Midnite just changed their absorb voltage to 56.4V.  For what its worth, I treat the batteries from manufacturers exactly the way they say, I don't want to do anything that may jeopardize the warranty.  Also with LFP batteries, its not just a pile of cells, no doubt each manufacturer has their

Today I installed 3 of the MN POWERFLO 5 batteries with an OBVFX3648 Per the battery label I was able to set the inverter LBCO to 46 vdc. I see that the battery BMS range Is 44.8-58 vdc We should be good to go. Jeremy Rodriguez Solar Installation / Design All Solar, Inc. 1453 M St. Penrose Color

HI Nick Thanks but I’m curious about 1 thing. The charged voltage they list here is around 57v. But the charge voltage specifics I just got from midnite say 56.4. What’s up with that I don’t understand which is correct. jay > On Feb 3, 2025, at 1:45 PM, Nick Lucchese via RE-wrenches > wrote

Hi Jay The settings for the MNS Batteries are on a sticker on each battery. BMS- LVCO 44.8 HVCO 58V (The HVCO is not on the sticker) LVCO (inverter) 46.0 Float 54V Bulk 56.1V The rest of the you can set to what you want, the battery does not care. All Prismatic cells operate mostly the same, an

Hi Bill I tried and failed to find any setting information on that battery besides charge and float. Kinda need to know things like LVD, recommended LBCO, etc. But if it’s similar to other prismatic cells you should be able to set the OB inverter to a LBCO that works without having to go throu

I think the answer is using a flexnet DC's aux relay terminal to control the on/off switch terminals of the FX inverter. You'll need a mate3S/SL but that should do it without having to change the inverter... On Sun, Feb 2, 2025, 8:52 PM Bill Battagin via RE-wrenches < re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenc
