In case a battery (normal condition or damaged) needs disposal or needs
recycling, it shall follow the local recycling regulation (i.e. Regulation (EC) Nº

techniques to achieve a relevant recycling efficiency.
Storage, Maintenance and Expansion
1) It is required to charge the battery at least once every 6 months, for this
charge maintenance make sure the SOC is charged to higher than 90%
2) Every year after installation. The connection of power connector,
grounding point, power cable and screw are suggested to be checked.
Make sure there is no loose, no broken, no corrosion at connection point.
Check the installation environment such as dust, water, insect etc. make
sure it is suitable for IP20 battery system.
3) A new battery module can be added onto an existing system at any time.
Please make sure the new battery is acting as the master. The new module,
due to a higher SOH may have a difference on SOC with existing system,
but it will not affect the parallel connection system performance.
