Gobel PowerCarol 16 Product Introduction

Gobel PowerCarol 16 energy storage battery

PowerCarol 16 is a 51.2V 314Ah (approx. 16kWh) LiFePO4 low-voltage energy storage battery from Gobel Power. It uses high-performance 314Ah LiFePO4 battery cells in a floor-standing structure with casters on the bottom and handles on the sides. With IP65 ingress protection, it can be installed both indoors and outdoors. Equipped with a high-performance battery management system (BMS) that provides comprehensive monitoring and protection of the battery, it is suitable for household and small commercial & industrial energy storage scenarios.

Product Features​

  • High-capacity energy storage: Rated capacity of 314Ah (approx. 16kWh), meeting household and small commercial & industrial energy storage needs
  • Safe and reliable: LiFePO4 battery cells feature stable chemistry and excellent thermal stability
  • Intelligent BMS management: Real-time monitoring of battery voltage, current, temperature, SOC (state of charge) and other parameters, with multiple protections against overcharge, over-discharge, over-temperature, short circuit, and more
  • Flexible expansion: Supports up to 63 batteries in parallel for easy capacity expansion; parallel addresses are automatically assigned by the system (auto addressing), so no manual DIP switch setting is required
  • Suitable for indoor and outdoor use: IP65 ingress protection with floor mounting, installable both indoors and outdoors
  • Easy to move: Casters on the bottom and handles on the sides allow a single person to move the unit over short distances
  • Online monitoring: Built-in WiFi interface, compatible with the Gobel VRM online monitoring platform, and supports integration with platforms such as Home Assistant and ioBroker
  • Mobile APP management: One-click configuration and upgrades via the Gobel Console APP
  • Standard interfaces: Provides multiple communication interfaces including RS485A/CAN (inverter), RS232 (computer/mobile phone), and RS485B/RS485C (parallel), compatible with mainstream inverters
