Features
The Lithium Series 48V 5.1 kWh Slim battery has the following features:
- Designed for use in photovoltaic applications.
- Battery Management System (BMS): The BMS system built into the battery that monitors its operation and does not allow it to work outside the bounds of the design regime (V, I).
- Expandability: The system’s accumulation capacity can be expanded by incorporating more batteries.

5.3. ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTION
Batteries may be connected in parallel up to a maximum of 15. All batteries
must be grounded. It is suggested to connect the installation ground to the
rack at the same point
as all battery lands. Connection between batteries:
- Up to 15 batteries are allowed to be used in parallel.
- The batteries used in parallel must be the same batch of cases with the same SOC.
- The Voltage difference of batteries used in parallel must be within 0,5V.
- The dimensions of parallel cable must be the same.
- The batteries must be connected two by two with the same cable to the bus, following next scheme.
Connection between battery and inverter:
NOTE: Each power cord can carry a maximum of 120 A, so every two
batteries would need to connect a new cable to the inverter. However, if the
inverter is 5 kW only with one cable it would be enough to be at the limit of
the maximum current recommended.
Warning when doing a battery expansion: It is very important that in the
case of connecting batteries in parallel that are not new (for example, we add
a new battery to an existing system), we previously perform a voltage
balancing (without load) between them to avoid overcurrents that could damage
the system. As an alternative to balancing
voltages, balancing can be done by equalizing the SOC of the batteries. In
addition, when connecting new batteries, we must take into account that the
number of batteries at the time of connection must be similar to the number of
batteries that are already connected in the system. For example, if we have
five batteries installed and we want to connect a new one, we must first
connect the new battery with two of the five that were already in place to
balance them, and then connect these three with the other three remaining
batteries in the system. Batteries should always be connected in groups of
similar numbers so that a large group cannot damage a smaller group of
batteries at the time of connection.
5.3.1. CONFIGURATION WITHOUT COMMUNICATIONS
For those cases where the battery is intended to operate connected to an
inverter without communications, it’s not necessary to select a specific
configuration of the DIP switches and the batteries do not need to be
connected each other with the communication cable.
5.3.2. CONFIGURATION WITH COMMUNICATIONS
Communication cable: It will be configured one way or another depending
on the inverter used.
Cable configuration Hybrid Inverter Turbo Energy™/Goodwe/ Solis /Growatt
- It can be used a Straight-through cable
- Connect the cable to the CAN-2 port
- Growatt inverter is connected to the RS485-3 port
Cable configuration Victron
Connect the cable to the CAN-2 portc
Cable configuration Sofar
Connect the cable to the CAN-1 port
Cable configuration Voltronic
Connect the cable to the RS485-2 port
DIP switch
Each module has 4 DIP switches (Dual Inline Package) that will be configured
differently according to the number of batteries will be connected.

|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pack 1 / Master | |
| 2 | Pack 2 | |
| 3 | Pack 3 | |

5.4. ON AND OFF
To turn on, press the power button for 2 seconds. The BMS will start and the
LCD screen light up.
To turn off the batteries, press the power button for more than 3-6 seconds.
Sleep Function
When RS485/CAN communication interruption, no charge and discharge, no button
operation, 5 minutes later, the system will go into sleep mode to reduce self-
consumption.
In this mode, the battery power connectors still have normal battery voltage.
When the battery is in the sleep mode and meets any of following conditions,
the system will quit sleep mode and wake up.
- Charge or discharge current is detected.
- Press the “ON/OFF” button for 1 second.
- Access communication cable (RS485/CAN).
Power down function
When any of the following conditions are satisfied, the system will go into
power down mode to reduce self-consumption and protect the cells:
- Press the “ON/OFF” button for 3~6 seconds and release it;
- The lowest cell voltage is lower than the power down voltage, and the duration reaches the power down delay time (while no charging current).
In this mode, the battery power connectors don’t have voltage.
When the battery is in the power down mode and meets any of following conditions, the battery will quit power down mode and wake up.
- Charging current is detected (charging voltage should be higher than 51.2V);
- Press the “ON/OFF” button for 2 seconds and release it.
5.5. LED DISPLAY
The LED light on the front of the battery will indicate the State Of Charge
(SOC) as shown in the following table:
| SOC LED | Charge status |
|---|---|
| SOC < 5% | |
| 5% ≤ SOC ≤ 25% | |
| 25% ≤ SOC ≤ 55% | |
| 50% ≤ SOC ≤ 75% | |
| 75% ≤ SOC ≤ 95% | |
| SOC ≥ 95% |

Appendix
6.1. INSTRUCCIONES DE SEGURIDAD
- Please read the battery instructions before use.
- Keep the battery away from high voltage and out of reach of children.
- In operation, the battery should be kept in the set temperature ranges (between -10 C and 50 C) and a humidity less than 80%.
- During handling, be very careful to avoid bumps/falls of the battery.
- Be careful not to touch the contacts at the same time.
- The battery, at the end of its useful life, requires a recovery process, not disassemble it.
- Avoid locating batteries in damp places to avoid danger.
- When not in use for a long time, store the battery intact and let the battery be half charged. Wrap the battery with non-conductive material to avoid direct contact of the metal. Store the battery in a cool, dry place.
- Never expose the battery to fire or water.
6.2. SAFETY WARNINGS
-
Do not disassemble the batteries. The inside of the battery has a protective mechanism and a protective circuit to avoid danger. Improper disassembly will damage the protection function permanently, leaving the battery without safety conditions.
-
Never short-circuit the poles of the Battery. Avoid contact of positive and negative poles with metals.
-
Keep the batteries away from fire and extreme temperatures. Monitor the distance to thermal bulbs, stoves, etc.
-
Keep the battery away from the water. Always be careful that the battery is not located in damp places where the dew point can be reached.
-
Do not use batteries that have physical damage that may be due to falls or bumps.
-
Do not weld near the battery.
-
Overheating will result in the loss of the protective function of its life cycle, even, it could render the battery useless and in extreme cases self-ignition of the battery
occurs. -
Never connect this battery in series and connect it in parallel only with identical batteries up to a maximum number of 6.
-
If the battery has liquid leakage, avoid contact with it completely. It can be harmful to the skin, and if you touch the eyes, wash, and go to the hospital immediately
for treatment.
