Battery management system meets low-voltage requirements
The c-BMS24X battery management system (BMS) from Sensata handles up to 24 cells in series and 2000 A of continuous current. Targeting low-voltage electric vehicles and energy storage systems, the c-BMS24X offers upgraded software functions that improve vehicle range, uptime, and battery health/performance.
Along with BMS-controlled convenience features, such as battery heater management and automatic sleep mode to consume power, the c-BMS24X extended software provides:
Support for connecting up to 10 battery packs in parallel for flexible battery design and increased safety and serviceability;
Battery swap functionality in parallel battery packs without authorized personnel, allowing the end user of a motorbike to switch the battery;
Improved measurement and prediction of state of charge (SOC), state of health (SOH), and state of energy (SOE);
Added state of power (SOP) estimation for predicting how much power is available for the next 3, 10, and 30 seconds, important for scooters and motorbikes;
Enhanced balancing for cell chemistries, such as lithium iron phosphate (LFP), used in applications that are never fully charged, including energy storage systems and forklifts that operate 24/7.
Sensata is set to launch the c-BMS24X battery management system, under the brand Lithium Balance, at The Battery Show later this month in Stuttgart, Germany.
