Storage and transport
4.1
Storage
Storage describes the condition when the storage system is not connected to the public
electrical mains and the battery modules cannot be automatically charged.
4.1.1
Ambient conditions during storage
While not in use, the system and battery modules must be stored under the following
conditions:
-
Ambient storage temperature of battery modules (<6 months) 0 °C – 40 °C
-
Ambient storage temperature of Inverter 0 °C – 40 °C
-
Humidity max. 90% (non-condensing)
-
Properly ventilated
-
Maximum elevation of 2,000 meters above sea level
-
Fire safety regulations observed
-
Free of dust
-
Free of corrosive and explosive gases
-
Free of vibrations
-
Plain surface that can bear heavy weights
-
Location meets local building codes
4.1.2
Storing the battery modules
Deep-discharge of the battery modules
Damage to the battery modules!
Do not disconnect the storage system from the public grid
for long periods of time.
Never continue to operate battery modules which have been
deep-discharged.
During storage, the battery modules automatically discharge at a minimal level. Deep-
discharge could damage or destroy the battery modules. For this reason, the battery
modules can only be stored for a limited amount of time.
Observe the following points:
-
The battery modules must be charged to at least 30% before storing them.
