The Pylontech Force-H3 control unit (FC1000) is the central battery management system (BMS) for the Force-H3 high-voltage battery storage and plays a crucial role in the safety, reliability and longevity of the energy storage solution.
Functions and protection mechanisms:
-
Protection against operational risks : The BMS reliably protects the connected battery modules against:
- deep discharge and overcharge,
- Overvoltage during charging,
- Overcurrent during charging and discharging processes,
- over- and undertemperature,
- Short circuit and reverse polarity.
These safety mechanisms guarantee that the battery modules operate efficiently and safely under all conditions.
Flexibility and scalability:
-
Modular configuration : Only one FC1000 control unit is required per battery tower. A tower can contain between 2 and 6 battery modules, allowing flexible storage capacity adjustment between 10.24 kWh and 35.8 kWh per tower.
-
Parallel expansion : The system allows up to 6 towers to be connected in parallel, allowing a maximum total capacity of 215.04 kWh. Each group of battery modules can be configured independently, increasing the scalability of the system.
Compatibility:
-
Wide compatibility : The BMS uses the proven Pylontech communication protocol, which is compatible with over 30 inverter brands, including Victron Energy, Growatt and Solis. A detailed list of compatible inverters is available for download.
Operation and control:
-
Intuitive control panel : The control unit has an LED panel that displays the current operating status of the battery tower. In addition, the communication speed (baud rate) can be set directly on the unit, which increases the flexibility in the integration of the storage system.
