Page 19: Signals Imu
An internal battery pressure sensor measures the relative pressure in each battery pack. Due to the common gas space in the Nilar bipolar pack design, all the cells in the battery pack have the same pressure. If the pressure is out of the defined range, an alarm will be triggered and communicated to the external battery management system. -
