Warning: Whenever working on the battery, wear suitable personal protective equipment (PPE) such as rubber gloves, rubber boots and goggles. Warning: The AXIstorage Li SV1 system’s working temperature range: 0℃ ~ 50℃; Optimum temperature: 18℃~28℃. Conditions out of the working temperature range may cause the battery system over / low temperature alarm or protection which further leads to a cycle life reduction as well as it will affect the warranty terms.
1.2 Before Connecting 1) After unpacking, please check the product and packing list first. If a product is damaged or if there is a lack of parts, please contact the local retailer; 2) Before installation, be sure to cut off the grid power and make sure the battery is in the switched-off mode;...
System Introduction 2.1 Product Introduction The AXIstorage Li SV1 is a high voltage battery storage system based on lithium iron phosphate batteries, which is a new energy storage product of Axitec. It can be used to provide reliable power for various types of equipment and systems. AXIstorage Li SV1 is especially suitable for those application which require high power output, limited installation space, restricted load-bearing and long cycle life.
2.2.3 Control Module BMS SV1 (internal power supply) Control Module (BMS SV1) Display Panel LED Button Short Press activates the LED panel for 20sec. Long Press When status LED is fast flashing blue ●, release the button, (more than then the baud rate of RS485 is 115200. 5sec) When status LED is fast flashing orange ●, release the button, then the baud rate of RS485 is 9600.

Control Module (BMS SV1) Cable Panel Power Switch ON: main breaker ON, it is now possible to turn on the battery system by start button. OFF: system turns off completely, no power output. Caution: When the breaker is tripped off because of over current or short circuit, wait at least 30min before turning on again, otherwise it may cause damage to the breaker.
Power Terminal (+/-) For connecting the power cables between battery system and Inverter. Communication Terminal (RS485 / CAN / RS232) RS485 Communication Terminal: (RJ45 port) follow MODBUS 485 protocol, for communication between battery system and inverter. CAN Communication Terminal: (RJ45 port) follow CAN protocol, for communication between battery system and inverter.
Installation 3.1 Required Tools The following tools are required to install the battery pack: Wire Cutter Crimping Modular Plier Cable Ties Screwdriver Set Electric Screwdriver Adjustable Wrench Sleeve Piece 600VDC Multimeter NOTE Use properly insulated tools to prevent accidental electric shocks or short circuits. If insulated tools are not available, cover the entire exposed metal surfaces, except their tips, with available insulated alternatives (insulating tape).
The aeration shall avoid high salinity, humidity or temperature. Caution: The AXIstorage Li SV1 system has IP55 protection. But please avoid frost or direct sunlight. Conditions out of the working temperature range will cause the battery systems over / low temperature alarm or protection trigger which further leads to cycle life reduction.
In cold area a heating system is required. B. The AXIstorage Li SV1 system must not be immersed in water. The battery base cannot be placed in rain or other water sources. As a suggestion, the base’s height shall be >300mm above the ground.
ENERGYPACK LI SV1 Battery Module Energypack LI SV1 battery module EPE foam No additional kits needed for AXIstorage Li SV1 installation. 3.4.5 Mounting and installation of the base The base must be fixed installed on the basement with 4pcs M8×80 foundation bolts.
3.4.6 Battery Modules and Control Module (BMS) pile up Handle the modules above the red marked edgings on both sides. Caution: If hands are under this red marked side, hands will get hurt. Danger: when the battery is connected together with the base, the internal sockets still have high voltage DC power from serial connected battery modules (battery module can’t be turned off).
3.4.7 Installation of the metal mounting rails In the control module’s package there are 2pcs short and 2pcs long metal mounting rails. Fix these metal mounting rails at both back side corners. V220308...
Caution: Wrong communication cables connection will cause a battery system failure. 3.5.1 Grounding The AXIstorage Li SV1 has three grounding points, where the grounding cable can be connected (above the right side of top metal mounting rail screw or beside both sides of the screw in the base).
3.5.2 Cables Note: For the power cables, water-proof connectors are used. To disconnect, a special tool is required. Do not pull out directly. Note: For communication cable use RJ45 connector and water-proof cover(M19-RJ45) matched with controller connection port. V220308...
3.5.3 Switching on the System Warning: Double check all the power cables and communication cables. Make sure the voltage of the inverter/PCS is same level with the battery system before connection. Check if all the power switches are OFF. Steps for switching system on: 1) Check if all cables are connected correctly.
Warning: If there is a failure during the self-check, you must first debug the failure and then go to the next step. If the “STATUS” lamp shows orange from the beginning, it means that there has been some failure in the battery string. The Power relays in the BMS will open, you must debug first. Note: The LED lamp will be off after 20sec without any operation.
Caution: Before replacing the battery module for service, charge/discharge the existing battery modules until its voltage is similar to the voltage of the replacement. Otherwise the system needs long time to do the balancing for this replaced battery module. System Debug This system debug is for the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).
Maintenance 5.1 Trouble Shooting: Danger: The AXIstorage Li SV1 is a high voltage DC system, operated by qualified and authorized persons only. Danger: Before checking the failure, check all cable connections and if the BESS can turn on normally or not.
5.2 Replacement of main components Danger: The AXIstorage Li SV1 is a high voltage DC system, operated by qualified and authorized persons only. Danger: Before replacing a main component, shut down the maintenanced battery string’s power.
