    PACKAGES CONTENTS User Manual Insulating Caps Battery Terminal Bolts IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS WARNINGS BATTERY DISPOSAL To prevent any risks of fire and/or explosion, please wrap the electrode in insulating paper before disposal. PROHIBITION OF DISASSEMBLY Do not disassemble the battery. Unguided Disassemble may cause an internal short circuit and lead to potential risks such as gassing, fire hazards, and explosions.
  • Page 4: Before Using

    PROHIBITION OF USE WHEN UNIT OR PARTS ARE DAMAGED Do not use the unit when the unit/parts are damaged in any way. Do not use it when emitting smells of electrolyte, leaking, and/or any other abnormalities appear. When the electrolyte emits smells and/or leaks, please immediately place the battery away from the heat source to prevent any potential risks of fire hazards and explosions.
  • Page 5 Suggestions for Long-term Storage: Temperature The battery can be operated at a temperature of -20°C to 65°C / -4°F to149°F and a temperature between -20°C to 45°C / -4°F to 95°F is ideal for long-term storage. Store in a fireproof container and away from children. Capacity For a longer-lasting product, it is best to store your battery at a 50% charge level and recharge every three months if it is not going to be used for a long time.

  • Page 9: Before First Use

    BEFORE FIRST USE CHECK THE STATE OF THE CHARGE Test the Battery Voltage with a Multimeter Refer to page 8 for 'How to test battery using a 'Multimeter' If the voltage tested is below 12V, please contact us at support-online@siekonenergy.com to help solve the problem.
  • Page 10: How To Test Battery Using A Multimeter

    HOW TO TEST BATTERY USING A MULTIMETER Based on the characteristics of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO ) batteries, the voltage batteries during charging/discharging is not the real measured by all LiFePO voltage of the battery. Therefore, after charging/discharging and disconnecting the battery from the power source, the voltage of the battery will gradually drop/increase to its real voltage.
  • Page 11: Using Your Battery

    USING YOUR BATTERY CONNECTION THE PREMISE OF SERIES/PARALLELL CONNECTION To connect in series or/and parallel, batteries should meet the below conditions: 1. Identical batteries with the same battery capacity (Ah) and BMS; 2. From the same brand (as lithium battery from different brands has their special BMS); 3.
  • Page 12 Step2: Voltage Balancing Before Connection Below two steps are necessary to reduce the voltage difference between batteries and let the battery system perform the best in series or/ and in parallel. 1. Fully charge the batteries separately. (voltage at rest: ≥13.4V) 2.
  • Page 13 3. Connect Batteries Both in Series&Parallel Connect in parallel first, then series. a. Connect the batteries in parallel. b. Connect the paralleled battery systems in series. Step4: Total Input&Output Connection Use two copper bars (instead of battery terminals) to connect all the positive and negative output/input cables, and make sure that the input&output currents of each battery are balanced.

Continuous Charge/ 200A Discharge Current Max Continuous Load Power 10,240W Tips: It is not recommended to use one terminal as the total positive or negative output/input of the battery system as the connected terminals may heat up or even melt if the total output/input current of the battery system is too high.

  • Page 18: Recommended Cable Sizing

    RECOMMENDED CABLE SIZING Battery cables should be properly sized to handle the expected load. Refer to the table below for amperage ratings for different sizes of copper cables. PVC COPPER CABLE SIZE (2.08) (3.31) (5.25) (8.36) (13.3) (21.1) (33.6) (42.4) (53.5) (67.4) (107)
  • Page 19: Battery Charging Mode

    LiFePO Battery Charging Mode CC(T1) CV(T2) LiFePO Battery Charging Curve CC (Constant Current) Phase (T1) In the beginning, a discharged battery will be charged with a constant current and voltage will be climbing steadily until reaching the constant voltage setpoint which varies for different charging methods.
  • Page 20 Solar Panel(s) & Controller Solar Panel Recommended Power: ≥300W The battery can be fully charged in one day (with effective sunshine of 4.5 hours/- day) by 300W solar panels. It may take more than one day to fully charge the battery with<300W solar panels since the duration and intensity of light would be a great factor for their charging efficiency.
