MISE EN GARDE: Tous les systèmes de décharge ou de charge ne peuvent pas être modifiés par une
programmation. Un mauvais dimensionnement du groupe de Batteries PHI par rapport à la décharge
maximale ou du taux de charge du système, détruira les Batteries PHI et Annulera la Garantie.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to charge the PHI Battery below 32° F (0° C). Attempts to charge at subfreezing
temperatures can adversely affect SOH and cycle life and will Void the Warranty.
MISE EN GARDE: Ne pas charger la Batterie PHI en dessous de 0° C (32° F). Tout chargement à des
températures de congélation peuvent nuire à l’état de santé et la durée de vie de la batterie, et Annuleront la
Garantie.
4.0 – Installation
4.1 – Installation Options
The PHI 3.8-M Battery can be mounted in practically any orientation (terminals up or on any side), with no impact to
the performance of the PHI Battery. Do not install the battery upside down, with the terminals facing the floor.
4.2 – Environmental Considerations
4.2.1 – Charging at Temperatures Below Freezing
It is important to take necessary steps to determine the temperature of the PHI Battery prior to charging the battery, as the
battery may otherwise be adversely impacted.
4.2.2 – Explosive Gas Precautions
PHI Batteries are not ignition protected. To prevent fire or explosion, do not install this product in locations that require
ignition-protected equipment. This includes any confined space containing vented batteries, or flammable chemicals such as,
natural gas (NG), liquid petroleum gas (LPG) or gasoline (Benzine/Petrol).
Do not install in a confined space with machinery powered by flammable chemicals, or storage tanks, fittings, or other
connections between components of fuel or flammable chemical systems.
PHI Batteries do not vent any harmful gasses and do not require special ventilation or cooling.
4.2.3 – Anti-Corrosion Protection
Anticorrosive compounds or epoxies are occasionally used in harsh or marine climate installations. Please consult your
electrician or
qualified installer to determine if this is advisable, and if so, what solution best suits your application.
CAUTION: Not all system discharge or charge characteristics can be mitigated via programming. Under-
sizing a PHI Battery bank relative to the system’s maximum discharge or charge rate will destroy the PHI
Batteries and Void the Warranty.
