Technical Specifications

Powerful 16kWh Battery for Load Shedding

The HINA ESS PowerGem Max 16kWh battery provides substantial energy storage for South African households and businesses that require longer backup times and greater power availability during load shedding and electricity outages.

With 16.076kWh of rated battery storage and 90% DOD, the PowerGem Max is particularly well suited to larger homes, offices, shops, farms and commercial properties where a standard 5kWh battery may not provide sufficient backup capacity.

When paired with a compatible hybrid solar inverter, the battery can store excess solar power generated during the day for use at night or when grid electricity is unavailable.

High-Power 51.2V 314Ah LiFePO4 Battery

The PowerGem Max combines a large 314Ah capacity with 51.2V LFP battery technology to deliver both high energy capacity and strong power output.

Its maximum continuous discharge current of 200A makes the battery suitable for demanding energy-storage applications when paired with appropriately sized and configured equipment.

The 8,000-cycle design life further makes it an attractive option for customers looking for a long-term solar battery storage solution.

Smart BMS & Advanced Battery Protection

The integrated Smart BMS manages battery operation and provides multiple layers of protection, including:

• Overcharge protection
• Over-discharge protection
• Over-current protection
• Over-voltage protection
• Temperature protection
• Short-circuit protection
• Reverse-connection protection
• Low SOC protection
• Active charge balancing

The battery also incorporates built-in fire suppression, providing an additional safety feature for residential and commercial energy-storage installations.

Expandable Battery Storage

For installations requiring significantly more storage, the PowerGem Max supports up to 35 batteries in parallel without requiring an additional parallel device, according to the supplied specifications.

Its auto-addressing functionality simplifies larger battery-bank configurations. The system is also designed so that a slave battery dropping offline or returning online does not interrupt the operation of the remaining battery system.

This scalability makes the PowerGem Max suitable for everything from a single 16kWh home battery installation to much larger commercial energy-storage systems.

Compatible Inverters

The HINA ESS PowerGem Max is specified as compatible with inverter brands including Deye, Growatt, Victron, LuxPower, Voltronic, SMA, GoodWe, SOFAR, Sol-Ark, SRNE and MUST.

Actual inverter compatibility, firmware and communication settings should always be confirmed before installation.

Flexible Installation & Remote Monitoring

The PowerGem Max provides multiple installation options, including wall mounting, floor standing and stacking, allowing installers to select the most appropriate configuration for the available space.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity provide convenient remote access and monitoring, while remote firmware upgrade functionality allows the battery software to be maintained without unnecessary on-site intervention.

Ideal Applications

The HINA ESS 16kWh lithium battery is suitable for home solar systems, load shedding backup, large residential properties, hybrid inverter systems, off-grid solar installations, offices, shops, farms, small businesses and commercial solar energy-storage systems.

10-Year Warranty

The HINA ESS PowerGem Max is supplied with a 10-year / 8,000-cycle warranty, subject to the manufacturer's warranty terms, installation requirements and operating conditions.

Its combination of 8,000 cycles, 90% DOD, LFP chemistry and intelligent battery management makes the PowerGem Max a compelling long-term battery-storage option for the South African solar market.
