3 x 8 = 24
3 batteries x 8V = 24V
Try it with 3 batteries first, then series the other 3 and after you have 2 separate 24 v banks, then consider paralleling them.
BE CAREFUL - there is lethal amounts of power stored in the batteries. Hook it up wrong and you have melted battery parts and acid steam all over the place !!Powerfab top of pole PV mount (2) | Listeroid 6/1 w/st5 gen head | XW6048 inverter/chgr | Iota 48V/15A charger | Morningstar 60A MPPT | 48V, 800A NiFe Battery (in series)| 15, Evergreen 205w "12V" PV array on pole | Midnight ePanel | Grundfos 10 SO5-9 with 3 wire Franklin Electric motor (1/2hp 240V 1ph ) on a timer for 3 hr noontime run - Runs off PV ||
