4.0 – Program Settings for PHI Batteries
In order to maintain the Warranty, it is critical to ensure that the appropriate settings for the desired Warranty
are programmed in all of the system components. This section will cover the basic concepts and settings
for Magnum Energy equipment.
4.1 – Depth of Discharge
In order to optimize your system’s and your PHI batteries’ performance and life, SimpliPhi Power
recommends programming the equipment settings to maintain the batteries at a maximum 80% Depth of
Discharge (DOD). This qualifies the batteries for the SimpliPhi 10-year / 10,000 cycle Warranty.
Greater DOD is possible but will result in reduced cycle life. To maintain a maximum 80% DOD using
Magnum equipment, a backup grid connection or standby generator (with Magnum Auto Generator Start
device) is required. Refer to the PHI 3.8 kWh Battery Warranty to compare DOD settings and the
associated Warranty.
CAUTION: If a firmware update is executed on Magnum Energy equipment, ALL the settings must
be re-verified. The programmed settings shown in the following tables must be applied based on
desired Warranty/cycle life. 80% Depth of Discharge is recommended.
