The heart of the AccESS is the SimpliPhi Power PHI 3.8 kWh 48V 60A power storage modules. The
power storage is modular and expandable. The base level energy storage is 11.4 kWh at 100 percent
state of charge. This is provided by three PHI 3.8 kWh 48V 60A modules – combined in parallel.
Energy storage within the AccESS enclosure can be expanded to 15.2 kWh with the addition of a fourth
PHI 3.8 kWh 48V 60A battery module. The power storage is paired with industry leading battery inversion
and charging technology by Schneider Electric, capable of serving useful household loads. Additional
storage capacity can be achieved by adding another AccESS Energy Storage Cabinet in parallel, side by
side, with up to 12 of the PHI 3.8 kWh 48V batteries.
Available accessories allow for a DC connected PV system up to 4.8 kW, remote system monitoring,
automatic generator start and cellular uplink for wireless, long range monitoring.
2.3.1 – AccESS Core Components
The core components within the AccESS unit include the below listed products. See Figures 2.0 &
3.0 for detail.
• Schneider Electric Conext XW Pro NA or XW+ 6848 NA
o 6.8 kW Continuous Output 120/240 V AC
o 12 kW AC Peak Output – 60 Seconds
• Conext Mini PDP
• (3) or (4) PHI 3.8 kWh Batteries (11.4 or 15.2 kWh)
• Conext System Control Panel (SCP)
o Single point of control and set up for all connected Conext devices.
• Conext Battery Monitor
o Indicates hours of battery-based runtime and determines battery bank state
of charge. Conext Battery Monitor shares key battery bank parameters with
Conext XW Pro or XW+ inverter/charger.
2.3.2 – AccESS Optional Accessories
• Conext MPPT 80 600 (for DC Coupling)
The Conext
TM
MPPT 80 600 solar charge controller offers an industry-first set of
integration features and top performance that allows for large PV array systems to be
easily installed and connected to the PHI 3.8 Battery bank at the lowest overall cost.
Installing one MPPT 80 600 is faster than installing multiple smaller charge
controllers and lowers overall costs further by utilizing fewer PV strings, smaller
wiring and conduit, and by eliminating the need for PV combiner boxes and DC circuit
breakers.
• Conext Gateway
Conext
TM
Gateway is a multi-function communication device that provides an overall
view of system performance for residential power monitoring systems. It also
provides a communications gateway between a network of Xanbus
TM
-enabled
devices and Modbus devices.
• Conext Combox
The Conext™ ComBox is a powerful communications and monitoring device for
installers and operators of Conext solar systems. It features an integrated web
server, enabling graphic displays of system daily, monthly and lifetime energy data to
be viewed using a simple web browser or Android™ tablet device. Installers can
change or configure the settings of Conext devices through the user-interface on the
ComBox and respond to system email alerts promptly. A user-configurable data
logger and integrated FTP server provides the system owner with powerful analytics
tools for data download and analysis. Modbus™ interface on the ComBox links
Conext devices with third party systems through RS-485 or Ethernet ports. For large
multi-cluster systems, the ComBox can be setup in a master-slave configuration.
