3 Safety Information
Only qualified individuals are to install and service battery systems.
3.1 Electrical Hazards
Never place foreign objects or tools in or on the unit. The metal parts of the battery terminals are
always live. Electrical hazards exist in the voltage and current ranges that are found in battery systems
and associated electronics.
WARNING: Connecting battery stacks in series can lead to dangerously high voltages.
Any series configurations must be reviewed by Aquion prior to installation. When
connecting the unfused, S30-0080 stacks in parallel, Aquion recommends placing overcurrent
protection devices as close as possible to the DC bus.
3.2 Electrical Safety
The maximum charge/discharge current of the S30-0080 is 17 A. The stacks must be protected
from overcurrent charge/discharge with appropriately rated overcurrent protection devices. If
grounding is required, see Section 6.5.3.
Each battery module includes twelve 1,000 V, 20 A fuses, one for each component battery stack.
The fuses do not come pre-installed (see Section 5.5 for fuse installation instructions). The
combined maximum fuse rating of 240 A is greater than the maximum rated current of the
module, 204 A, to allow for internal energy redistribution.
3.3 Chemical Hazards
AHI battery materials are non-toxic and present no chemical hazards. The AHI electrolyte is sodiumsulfate-based saltwater with a neutral pH. In the unlikely event that the electrolyte comes in contact
with eyes or skin, thoroughly wash it out with water. Electrolyte residue on the battery terminal can be
wiped away with a cloth. A collection pan under the battery stack or module is not needed as the
electrolyte will not leak during normal operation, and any leaked electrolyte will not damage battery
surfaces or equipment. Refer to the SDS for additional information.
3.4 Gas Emissions
The battery may emit trace amounts of gas H2, O2, CO2, and CO during normal operation. These
gasses are not accumulated in hazardous quantities if the batteries are ventilated according to the
3
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
guidelines in Section 5.2.3 of this manual. The battery has passed the UL 1973-13 Overcharge Test,
which includes monitoring for toxic vapors and combustible vapor concentrations. Overcharging the
battery will result in venting of non-hazardous gas, primarily composed of H2, O2, CO2, and CO,
through the pressure relief valve.
3.5 Weight Hazards
The battery stack weighs 118 kg (260 lbs) and must be transported and handled with appropriate
precautions. A furniture dolly with an appropriate weight rating may be useful for transporting the
battery stack, though care should be taken not to tilt the stack more than fifteen (15) degrees.
The battery module weighs 1,504 kg (3,315 lbs) and must be transported and handled with
appropriate precautions. The use of forklift trucks and pallet jacks is recommended to move and
position battery modules.
3.6 Ingress Protection
The International Electrotechnical Commission publishes the International Protection (IP) Code, which
classifies the degrees of protection provided by electrical equipment enclosures against ingress of
solid particles and liquid.

3.7 Decommissioning Hazards
AHI batteries are non-toxic and non-corrosive. Do not dump into any sewers, on the ground, or into
any body of water where water runs off into open bodies of water. Dispose of according to all federal,
state, and local regulations.

AQ-OP-00016_A.02
4 Transportation and Receipt of Product
4.1 Shipping
4.1.1 Shipping Hazards
The shipping configurations for battery stacks have undergone a modified International Safe Transit
Association (ISTA) 3H shipping test. Modified ISTA 3H testing is pending for the battery module.
Aquion battery stacks and modules are shipped at a very low state of charge and voltage. See
Section 7.1 for initial charging instructions.
4.1.2 Shipping Requirements
Battery stacks and modules shall not exceed fifteen (15) degrees of tilt angle during transportation
and placement. Aquion batteries should not be tipped for an extended period of time during shipping.
Ensure that this restriction is communicated to the shipper prior to transport.
4.2 Disassembly Hazards
WARNING: Do NOT attempt to disassemble battery stacks. Do NOT remove the nut on the
compression fixture on top of the stack. Battery stacks have been compressed to optimize
battery performance. Releasing this load could result in poor battery performance, permanent
damage to stack components, and/or injury.
4.3 Packaging
Battery stacks arrive 12 or fewer to a pallet. They may be wrapped (U.S. shipments) or crated
(shipments outside the United States). On crated shipments, a Tip-N-Tell indicator and a DropN-Tell indicator are affixed on the outside of the crate. On wrapped shipments, these indicators
are affixed on the outside of the wrapping.
