Pylontech Fidus Pro 5.12kWh LiFePO4 Battery, IP65 Self-Heating

• 5.12kWh nominal capacity with 4.86kWh usable energy at 95% depth of discharge.
• Self-heating version supports operation from -20°C to +55°C, with charging and discharging permitted above -10°C.
• IP65 enclosure and C5-M anti-corrosion rating for robust low-voltage battery storage in demanding locations.

Outdoor-ready 48V battery storage with cold-weather support

The Pylontech Fidus Pro FB-L-5.12-EU-Pro is a 51.2V LiFePO4 battery for low-voltage hybrid solar, backup and off-grid energy-storage systems. Its integrated self-heating function is designed to support use in low-temperature environments, while the IP65-rated enclosure offers protection suited to appropriately selected outdoor and challenging installation locations.

Each battery provides 5.12kWh nominal capacity and 4.86kWh usable capacity. CAN and RS485 communications allow integration with compatible inverter systems, subject to confirmation of the inverter’s approved battery protocol and system design.

Key features

• Self-heating version with a stated operating temperature range of -20°C to +55°C.
• 100A maximum continuous charge current and 100A maximum continuous discharge current.
• Peak charge/discharge current of 103–120A for two minutes, or 121–200A for 15 seconds.
• Up to 20 batteries per battery group and up to six strings, with an LV-HUB-V2 required for multi-group parallel connection.
• LED indication as standard, with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi listed as optional.

Where to use the Pylontech Fidus Pro battery

The Pylontech Fidus Pro 5.12kWh battery can be used in compatible 48V solar and battery systems for commercial premises, agricultural buildings, workshops, mobile or remote power applications, and off-grid or backup installations. It is particularly relevant where low ambient temperatures make a self-heating battery configuration beneficial.

This is not a plug-and-play product. A complete installation must include compatible inverter communications, correctly rated DC cabling and protection, battery isolation, suitable mounting and system commissioning. UK expert support is available, and Energian can help arrange installation through trusted partners where required.

Technical specifications

*An LV-HUB-V2 is required for multi-group parallel connection. Each group supports up to 19 batteries.

**Self-heating activates between -20°C and -10°C. Charging and discharging are permitted only above -10°C. The BMS limits current in extreme temperatures.

***Cycle-life data is based on 25°C, a 0.5C rate and 5%–95% state of charge conditions.
