Packing List
Ensure all components are present before installation:

- Battery unit
- Mounting bracket
- Positioning plate
- Power cables (x2)
- Communication cable
- Ground cable
- Self-tapping screws (ST9.5*60) and gaskets
- M5*16 screws
- RJ45 waterproof terminals
- Packing list, inspection report, and installation guide
Product Overview
The battery unit features the following key components:

- 125 A DC Breaker: Main power disconnect.
- Terminals: Positive and Negative terminals for power connection.
- GND: Grounding point.
- Communication Ports: Inverter, Link In, and Link Out terminals.
- Breather Valve: Pressure equalization.
- Power Switch: Used to activate the battery.
Wall Mounting Steps
Follow these steps to mount the battery securely:


- Ensure minimum clearances: 300mm on sides and top, 0mm at the bottom.
- Use the positioning plate to mark drilling locations.
- Drill holes and secure the mounting bracket using the provided ST9.5 screws (torque: 40 N·m).
- Hang the battery unit onto the mounting bracket.
- Secure the battery to the bracket using M5 screws (torque: 3 N·m).
Electrical Connection
Grounding: Connect the ground cable to the GND terminal using an M6 screw (torque: 3 N·m).

Power Cables: Connect the positive and negative cables to the respective terminals. Ensure cables are 1 AWG / 50 mm².
Communication Cables: Connect the communication cable between the inverter and the battery, or between batteries in a parallel configuration using the Link In/Link Out ports.
System Activation

- Open the circuit breaker cover and turn on the circuit breaker.
- Turn on the power switch.
- Wait five seconds; a blue indicator light should flash, confirming normal operation.
- Replace the top covers and tighten the screws.
Indicator Status
The LED indicator provides system status:
- Standby: On 0.25s; Off 3.75s.
- Charge: On 0.5s; Off 1.5s.
- Discharge: Stays lit.
- Protection Status: On 0.5s; Off 0.5s.
- Inverter Communication Fault: On 0.5s; Off 0.5s.
- Parallel Communication Fault: On 0.25s; Off 3.75s.
- Alarm/Fault: Stays lit.
- Shutdown: Off.
