Highly efficient power supply and backup power supply solutions to telecommunications, information and industrial technologies.

Battery Monitoring System for Lithium Batteries BMSL



Operation of the monitoring system BMSL is suitable for applications where is required monitoring of battery operation. The utilization of the battery monitoring system will bring to the user information about an upcoming battery failure, prevents back-up system failure due to the poor condition of the batteries and destruction of the entire battery set due to failure of one cell.

 General Features
  • Complex modular monitoring system of battery status
  • Processor control unit
  • Possibility to monitor up to 4 independent battery sets
  • Max. number of monitored cells for one set are together 250
  • Distributed measurement of cells
  • Individual voltage balancing of cell
  • Connection of the external graphic display
  • Fully programmable measuring process
  • Galvanic isolation of measuring
  • Simple connection of measuring modules
  • User friendly interface
  • The ability to view data in the monitoring software application for PC
  • The possibility of clamping to DIN rail and subsequent embedding into a 19 "rack or possibility to be wall mounted

BMSL monitoring system monitors and signals in the real time states of accumulator batteries, for example deep battery discharge, eventually discharging of single cells of the battery set, cell voltage unbalance, excessive discharging or charging currents of the battery set, battery temperature variation from the stated value and other parameters. Overrun of every mentioned parameter can destroy of the battery set, so it is needed to have immediate information about battery status.

By means of a process called Equalization (or Balancing), battery monitoring system BMSL regulates the voltage of each cell. This process serves to calibrate the cell and results optimal capacity and improved lifespan.

The whole system consists of the control unit (MP) and the appropriate number of measurement modules (MM) of the same structural design, current probes (CP), and related number of connecting conductors and conductors of voltage sensors.

The system can be powered directly from the battery. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide the power supply from back-up distribution mains, what enable to situate the battery-monitoring system directly into accumulators´ installation or storage room. Another option is to power the system by an external source

Operating temperature range:
  • -25 °C to 55 °C
Protection:
  • IP20
  • If the location of the monitoring is in a room with open batteries, it is necessary to place the control unit and measurement modules into cabinets with IP54 and to use a CPxxxIP current probe.
