Recommended Steca Solarix PLI 5000-48 setup for the
US2000Bplus, US3000B or PhantomS Li-Ion battery
models
The following setup and settings have been selected through
cooperation between Katek Memmingen GmbH and Pylon
Technologies Co., Ltd. (PylonTech). They represent recommended
values for cyclical applications as are typical in many solar PV
applications with a depth of discharge (DOD) of approximately 80%.
This recommendation is applicable to the
PylonTech US2000B, US2000Bplus, US3000B and Phantom-S battery models. We recommend using at least 4 pcs.

the battery bank and Solarix PLI with a rating of at least 150 Adc (slow). Additionally, it is recommended to use a
surge protector (SPD) on the battery terminals that protects from voltages above 60 to 65 Vdc (example: Citel
DS230S-48DC or similar), as well as on the PV side (Citel DS240S-110DC or similar). If using more than 4 battery
packs (or 3 for the US3000B), make sure to use two battery cable pairs in parallel between the battery and the
Solarix PLIs, each with their own fuses.
Make sure to always follow the requirements and guidelines from the battery manufacturer and verify the
settings with the data sheet of your batteries before applying them. Please contact your retailer in case of
uncertainty. Read the Steca Solarix PLI and battery manuals before applying these settings. Follow your local
regulations.
