| Battery Management AGM / Lithium Battery Monitoring (BATMON / LIONMON) |
| The BATMON Battery Management Interface is a small but powerful tool in managing the battery state during charging and EV operation. The BATMON is fully optoisolated and communicates between the PFC Charger and Power Center systems during Charge and Run states to alleviate many of the pitfalls of building your own Electric Vehicle. Since the battery pack is now under constant observation, reversing cells within a battery are a thing of the past. Some of the BATMON features are: The LVP threshold is 10.7V The OVP threshold is dependent on battery temperature Very low standby current ~ 1mA. The BATMON is calibrated for either AGM or AGM/GEL type temperature compensation pofiles at the factory. The BATMON has an onboard diverter circuit which turns on an external load resistor to keep a battery from being overcharged in a series string. It has a 5A capability, which allows faster charging and safer operation against overcharging. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Just a note, if the clamp circuit does not have enough capability, you can still overcharge a battery with a battery management device. With only a 1-2A clamping capability, batteries can still be overcharged in a series string if a few batteries are weaker than the rest of the pack. careful management is needed to ensure safe charging. |
