Appendix D – PHI Legacy Battery Parameters
SimpliPhi’s legacy batteries have previously been associated with different operating conditions and limitations than those
outlined in Section 5.0 of this manual. While PHI Battery operation according to those previously published parameters is
not harmful to the PHI Battery and does not void legacy batteries’ warranties, SimpliPhi recommends the following operating
conditions for increased PHI Battery system optimization:

Table C.2 – Operating Limitations
• 60A Discharge Rate (10 minutes maximum)
• Levels are typically @ 25°C and may need adjusting at temperature extremes.
• When performing rapid deep charge/discharge cycles, the PHI Battery should be allowed to “rest” 15 mins in between.
