The LifePower4 Rack Mount Battery is a high-performance lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) energy storage system designed for scalable residential and commercial applications. Operating at 51.2V nominal voltage, it offers capacities ranging from 5.12kWh to 30kWh through modular stacking. With 6,000+ charge cycles and IP65-rated enclosures, it supports solar integration, backup power, and industrial energy management. Built-in battery management systems (BMS) ensure thermal stability and enable remote monitoring. Pro Tip: Always verify inverter compatibility (48V–60V DC input) when integrating with solar arrays to avoid efficiency losses.
How to Dispose Used 18650 Batteries Properly
What voltage and capacity options are available?
The LifePower4 operates at 51.2V DC with capacities from 100Ah (5.12kWh) to 300Ah (15.36kWh) per unit. Multiple batteries can be paralleled for up to 180kWh systems. Pro Tip: Use identical capacity modules when stacking to prevent uneven load distribution.
Engineered for flexibility, these rack-mount batteries utilize LiFePO4 cells with a 1C discharge rate, delivering 100A continuous current per module. The 51.2V architecture aligns with most solar inverters, eliminating voltage conversion losses. For example, a 200Ah unit provides 10.24kWh—sufficient to power a 2kW household load for 5 hours. Modular design allows incremental expansion; users can start with 5kWh and scale as energy needs grow. Thermal management systems maintain cells between -20°C to 60°C, ensuring stable performance in varied climates.
How does the IP65 rating enhance durability?
The IP65 certification guarantees dust-tight operation and protection against low-pressure water jets. This enables installation in garages, outdoor enclosures, or industrial sites without climate control.
Beyond basic weather resistance, the IP65 design prevents conductive dust accumulation on terminals—a common failure point in workshops. The aluminum alloy casing dissipates heat 30% faster than steel enclosures, even when fully sealed. For coastal applications, the nickel-plated copper busbars resist salt corrosion 5x longer than bare copper. Practical example: A marine research station using LifePower4 batteries recorded zero corrosion-related faults after 18 months in 85% humidity. Pro Tip: Install units at least 15cm above floor level in flood-prone areas despite the IP65 rating.

FAQs
Yes, when properly sized. A 30kWh system supports average 24-hour household loads, though critical circuits should be prioritized during extended outages.
Are these compatible with Tesla Powerwall inverters?
Partial compatibility exists through third-party gateways. Direct communication requires additional protocol converters—consult integration specialists first.
