOC should be consistent. The max. SOC difference should be between
±5%. If users want to increase their battery system capacity, please ensure
that the SOC of the existing system capacity is about 40%. The manufacture
date of the new battery shall not exceed 6 months; in case of exceeding 6
months, please charge the new battery to around 40%.
The equipment can support capacity expansion. There are two circumstances in
case the user wants to increase a battery module: 1. For floor mounting,
remove the inverter before increase of battery module; 2. For wall mounting,
if the distance from the equipment to the ground is enough, do not remove the
inverter; otherwise, the inverter shall be removed.
