I have 4 pylontech us3000 connected to a Victron inverter. The master battery is connected to the inverter with the positive and negative cable. So There us no connection between the bottom battery and the inverter. Is this ok? System has been working for 2 years now without problems. Off grid system.

Good afternoon, l have two pylontech us3000 and 5000. The investor is saying PB on screen but they are not charging. What could be the problem please as the electrician seems to suggest that they might have been drained so we need to press the restart button of which we can not find one other than the power. If this advice is ok, do we turn them off with the investor on or switched off please. It is an off grid system. Thank you very much for your assistance

I currently have a single stack of seven 2000's which the installer set up. In studying the PylonTech installation manual, it says not to stack them directly one upon another and even when using their super-expensive brackets, it says a maximum of four! Have you ever heard if or experienced. any problem with stacking?
@pylontechsolarbatterystora3979
@pylontechsolarbatterystora3979 Жыл бұрын
Stacking upto 4 on top of each other is fine. Even when using brackets the benefits are negligible. In a us2000c manual , it says 4 can be stacked on top of each other. But if you are uncomfortable then you can vertically stack them making sure they are secured at the top and bottom.

Hi and many thanks for the video - I have a stack of seven 2000's to which I need to add a 5000. I understand that the 5000 has to become the new master - the question is, how is the new stack balanced when there is a mixture? I was told that I had to first fully charge my stack of seven 2000's and then separately charge my 5000 before adding the 5000 to the stack. This sounds awfully laborious and long winded so is there a neater, simpler way please?

@pylontechsolarbatterystora3979 Жыл бұрын
No all you need to do is connect the us5000 set it as a master. Turn the battery’s on, sync them . Then let them balance naturally. Don’t turn your inverter on at this stage. After a couple of hours the bms in the master battery will store the charge state of the other batteries. At this stage turn on the inverter and use as normally. Eventually when there is no sun or extra charge the batteries will reach there minimum SOC and then they will be balanced . No need to charge them up individually, so backwards!

Been fitting my new US5000 today and was wondering as the short leads are a bit too short, whether you can go straight across rather than diagonal as you have the 2nd and 3rd orange leads. I assume it makes no difference. When I got it all wired up I had one of the original batteries flashing the red light. So disconnected the new battery and put everything back to original and still not working, said no AC input and I found the plug labeled GRID was not properly screwed into the Control box. The retaining ring has a bayonet fitting and could never have been properly fitted by the installers and lifting a 40kg battery, must have shaken the fitting loose.

Hi, many thanks for your videos, due to a fault with my Solis inverter my Pylontec US5000 battery has discharged and gone into protection mode with the flashing red light, I have since bought another US500 which is working fine and fixed the inverter as I understand I cannot use the good battery to charge the discharged one as they will not be equal in voltage. Pylontec help centre has suggested I use a battery charger at 53v 2a to bring the discharged battery back up to the voltage of the good battery. As the inverter will only work via the power of the battery and not directly from the grid I am stuck as to what to do. Could you suggest any other way round this as I cannot find advice on this anywhere. Many thanks for your help

@pylontechsolarbatterystora3979 Жыл бұрын
If you can’t externally charge the us5000 as pylontech suggest . Then the only option is to get it replaced by pylontech. The battery may be faulty as normally the inverter can’t just cause the red light. Also when you connect us5000 batteries together , the master will attempt to charge the other battery. If the us5000 still won’t come out of red light mode then it could be just a faulty battery .

Hi many thanks for getting back, we went away for a couple of days and the inverter didn’t put charge into the battery on the overnight cheap rate and as the inverter receives power from the battery only, it took the battery below 5% thus going into protection mode.

Thankyou for this very informative video. I have the same us3000c batteries. Two but bought a third. Connected them up in the same way but left the inverter Power +/- cables and rs485 (for some reason installers used rs485 rather than CAN) disconnected. The two current batteries where at 100%. I then pressed the SW switch on the master in order to balance. Lights all flashed in same way but left over night. In the morning all the LED ights where out except the RUN LED light was flashing alternatiing between each battery. Does this mean the balacing performed correctly? Wan't sure if all the SOC lights should then be all lit the same level. I then turned the batteries off, reconnected the power cables from the inverter + to master, - to Last slave and the rs485. Turned the Isolator switch on but then the inverter asks if I want to add a battery. So is it just a question of re-entering the settings?
