PYLONTECH US5000
A compact 48 V rack battery for self-consumption, backup and off-grid systems, with an integrated BMS and direct inverter communication.
- 4.8 kWh nominal
- 4.56 kWh usable
- 48 V / 100 Ah
- 80 A rated
One intelligent module, a scalable storage system
Each US5000 combines LFP cells, protection and communication. Modules are connected in parallel to increase energy while the master battery exchanges operating limits with the compatible inverter.
- Store4.8 kWh nominal energy per module
- ProtectIntegrated BMS supervises cells, current and temperature
- CommunicateCAN and RS485 interfaces for system integration
- ExpandParallel modules increase available storage capacity
The essentials for professional 48 V systems
95% usable energy
4.56 kWh of usable energy from a 4.8 kWh nominal module helps make full use of the installed capacity.
Rack format
A 442 mm wide module installs in a suitable rack, cabinet or dedicated Pylontech brackets.
Integrated BMS
Cell voltage, current, temperature, charge and discharge limits are supervised inside every battery module.
Inverter communication
CAN and RS485 ports allow the battery and an approved inverter to exchange status and operating limits.
Modular maintenance
Parallel architecture makes capacity extension and module-level service straightforward when the design rules are followed.

Built for flexible residential and light-commercial storage
Solar storage
Self-consumption
Store surplus solar energy during the day and make it available when consumption exceeds PV production.
Backup system
Backup power
Maintain selected loads during a grid outage when paired with a compatible inverter/charger and correctly designed transfer system.
Off-grid design
Off-grid systems
Build a modular 48 V bank for remote homes, telecoms and professional sites without a reliable utility supply.

System integration
Inverter compatibility is a system-level decision
The inverter must support the US5000 battery protocol, the correct CAN cable and the required firmware. Victron publishes a dedicated, actively maintained integration guide for Pylontech US5000(B). For other manufacturers, use their current compatibility list and commissioning instructions.
