I have a 5K off grid home system with 3 Outback MX 60 charge controllers (controlling solar panels in 3 different sun areas), a Magnum 4448 inverter and 16 6-volt wet cell batteries wired in series and parallel to make 48 volts. I want to convert my wet cell battery bank to a 48 volt LiFePO4 system with 500 amps (or 5 self contained units in a rack mounted system). Questions: Can I use my existing Outback charge controllers to manage the solar panels? Is it possible to just change the settings on the Outback controllers to the correct voltages? What are the wiring suggestions and Rack suggestions for combining 5 48 volt LiFePO4 battery systems? Which 48 volt LiFePO4 batteries are recommended? What Rack is recommended?
