    LiPo & LiFe, LiTo Battery Management System BMS8T V3.03 Chargery BMS8T is designed special for LiPo,LiFe and LiTo battery pack applied to storage energy system and Electrical Vehicle including E-Motorcycle, E-Scooter and so on. The unit can measure or detect the battery voltage, cell voltage, charge &...
  • Page 3 LiPo & LiFe, LiTo Battery Management System BMS8T V3.03 Special update Add RS232 port, external device can read out all data from BMS8T Improve cell voltage detection accuracy Add over current protection during balancing Add low temperature protection(on LCD unit V3.03) Optimized SOC accuracy, new approaches are voltage based and coulomb counting, consideration the cell impedance at the same time.
  • Page 4: Order Information

    The BMS8T can fit with any lithium battery charger, when any cell over charged, the BMS8T will disconnect charge relay to cut off charge, if fit with CHARGERY charger, need not the charge relay. Only connect CHARGERY charger to BMS8T on COM1, when any cell reach OVP, the charge current will decrease automatically prevent any cell damaged.