Battery modules arrive wrapped and on a pallet. The Tip-N-Tell and Drop-N-Tell indicators are
affixed to the outside of the wrapping.
4.4 Delivery Inspection
Immediately upon delivery, inspect all hard goods for signs of damage or tipping during transit before
signing for the delivery. Any of the following MAY indicate damage during transport:
+ Damaged or torn packaging
+ Scraped or punctured product components
+ Tripped Tip-N-Tell indicator
5
+ Tripped Drop-N-Tell indicator
+ Leaking electrolyte (clear liquid)
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
If you find damage, document any signs of damage on the bill of lading before accepting the shipment.
Separately document and photograph all damage, and make a claim with the carrier as soon as
possible. Contact your distributor immediately.
Slight bulges or depressions in the battery stack cases are normal. The battery stack cases are
intentionally flexible to accommodate compression of the electrode stack and normal variations in
internal pressure during operation. A slight concave deformation, or depression, in the sidewall of the
battery stack case is not unusual, especially in new batteries, and does not present an unsafe
condition. A convex deformation, or bulge, projecting no more than 10 mm from the sidewall of the
battery is also not unusual and does not present an unsafe condition. If a bulge projects more than
10 mm, do not place the battery in service, or remove it from service if already commissioned, and
contact Aquion Technical Support (see Section 10).

(6) air changes per hour or ventilation at 1 cubic foot per minute (CFM) per square foot of room size.
5.2.4 Humidity
Install batteries in clean, ordinary conditions protected from water exposure. Direct exposure of
battery stacks or modules to water may cause shorting. The units may be installed in humid or coastal
regions with atmospheric salt.
Battery stacks and modules must be operated in temperatures between -5°C and 40°C on a 24-hour
average. Operation above or below these limits will cause advanced degradation of the battery
chemistry. Battery stacks and modules must be stored in temperatures between -10°C and 40°C.
Storage above or below these limits may permanently damage the batteries.
7
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
5.3 Moving
Use proper lifting procedures and personal protective equipment when moving the S-Line
product. The S-Line product has been designed to be moved using the lifting eye and metal tierod that runs vertically through the center of the stack. Each shipment of six S-Line stacks
includes one lifting eye. The lifting eye screws onto the tie rod and can be used to move one stack
at a time. Use a crane, hoist, or similar device of appropriate loadbearing capacity to lift the S-Line product vertically by the lifting
eye threaded onto the tie-rod.
NEVER LIFT S-LINE PRODUCTS BY THE TERMINALS OR ANY
PART OTHER THAN THE SUPPLIED LIFTING EYE THREADED
ONTO THE TIE-ROD AS THIS WILL VOID THE WARRANTY AND
MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE PRODUCT AND/OR
SIGNIFICANT INJURY.
No other component of the S-Line product is designed to
support the weight of the stack. Alternatively, use an
appropriately sized hand truck to move S-Line product(s), so long
as the product is not tilted more than fifteen (15) degrees.
Position the stack on the hand truck so that the stack wiring faces
out, away from the upright frame of the hand truck.
The battery module must be transported and handled with appropriate precaution. The use of
forklift trucks and pallet jacks is recommended to move and position battery modules.
5.4 Placement
S-Line battery stacks and M-Line battery modules do not need any particular amount of clearance
between other stacks, modules, or other architectural features. Always follow local codes for aisle and
access requirements. Do not stack battery stacks or battery modules on top of each other. Do not
place other items on top of the battery stacks or battery modules.
The battery stacks and modules have been designed to be moved and installed in an upright position
(less than fifteen (15) degrees of tilt). Before moving and installing any S-Line or M-Line product,
ensure that the path from the site of product receipt to the installation site will not require tipping the
battery more than fifteen (15) degrees, and ensure that the installation location is level.

6.1.5 Sensed Module Contactor Control
A DC contactor is installed on the positive (+) lead of each M110-LS83 battery module. The DC
contactor must be powered by an external 24 V power supply. Aquion does not provide this
power supply. Each DC contactor power supply must be capable of supplying 100 mA times the
number of modules in the system, plus up to 1 A of surge current. The DC contactor operation
can be easily integrated into a system-level emergency stop (ESTOP) system to break down the
series voltage to <57.6 Vdc.
For systems equipped with an Aquion Battery Monitoring System, The DC contactor can be
commanded open by the Battery Monitoring System (BMS) if certain alarm limits are exceeded.
