Wall-mounted lithium batteries are generally reliable, but occasional issues may arise. Understanding common problems and troubleshooting them can prevent more significant issues down the line.
- Battery Not Charging or Discharging Properly
- Possible Cause: Connection issues, faulty BMS, or temperature extremes.
- Solution: Check connections and cables for any loose or damaged wires. If the issue persists, contact the manufacturer or a technician to inspect the BMS.
- Overheating
- Possible Cause: Poor ventilation, prolonged exposure to high temperatures, or a malfunctioning cooling system.
- Solution: Ensure the battery is installed in a well-ventilated area. Remove any objects blocking airflow and maintain an ambient temperature around the battery.
- Reduced Capacity or Shorter Runtime
- Possible Cause: Battery aging, overuse, or constant deep discharges.
- Solution: Avoid deep discharges by maintaining charge levels between 20% and 80% of the battery’s capacity. If capacity continues to decrease, the battery may need replacement.
- Error Codes and Alerts
- Possible Cause: The battery’s BMS detects potential issues such as overvoltage, undervoltage, or short circuits.
- Solution: Refer to the user manual to understand the specific error codes. Reset the battery if applicable or contact technical support for assistance.
By recognizing these common issues and addressing them promptly, users can extend the life of their lithium batteries and avoid unexpected downtimes.
