61.44 kWh High-Voltage LFP Battery With Outdoor Cabinet, Air-Con & Fire Protection (IP55)
The Deye GE-F60 is a 61.44 kWh commercial-grade lithium (LiFePO₄) battery cabinet designed for farms, businesses and small commercial sites. It’s a floor-mounted, outdoor-rated (IP55) steel cabinet with built-in air-conditioning, advanced fire detection and aerosol fire suppression, and can be scaled up to multi-hundred-kWh systems.
BSC Renewables can use the GE-F60 as the battery “engine room” for your site, matched with Deye inverters and solar, so it works smoothly with your loads and tariffs.
What is the GE-F60?
The GE-F60 (AU) is a ready-built battery room in a cabinet:
- Inside are 12 lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery modules, each 5.12 kWh.
- Together, they give 61.44 kWh total storage, with about 55 kWh usable energy in typical settings.
- The cabinet is IP55, floor-mounted and designed for outdoor or plant-room use.
- It includes smart controls, monitoring, and safety systems – not just “bare batteries”.
Think of it as a big, industrial battery in a single white cabinet, ready to connect into a Deye hybrid system.
Who is this cabinet best suited to?
As per Deye’s small-scale commercial & industrial ESS brochure, the GE-F60 suits:
- Farms and rural properties with pumps, sheds, cool rooms or workshops
- Shops, cafés, gyms and small factories that run big fridges, HVAC or machinery
- Multi-tenant or community buildings with common-area loads
- Sites wanting serious backup power and bill savings, not just a tiny “home battery”
If your site can easily chew through 30–80 kWh a day, this is the kind of cabinet that starts to make sense.
Why businesses and farms like the GE-F60
1. Big, usable energy – in one cabinet
This model offers:
- Total battery energy: 61.44 kWh
- Usable energy (typical config): about 55.29 kWh
- Battery chemistry: LiFePO₄ (LFP), 12 modules × 5.12 kWh
What that means in plain language:
- Plenty of storage to run night-time loads, cover bad-weather days or provide backup
- Enough capacity to make a real dent in bills for busy sites
- LFP chemistry is stable and long-life, designed for daily charge and discharge
- Plenty of storage to run night-time loads, cover bad-weather days or provide backup
2. Built-in cooling and serious fire safety
Several safety features make this model unique:
- Built-in air-conditioning to keep the battery temperature under control (rated power operation with battery < 40 °C).
- Combustible gas, smoke and temperature detection, plus active exhaust and fire alarm.
- Aerosol fire extinguishing system inside the pack – if a fire is detected, the aerosol system is triggered to put it out.
In simple terms:
- The cabinet looks after its own temperature.
- It’s constantly sniffing for gas, smoke and high heat.
- If something goes wrong, it can raise an alarm, exhaust gases and trigger fire suppression automatically.
This is a big step up from a basic battery bank with a few fuses.
3. Designed for harsh, real-world sites
Deye GE-F60 offers:
- Enclosure rating: IP55
- Operating temperature: –30 to 60 °C (with derating above 45 °C)
- Humidity: 5–85% RH
- Altitude: up to 2000 m
- Mounting: floor-mounted
What you get:
- A cabinet that’s comfortable outdoors or in a plant area, when installed correctly
- Designed to cope with dust, rain and heat, within spec
A solid, heavy unit (~1070 kg) that’s meant to stay put and work for the long haul
4. Long life and bank-grade reliability
This model features:
- Cycle life: ≥ 6000 cycles (at 25 °C, 0.5C/0.5C, 70% end-of-life capacity)
- Recommended depth of discharge: 90–100% depending on test condition
- Warranty: 10 years
What this means for you:
- The system is built for daily cycling over many years, not occasional use
- After thousands of cycles, it’s still expected to have around 70% of its original capacity
The 10-year warranty backs up that it’s meant to be a long-term asset
5. Smart, expandable and “future-proof” friendly
If you are looking to grow, some key standout points include:
- EMS, hybrid inverter and BMS all integrate, with power supply redundancy
- Supports black start and off-grid operation
- Uses CAN 2.0 and RS485 for communication
- Can be expanded:
- Up to 6 GE-F60 cabinets on the DC side, reaching about 360 kWh
- Up to 10 groups in parallel on the AC side, with a full system expansion path up to around 3.6 MWh off-grid in large projects
- Up to 6 GE-F60 cabinets on the DC side, reaching about 360 kWh
For you, as a BSC Renewables client, that means:
- The GE-F60 can start small-commercial scale and still have room to grow if your site expands
- It can support on-grid, hybrid and off-grid designs (depending on how the whole system is set up)
- Everything is designed to talk nicely to Deye inverters and the Deye cloud platform for monitoring and control

- Look at load profiles, bills and operating hours
- Design the full system
- Pair the GE-F60 with the right Deye hybrid inverter(s) and solar capacity
- Make sure switchboard, protection and cabling all follow Deye’s AU docs and local standards
- Decide on on-grid, hybrid or off-grid modes, and any backup/UPS requirements
- Pair the GE-F60 with the right Deye hybrid inverter(s) and solar capacity
- Install and commission properly
- Place and secure the cabinet in a suitable outdoor/plant area
- Connect to the inverter(s) and set up EMS/BMS/inverter communication
