HF Series tower LiFePO4 battery, 14.3–32.2 kWh
A tall, narrow cabinet that stands against the wall — 14.3 kWh to 32.2 kWh at 51.2 V, with the 200 A current needed for a whole-house inverter.

The high-capacity single cabinet
Between 15 and 30 kWh, the choice is usually between stacking several small modules and buying one large cabinet. The HF takes the second route: a single tower, one BMS, one set of terminals, one breaker. Fewer connections means fewer failure points, and a service visit opens one cover rather than four.
The tower carries 280 Ah to 628 Ah cells at 51.2 V. The largest pair, 560 and 628 Ah, are 220 kg cabinets on castors — moving one across a garage floor is a two-person job with a pallet truck, not a lift.
Current, surge and inverter matching
200 A continuous at 51.2 V is just over 10 kW. That covers most whole-house inverters in the 5–10 kW class with headroom for surge. If the inverter is larger, parallel a second tower rather than pushing a single BMS beyond its rating — the BMS will derate on temperature before it trips, and a derated battery looks like a failing battery to the customer.
Thermal behaviour
LiFePO4 tolerates a wider temperature band than lead-acid, but the top of the charge curve is where heat matters. In a garage that reaches 35 °C in summer, mount the tower away from the inverter's exhaust and leave 100 mm behind the cabinet. The BMS reports cell temperature over CAN; if the inverter supports it, set the charge current to drop above 40 °C rather than waiting for the BMS to act.

Applications
Whole-home backup
32.2 kWh covers a house with a heat pump through an evening and a cloudy morning without generator support.
High-surge off-grid
200 A at 51.2 V is 10 kW continuous — enough for a pump start on an off-grid property.
Small commercial storage
Two towers in parallel give 64 kWh for a shop or clinic, in a footprint smaller than a cabinet.
