Simpliphi has at least two combinations of specific batteries + SolArk that it 
says are 9540 listed as a combination. See spec sheets/fully integrated systems 
on their site  You may have to dig further to find the actual certificates or 
whatever the AHJ is asking for. Or maybe these aren’t the combinations you’re 
looking for.