However, there will be a 1-second (adjustable) warning signal sent by both hardware and software
before the module contactor is opened. The hardware signal is a dry contact signal on the module
4-pin 24 V connector that can be sensed by the site controller. The software signal is a Modbus
command sent from the BMS to the site controller.

6.3 Racking/Scaling Systems
AHI battery modules are compatible with a variety of pallet racking solutions offered by vendors
around the world. They are designed to be racked in standard pallet racking or drive-in, edge-loaded
racking systems. Contact Aquion for more information.
6.4 Cabling Requirements
Systems of battery stacks or modules should be connected by Amphenol DeviceNet Thick CAN
cables (MN57B4BD01Mxxx). Aquion does not supply these cables. They can be purchased through
Amphenol distributors worldwide. Find your nearest authorized distributor at http://www.amphenolsine.com/Distributors_c_108.html. The total combined length of all CAN cables in a battery system
should not exceed 73.2 m (240 ft).
6.5 Parallel Wiring
Always consult local code and regulations when wiring an electrical system. The following are only
select examples of how to wire together S-Line or M-Line products in parallel.
S-Line Battery Stacks are designed to be connected in parallel
configurations. Aquion recommends monitoring for large systems of
battery stacks in parallel. Up to 192 battery stacks can be connected in
parallel if monitored by Aquion equipment (see Section 6.5.1). Contact
Aquion or your Aquion dealer for more details. Any parallel configuration
should use a standard combiner box with overcurrent protection devices
(see figure). Use wiring and overcurrent protection in accordance with
local standards and codes.
Series configurations can cause the battery stacks to exceed their voltage limit, damaging the
battery and degrading its performance and life. If wiring battery stacks in series, monitor the
voltage of each battery stack and ensure it does not exceed its recommended maximum. Series
configurations should be reviewed by Aquion Energy or an authorized partner.
Unsensed, M110-L083 battery modules may be used in small parallel systems. Aquion
recommends using sensed, M110-LS83 battery modules for large parallel systems. M110-LS83
battery modules require the Aquion BMS-200 Battery Monitoring System to operate properly.
Monitoring with the BMS-200 enables power control electronics to balance the capacities and
states of charge of the battery modules. Up to 16 M110-LS83 battery modules may be
connected in parallel if monitored by a BMS-200 (see Section 6.5.1).
M-Line Battery Modules may be operated in systems up to 1,000 Vdc. Contact Aquion for details.
18
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
6.5.1 Monitoring
An Aquion BMS-200 can connect to as many as 16 Aquion sensing boards:
+ up to 16 Aquion SMI-100 Stack
Monitoring Interfaces, each connected
to as many as 12 battery stacks
- OR -
+ up to 16 M110-LS83 battery module
VIS boards daisy-chained together in a
string
The BMS communicates to the site controller via Modbus TCP/IP. Contact Aquion for details of the
communications protocol. For more information on the SMI-100 and BMS-200, download their
Product Specification Sheets, available at http://info.aquionenergy.com/
download-specs.
6.5.2 Overcurrent Protection
Systems should be protected in accordance with local codes and regulations. Protection should be
sufficient to prevent the current from exceeding the rated maximum current of the battery stacks,
17 A, or module, 204 A, for systems wired together in parallel.
19
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
6.5.3 Grounding
Ground Aquion battery stacks according to local codes. If grounding is required, the battery stacks
should be grounded by using the tie rod. The following parts and tools are recommended:
+ ring terminal (Morris Products 11072)
+ nut (McMaster 93839A835)
+ 10 AWG wire
+ standard wire crimper
Attach the ring terminals to the battery stacks, and then ground the stacks.
The battery module is equipped with a ⅜”-16 grounding lug. A ground wire of proper size, based
on local code and regulations, should be connected to this grounding lug and directly to the
system DC ground.

AQ-OP-00016_A.02
7 Commissioning
7.1 Initial Charge
Aquion batteries are shipped at less than 2% state of charge (SOC) and less than 45 V. If the initial
voltage is insufficient for charging power electronics, the batteries can be charged using a battery
charging device set to the operating limits of the stacks or modules as defined the latest Product
Specification Sheet, available at http://info.aquionenergy.com/download-specs. Use only power
supplies designed to charge batteries. Most DC power supplies are not designed to charge batteries
and lack sufficient reverse current protection.
