The manufacturer's specification sheet identifies the module as a 4.8kWh battery with 4.56kWh usable capacity, 95% depth of discharge, and dimensions of 442 × 420 × 161mm.

Modular & Scalable Storage

The US5000 is designed around a modular rack-mounted architecture. Its 19-inch rack compatibility allows multiple battery modules to be installed together in an organized battery cabinet or rack system.

The specification sheet permits up to 20 US5000 modules in a single string, providing substantial scalability as system energy requirements increase.

Communication & System Integration

The battery provides both RS485 and CAN communication ports for integration with compatible energy-storage equipment and system controllers.

This communication capability allows the battery to participate in managed energy-storage systems where battery status and operating parameters are exchanged between the battery and other system components.

Temperature & Environmental Performance

The US5000 is specified for charging and discharging from −10°C to +55°C, with a storage temperature range of −20°C to +60°C.

The specification sheet lists a humidity range of 5% to 95% RH, non-condensing, and an altitude rating of up to 4,000 metres. The battery has an IP20 enclosure rating, so installation should provide appropriate protection from water and outdoor exposure.

Long Service Life

At 25°C, the manufacturer specifies a design life of 15 years and a cycle life of more than 6,000 cycles. Combined with the battery's 95% specified depth of discharge, this makes the US5000 suitable for applications involving regular cycling as well as standby and backup operation.

Designed for Residential & Off-Grid Energy Storage

The Pylontech US5000 combines a compact rack-mounted format with scalable capacity, high usable energy, multiple communication interfaces, and a long specified service life. Its modular design makes it suitable for residential backup, off-grid solar, and other low-voltage energy-storage systems where additional battery capacity may be added as system requirements grow.
