ALPHA 5 PRO — Compact, Rack-Mount LiFePO4 Energy Module
The ALPHA 5 PRO is a rack-mount LiFePO4 battery module designed for home, off-grid, and commercial energy systems. It pairs a 3.5" smart touchscreen and LED status indicators with CAN/RS485 communications so you can monitor and integrate the battery easily with many popular inverters and system controllers.
Benefits
- Simpler upgrades and fewer extra parts — compatible CAN/RS485 communications make it easy to connect to many inverters and existing systems.
- Know status at a glance — the touchscreen and front-panel LEDs give live battery state-of-charge, alarms, and system info so you can respond quickly.
- Scale to fit your needs — expand up to 15 units in parallel to meet growing energy needs without redesigning the system.
- Less maintenance and long service life — premium cells and a robust BMS reduce replacement frequency and unexpected downtime.
- Safer operation in real conditions — built-in protections and controlled charge/discharge behavior reduce operational risk and simplify system management.
Features
- Communication: CAN and RS485 interfaces for wide inverter and controller compatibility.
- Local monitoring: 3.5-inch smart touchscreen for live data, per-unit status, and settings adjustment.
- Visual indicators: Front-panel LEDs show state-of-charge, operational status, and alarm conditions.
- Parallel expansion: Supports up to 15 units in parallel for higher total capacity.
- Battery chemistry: Uses premium Grade A LiFePO4 cells for energy density and stability.
