Victron Energy VE.Bus BMS

The Victron Energy Description:

The VE.Bus BMS protects each individual cell of a Victron lithium-iron-phosphate (LiFePO4 or LFP) battery.
Each individual cell of a LiFePO4 battery must be protected against over voltage, under voltage and over temperature. Victron LiFePO4 batteries have integrated Balancing, Temperature and Voltage control (acronym: BTV) and connect to the VE.Bus BMS with two M8 circular connector cord sets.The BTVs of several batteries can be daisy chained. Please see our LiFePO4 battery documentation for details.

The BMS will:
Shut down or disconnect loads in case of imminent cell under voltage.
Reduce charge current in case of imminent cell overvoltage or over temperature (VE.Bus products only, see below).
Shut down or disconnect battery chargers in case of imminent cell overvoltage or over temperature.

Protects 12V, 24V and 48V systems

The operating voltage range of the BMS: 9 to 70V DC.

Communicates with all VE.Bus products

The VE.Bus BMS connects to a MultiPlus, Quattro or Phoenix inverter with a standard RJ45 UTP cable.

Other products, without VE.Bus can be controlled as shown below:

Load Disconnect

The Load Disconnect output is normally high and becomes free floating in case of imminent cell under voltage. Maximum current: 2A.

The Load Disconnect output can be used to control

• the remote on/off of a load, and/or
• the remote on/off of an electronic load switch (Battery Protect)

Charge Disconnect

The Charge Disconnect output is normally high and becomes free floating in case of imminent cell over voltage or over temperature. Maximum current: 10mA.

The Charge Disconnect output can be used to control

• the remote on/off of a charger and/or
• a Cyrix-Li-Charge relay and/or
• a Cyrix-Li-ct Battery Combiner
