Generac Power Systems PWRcell M3 Installation Manual

Location and Compliance
14 Installation Manual for Generac PWRcell Battery
• Do not install where excessive amounts of water
from roof runoff, landscape irrigation, water sprin-
klers, or sump pump discharge could contact the
enclosure.
• Do not install where water levels may rise and con-
tact the unit.
• Do not install within 3 ft (92 cm) to any door or win-
dow.
• The battery installation location must meet the out-
door working space requirements in NEC Article
110.26
• The PWRcell Battery is not intended for use in
mobile (e.g. RV) or portable applications.
• Do not expose the PWRcell Battery to extreme
temperatures. See Specifications for rec-
ommended and acceptable operating tempera-
tures. Operating the Generac PWRcell Battery
outside of the recommended range may degrade
performance.
• Multiple battery units must be separated by mini-
mum 3 ft (91.44 cm) between the units per NFPA
855.
NOTE: Consider year-round temperature extremes when
choosing a location. In extreme climates, always install
PWRcell Battery in a conditioned space. Generac
recommends installing PWRcell Battery in a conditioned
space regardless of climate.
• See Table 3-2. Ensure minimum clearances are
met.
Compliance
Follow all instructions included in this manual and use
appropriate practices for all product wiring and installa-
tion.
NOTE: It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure
electrical worker safety, including conformance with lock-
out/tagout procedures for servicing PWRcell equipment.
Operating Temperature Range and
Environmental Requirements
The PWRcell Battery can operate within the maximum
ambient operating temperature range. For best perfor-
mance, install the PWRcell Battery in an environment
where ambient temperatures fall within the optimal oper-
ating temperature range. The PWRcell Battery will limit or
halt charge/discharge power at extreme temperatures.
For hotter climates, install the battery out of direct sun-
light. Exposure to temperatures above the optimal tem-
perature range will impact battery performance.
For colder climates, install the battery in a conditioned
space. Exposure to temperatures below the optimal
ambient temperature range will impact battery perfor-
mance.
