Installation and Maintenance Requirements
- Mounts to standard equipment racks; pairs directly with CC/CV smart chargers without balancing hardware
- Included accessories: 1-foot RS485 communication cable and parallel interconnect cabling for expanded capacity arrays
- Structural clearance utilizes 1.0–2.0 mm thick cold-rolled steel rack frames for optimal vibration dampening
- Maintenance protocol: Zero periodic calibration or electrolyte servicing required; annual visual inspection of bus bars and firmware telemetry review via CAN interface recommended
Warranty and Service Information
- Coverage Period: 10-year limited manufacturer defect warranty
- Service Terms: Direct replacement parts distribution and lifetime technical engineering support
