Sageon Shield Standalone Battery Monitor Note: “Cell” can mean either a single battery cell or monoblock. Accuracy: ± 0.5% of measurement. Drift for 1 year: ± 10mV at 0°C to 40°C Resolution: 5mV per cell (2V, 4V, 6V range), 10mV per cell (12V range) Power supply: from SCU (±15V) Maximum distance from SCU: 30 ft.
Sageon Shield Standalone Battery Monitor Secure the wires to the PC Board’s strain relief components using wire-ties. See Figure 2. Note: The default ring lug size is 5/16”. Other battery post adaptor sizes are available; contact factory for more information. Strain Reliefs Figure 11.
Sageon Shield Standalone Battery Monitor 5.3. DIP SWITCH SELECTION OF CELL VOLTAGES Battery configuration is selected via the main menu of the SCU, whereas the cell or monoblock voltage must be selected via dip-switch “Cell V-Select” on the PCB (S2). The following table indicates the DIP-switch setting for different cell/monoblock voltages: CELL/MONOBLOCK VOLTAGE...
Sageon Shield Standalone Battery Monitor As an example, consider a 48V system, and you have three battery strings whose cell voltages you would like to monitor, you need to enter 3 for the number of SBM Batteries. You do not need to tell the SCU the number of SBMs that are required.
