5 Commissioning User Manual When the battery works with PCS, it automatically calibrates every half year. Cali- bration is done automatically by batteries and PCS given that there is electricity in the grid or PV modules to charge and discharge batteries. step 1 The battery automatically issues discharge instructions to PCS, which discharge the battery to 0% SOC at rated current.
- - End Contact SUNGROW to dispose of the battery. If a combiner box is used, power off the DC and AC sides of the PCS, and discon- nect MCBs of all battery RACKs before operating the battery system.
Battery Augmentation Battery charging and discharging may take a long time. So before adding new battery mod- ules, please finish charging and discharging the battery system on site remotely referring to brief introduction of battery augmentation on the support website to avoid the installer wait- ing on site.
717, 732– 737, Battery so, contact the battery manufacturer. If not, contact 739, 832–837, fault SUNGROW. 839, 844, 864, 866– 868, 870 3. In case of abnormal battery temperature, take meas- ures to change the ambient temperature, such as improv- ing heat dissipation conditions.
Maintenance When adding new battery modules for capacity expansion, please contact SUN- GROW and follow the instruction released by SUNGROW. Otherwise, the system performance will be affected or even cannot operate properly. Below is the recommended maintenance cycle. The actual maintenance cycle should be ad- justed according to the specific installation environment of this product.