During its initial charge cycles, the battery may accept more energy than its nominal energy capacity
before it reaches its max voltage. This is the normal conditioning process that occurs in the battery. A
specific conditioning procedure is not required.
7.2 Voltage Matching
If stacks are to be wired in parallel, match the voltages of all stacks within 5 Vdc before connecting
individual stacks together. Take care when “live parallel bussing” batteries with unequal open
circuit voltages. The high impedance of the AHI battery limits its short-circuit current. However,
connecting battery stacks with voltage differences greater than 5 Vdc can damage the stacks and
create an unsafe operation.
7.3 Configuring Inverters and Charge Controllers
Aquion Energy works with nearly all off-the-shelf inverters and charge controllers designed for 48 V
residential energy storage systems. To set your specific equipment, use the information provided in
Section 8 and Appendix A of this manual.
21
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
8 Operation
To maximize the performance and longevity of Aquion batteries, follow the operation guidance
presented below. Failure to operate the batteries within these limits may damage the batteries,
degrade their performance, shorten their life, and void the product warranty.
8.1 Operational Limits
8.1.1 Current
S-Line Battery Stacks must be charged or discharged at no more than 17 A.
M-Line Battery Modules must be charged or discharged at no more than 204 A.
8.1.2 Voltage
Battery stacks and modules must be operated between 40 and 57.6 Vdc after initial charge.
Battery stacks and modules must be operated in a 24-hour average ambient temperature
between -5°C and 40°C.
8.1.4 Configuration
Aquion recommends monitoring for large systems of battery stacks or modules connected in parallel.
When using Aquion monitoring equipment (see Section 6.5.1), up to 192 stacks or 16 modules per
inverter or power control system can be connected in parallel. See Section 6.5 for complete parallel
wiring information. M-Line Battery Modules may be operated in systems up to 1,000 Vdc.
8.2 Recommended Charge Profile
Aquion batteries can be
charged using the same
type of three-stage
profile used for lead acid
batteries. Though not
strictly correct for the
AHI chemistry, the lead
acid terminology (bulk,
absorption, float) is
included for clarity. Unlike lead acid, AHI batteries do not require a float voltage, but one is included to
maintain a full state of charge.
22
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
Aquion S-Line battery stacks should be charged using the following set points:
Max Current
17 A/stack
Max (Absorption) Voltage
57.6 V at 30°C average charge
(Absorption) Time at Max V
1 hour
Float Voltage
54.0 V, or 52.1 V if holding for >4 hours (UPS/grid-tied)
Battery modules must be charged or discharged with less than or equal to 204 A of current. There
is a 20 A fuse on each individual battery stack, and internal stack interactions may have up to 3 A of
impact in high-rate conditions. Battery modules should be charged using the following set points:
Max Current
204 A/module
Max (Absorption) Voltage
57.6 V at 30°C average charge
(Absorption) Time at Max V
1 hour
Float Voltage
54.0 V, or 52.1 V if holding for >4 hours (UPS/grid-tied)
8.3 State of Charge
8.3.1 Partial State of Charge
AHI batteries can maintain a partial or low state of charge (SOC) without significant performance loss.
Periodically charging the battery to 100% SOC, known as an equalization charge, is not required to
maintain battery life. AHI batteries may be stored between 0% and 100% SOC for short periods. For
guidance on long-term storage, see Section 8.6.
8.3.2 Determining State of Charge
The state of charge of an Aquion battery stack
can be estimated by measuring its open circuit
voltage (OCV). To measure the OCV, first
disconnect the battery stack or stacks from the
DC bus by either unplugging the H4 connectors
or powering down the system. Let the battery
stacks sit unpowered for at least three hours,
then measure the voltage between the positive
and negative terminals.
23
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
8.4 Discharging
Battery stacks can be discharged at up to 17 A of current individually.
Battery modules can be discharged at up to 204 A of current per module.
8.5 Self-Discharge
The self-discharge of the Aquion AHI battery chemistry is closely related to the ambient temperature
at which the battery is held. Aquion batteries should be held within the temperature range outlined in
the Product Specification Sheet (available on the Aquion Energy Customer Portal at
http://info.aquionenergy.com/customer-portal). Aquion batteries exhibit the following capacity
losses due to self-discharge over the course of one (1) month:
+ at -5°C: < 2%
+ at 10°C: 5%
+ at 30°C: 18%
+ at 40°C: > 25%
For the AHI battery chemistry, the capacity loss due to self-discharge is not irreversible. Capacity lost
over a month can be recovered simply by recharging the battery to 100% SOC.
