KSTAR BluE-PACK 5.1: 5.12kWh High-Cycle LFP Battery

The BluE-PACK 5.1 is the energy core of the KSTAR residential ecosystem. Built using premium CATL cells (the same technology found in top-tier electric vehicles), this battery offers a stable, safe, and highly efficient way to store your solar energy for nighttime use or emergency backup.

Core Technical Specifications

Why the KSTAR 5.12 LFP is a Top Choice

• Safety First: LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) is chemically the safest lithium technology available. It is inherently resistant to thermal runaway (fire) and contains no toxic heavy metals like Cobalt or Nickel.

• Modular Scalability: Need more power? You can easily expand your storage by connecting up to 4 modules in parallel, giving you a total capacity of 20.48 kWh.

• “All-Weather” Durability: With an IP65 rating, this battery can be installed in garages or semi-outdoor areas. It also features a wide operating temperature range (-10°C to 50°C), though charging in extreme cold should be avoided.

• Integrated DC Breaker: Unlike many modules that require external protection, the KSTAR 5.12 includes a built-in 125A DC circuit breaker for added safety and easier installation.

• Advanced Smart BMS: The internal Battery Management System monitors cell voltage, current, and temperature in real-time. It communicates via CAN and RS-485, ensuring seamless integration with KSTAR and other compatible hybrid inverters.

Installation Guidelines for Shantis Designs Solar Customers

1. Mounting: The unit weighs 54kg and is designed for floor-stacking or secure wall-mounting. Ensure the wall structure is rated for this weight.

2. Cable Management: When connecting multiple packs, use the official KSTAR parallel cable kit to ensure balanced charging across all modules.

3. Startup Sequence: Always turn on the battery’s DC breaker before powering up the hybrid inverter.

4. Optimal Environment: To reach the 10,000-cycle lifespan, keep the battery in a dry, ventilated area with a consistent temperature of around 25°C.

5. Firmware: Ensure the battery BMS is updated to the latest version via the KSTAR mobile app to maintain compatibility with your inverter.
