Installation of gel battery energy storage cabinet

How do I install a battery cabinet?

Install the battery cabinet at the location assigned, observing the accident prevention rules. Leave additional space from the wall for possible or planned cable entries. If applicable, remove transport protection from the built-in cells or monobloc batteries. Check cells or monobloc batteries for correct positioning and for any mechanical damage.

Can a gel battery be used in a discharge-charging-mode?

Gel-batteries can be used also in discharge-charging-mode (a cycle consists of a discharge and a re-charging). Gel-solar batteries are optimized for cyclical application (additive to electrolyte: phosphoric acid, - increases the number of cycles). *) Discharge conditions acc. to IEC 896-2: 20° C, discharge for 3 h at a current of I = 2.0 * I10 .

Can you put a battery in an airtight enclosure?

Do not install batteries in airtight enclosures. Spark generating parts must have a safety distance to cell or bloc openings (respectively valves) as specified in EN 50272-2. Heaters with naked flame or glowing parts or devices are forbidden. Heater’s temperature must not exceed 300° C.

What is a gel-solar battery?

Gel-solar batteries are optimized for cyclical application (additive to electrolyte: phosphoric acid, - increases the number of cycles). *) Discharge conditions acc. to IEC 896-2: 20° C, discharge for 3 h at a current of I = 2.0 * I10 . This is equivalent to a depth of discharge (DOD) of 60% C10.

What are the requirements for installation and operation of stationary batteries?

For the installation and operation of stationary batteries DIN VDE 0510 part1 (draft) and EN 50 272-2 is mandatory. Battery installation should be made such that temperature differences between individual units do not exceed 3 degrees Celsius/Kelvin. Discharge must not be continued below the voltage recommended for the discharge time.

What is the final voltage of a gel battery?

Battery final voltage Uf = 1.75 Vpc 6 V-bloc: Uf = 1.75 V * 3 = 5.25 V Gel-batteries can be used also in discharge-charging-mode (a cycle consists of a discharge and a re-charging). Gel-solar batteries are optimized for cyclical application (additive to electrolyte: phosphoric acid, - increases the number of cycles).
