LPBF48100-M

BatteryFault

What it means

Single cell overtemperatureIndividual-cell over-temperature fault displayed on the LCD BMS fault code / flag screen (section 4.4). Example screen on page 7 shows '52.0V / C09 / 70%' with the fault icon constant.

Cause: Cells heated above the safe operating temperature. Per section 2.3 the discharging temperature range is -20 to +60 degC and the charging temperature range is 0 to +55 degC.

How to fix it

Restart the unit, if the error persists, contact the repair center.
