Technical FAQs 4

Do lithium ion batteries need a BMS system?

Lithium-ion batteries, especially custom lithium ion battery packs, need a BMS (Battery Management System) to ensure the battery is reliable and safe. The battery management system is the brain of the lithium battery and reports the status and health of the battery. Let’s get a better understanding from this article. What is a BMS System?

What is battery management system (BMS)?

Battery Management System (BMS) is the “intelligent manager” of modern battery packs, widely used in fields such as electric vehicles, energy storage stations, and consumer electronics.

How many batteries can be connected to a BMS?

The maximum number of batteries that can be connected to the BMS is 20. The SmallBMS, VE.Bus BMS V2 and the Lynx Smart BMS can connect to a 12, 24 or 48 V system. The other BMS models can only connect to a 12 V system. The SmallBMS and VE.Bus BMS V2 require that all loads and charge sources are directly connected to the battery.

Why is hardware BMS better than smart battery management system?

The technology of hardware BMS is more stable than smart battery management systems. The software engineer codes the hardware BMS which manages or monitors the battery pack status. The BMS is the brain of the lithium-ion battery. We not only are good at designing and developing the BMS but also inspecting the risks.
