3. Design Features & Components

3.1 Battery Management System (BMS)

BMS Monitors

• Cell module voltage

• Battery voltage

• Battery current

• Battery temperature

• Battery state of charge (SOC)

Module Balancing

• BMS performs balancing of cell modules

Protection & Fault Management

• BMS sounds buzzer when fault limits are reached

• BMS generates fault when maximum operating limits are reached

• Fault events cause switch to open and battery to shut down after a 120s delay

Communication Ports

• BMS has an isolated USB and CAN communication.

Data Logging

• Monitoring data

• Fault and warning events

• Logged data is accessed using AES Dashboard software via the USB port (Win32, Win64 supported)

3.2 Fuse
