Pylontech US5000 won't turn on after deep discharge. Can it be revived?

The short answer
Supply 48–53.5 V and charge gently (≤0.05C at or below 45 V); if it doesn't recover, it goes to repair.

Plain explanation

From the Pylontech manual for the US5000: Installer supplies 48–53.5 V. ≤45 V: charge at ≤0.05C. The rest of the checklist is below; work through it in order. Installer only: DC and AC work on a live PV system is dangerous, so owners should note the code and call their installer.

Steps from the source

  1. Installer supplies 48–53.5 V
  2. ≤45 V: charge at ≤0.05C
  3. Above 45 V: ≤0.5C
  4. Doesn't recover → repair via distributor
