CAUTION! Risk of injury due to short circuit!
The battery module and other components of the TS 48 V are already live before commissioning. An
inadvertent short circuit can lead to severe injuries. It is therefore essential that you avoid any action
that may result in a short circuit, particularly when using uninsulated tools.

To fit the DC connectors, the side covers on the battery modules
must be removed and prepared.
To remove the cover:
1. loosen the clasp,
2. gently pull the cover forwards from the bottom,
3. rotate the cover towards the side panel.
10
Now prepare the side covers on the battery modules for fitting
the DC connectors:
1. Separate the predetermined breaking point using side cutters,
2. carefully break off the material to be removed using
combination pliers.
At the contact protection point on the last battery module,
remove only the upper section for the module connector. The
lower section remains closed to provide a touch guard.
11
Now fit the DC connector from the APU
1
to the first battery
module
2
. Start with the S-connector
3.1
from the APU LV
connector kit
3
. The S-connector connects the BATTERY “–”
connection
11
on the APU to the “–” pole
17
on the first battery
module. Use an M8 self-locking flanged nut
3.5
to fasten to the
APU. Initially, tighten the connection hand-tight only. The DC con-
nector
4.1
is only fastened to the battery module as part of the
process of connecting to the next battery module.
12
Next, fit the short “I” connector
3.2
from the APU LV connector
kit
3
. The connector forms a contact between the BATTERY “+”
connection
12
on the APU and the “+” pole
18
on the first battery.
Initially, fasten it to the APU hand-tight only using an M8 self-lock-
ing flanged nut
3.5
. The DC connector
4.1
is only fastened to
the battery module as part of the process of connecting to the
next battery module.
