2. DESCRIPTION Key features of the Lithium-Ion battery system. Easy installation and usage Integrated safety contactor used as second level protection Active and passive balancing control capabilities (depending on connected battery module) Separate CAN-Bus between USER and BMS CAN-Bus network ... -
Page 5: Installation
3. INSTALLATION This product may only be installed by a qualified electrical engineer. 3.1 Safety precautions Be careful when using metal tools in vicinity of batteries. Dropping a metal tool onto a battery might cause a short-circuit and possibly an explosion. Always use isolated tools when working with batteries. - Page 6 WARNING: Never connect loads and chargers directly to the batteries. This can damage the batteries. 3.4.2 Installing Fuses Fuses must be installed on both the battery side and load/charger side of the Lynx Ion BMS. The total value of the fuses in the Distributor on the load/charger side (right side) may not exceed maximum current of the safety contactor (an equal load ratio can be added depending on the application).
- Page 7 Above solution can be used up to 5 batteries maximum. 3.4.4 Series connection of batteries The maximum battery in series is 2. This is because the standard maximum input voltage of the Lynx Ion BMS is 60 VDC. Be sure that the battery state-of-charge is equal for each battery. If the batteries are new then they have an equal state-of-charge.
- Page 8 Connect the network as following: To CAN-bus connection of the Lynx Ion BMS Do not forget the termination resistors at the ends of the CAN-Bus network. 3.4.6 Connecting to NMEA2000 network Use the AUX. CAN-Bus connection of the Lynx Ion BMS, for connection to a NMEA2000 network. For details see the Lynx Ion BMS communication guide.

Page 11: First Power Up
4 FIRST POWER UP Other than below procedure, no configuration is needed. The battery configuration is automatically recognized. 4.1 Power up procedure Make sure that all energy consumers are switched off before starting up the system, because the Lynx Ion BMS will pre-charge the system before closing the safety contactor. - Page 12 5 CONNECTING A VICTRON MULTI OR QUATTRO 5.1 Connection of a Multi or Quattro inverter/charger The Multi and Quattro needs to stop charging when the batteries are fully charged and stop discharging when the batteries are empty. To achieve this the allow-to-charge and allow-to-discharge signal contacts of the Lynx Ion BMS are used. See the switching boundaries document for details about the switching levels for your specific battery.
- Page 13 5.2.2 Connecting 2 or more Multis or Quattros If 2 or more Multis or Quattros are connected to the Lynx Ion BMS then an additional relay needs to be installed to extend the Allow-to-charge and Allow-to-discharge contacts. Example: 2 Multis The Allow-to-charge and Allow-to-discharge will be extended by a relay with 2 separate contacts to control two Multis or Quattros.
- Page 14 5.3 Configuration of a Multi or Quattro To configure the Multi for BMS support, VEConfigure3 is necessary. See the Support & downloads section at www.victronenergy.com for more information on installing VEConfigure3 and updating the Multi to firmware version xxxx200 or higher.