8.6 Long-Term Storage
If battery stacks or modules are to be stored for an extended period of time, remove all signal and
power connections to prevent unintended self-discharge and undetected ground faults. Keep any
grounding in place. To avoid permanent damage, store products in the following conditions:
+ between -10°C and 40°C
+ indoors or protected from sun and water
8.7 Recycling and Disposal
AHI batteries are non-toxic and non-corrosive. Do not dump into any sewers, on the ground, or into
any body of water where water runs off into open bodies of water. Dispose of according to all federal,
state, and local regulations.
8.8 Record Keeping
Aquion Energy recommends maintaining proper system documentation records. These include a
single-line diagram of the complete system and a log documenting system settings (inverter, charge
controller, charge voltages, etc.).

The 48 V Aquion Energy battery is designed to be compatible with the majority of charge controllers
and inverters that are compatible with lead acid batteries. With the appropriate voltage, time, and
temperature compensation settings, the Aquion battery can use the common lead acid charge profile
of Bulk, Absorb, Float. The Aquion battery does not require a float current, as lead acid batteries do,
but there is a regulation voltage at which the battery can be held following its absorption charge cycle.
Different settings apply if the battery is to be used primarily in an off-grid application versus a grid-tied,
UPS-type application. The goal of off-grid, solar/battery charged applications is to charge the battery
as fast as possible when power is available. The grid-tied or UPS use case emphasizes providing
26
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
voltage settings that ensure the long-term life of the battery and maximum available energy when
required. To achieve this goal, the battery will use a lower float voltage or utilize silent mode settings.
The inverter settings in this appendix are recommendations only. They are intended to keep the
batteries within their operational limits (maximum voltage, maximum current, etc.). These settings can
be changed to optimize the performance of your particular system. Please contact Aquion Energy
support (see Section 10) for any further assistance.
A.1 Definitions
+ Bulk current – Maximum current at which the battery can be charged.
+ Absorption voltage – Voltage at which the battery can be maintained in the constant voltage
“absorption” stage of the charge profile. This condition allows the battery to charge at a faster
rate.
+ Absorption time – Length of time that the battery should be held at absorption voltage.
+ Hold (float) voltage – Voltage at which the battery can be held following the absorption stage. The
hold stage allows the battery to maintain a full state of charge when the system is generating
more power than is required by the system loads.
A.2 Voltage Limits vs. Temperature
The table below shows the maximum absorption and float voltages as a function of temperature. If
your power control electronics do not allow you to set temperature-compensation values, use 57.6 V
as the maximum absorption voltage.

A.3 How to Charge Aquion Batteries
All off-grid power control devices that have temperature compensation have a battery temperature
sensor accessory. Affix the battery temperature sensor to the side of the topmost battery in the
eight-battery stack. For groups of stacks, install the battery temperature sensor on the most central
stack. Aquion recommends that the sensor be attached with high-quality tape, in addition to any selfadhesive included with the sensor.
A.4 Temperature Compensation
The Aquion AHI battery is capable of operating at higher ambient temperatures than lead acid
batteries can. The reference temperature for the AHI battery is 30°C, rather than the 25°C typical of
lead acid technologies. Because most off-grid power electronics are designed to use 25°C as the
reference temperature and have varying temperature compensation functions, care must be taken
when selecting the appropriate charge settings for an AHI battery.
27
AQ-OP-00016_A.02
A.5 Device-Specific Settings by Manufacturer
This section suggests settings for several power control devices when they are connected to Aquion
batteries. All settings are for off-grid applications with battery stacks unless otherwise noted as being
for modules or for grid-tied or UPS applications. If your device is not shown, derive the settings from
the “Voltage Limits vs. Temperature” table above (Section A.2) or contact Aquion Energy technical
support for assistance (see Section 11). Settings may need to be adjusted for a specific installation’s
use, configuration, or operating environment. Contact Aquion Energy technical support for
assistance.
A.5.1 Morningstar
Several Morningstar charge controllers can be configured using their serial/Modbus adapter and the
MSView software. The charge controllers operate at different voltages (12, 24, or 48 V) depending on
the initial battery voltage when power is connected.
