  • Page 3: Safety Precautions

    Smart BMS 12-200 1. Safety precautions • Installation must strictly follow the national safety regulations in compliance with the enclosure, installation, creepage, clearance, casualty, markings and segregation requirements of the end-use application. • Installation must be performed by qualified and trained installers only.
  • Page 4: Introduction

    The Smart BMS 12-200 monitors and protects each individual battery cell within the battery and will disconnect the alternator, charge sources or DC loads in case of low/high battery cell voltage or high temperature.
  • Page 5: What's In The Box

    In some cases an interface cable such as a non-inverting or inverting on/off cable may be required, see Appendix A [11]. 2.3. What's in the box • Smart BMS 12-200 • Ground wire with 10mm eye terminal • 2-pin plug with pre-installed wire loop • 3-pin plug for load/charge disconnect and pre-alarm •...

    Smart BMS 12-200 3. Installation and configuration 3.1. Important warning Lithium batteries are expensive and can be damaged due to over discharge or over charge. The shutdown due to low cell voltage by the BMS should always be used as a last resort to be on the safe side at all times.
  • Page 7: Controlling A Battery Charger Via Charge Disconnect

    Smart BMS 12-200 3.2.3. Controlling a battery charger via Charge disconnect • Battery chargers that are not connected to the System+ port must interrupt the charging process in case of imminent overvoltage or overtemperature of the cells. The Charge disconnect output of the Smart BMS can be used for this purpose.

    Smart BMS 12-200 3.3. System examples Below you will find a selection of system examples. Note that there are many other possibilities. It is mandatory to study Appendix A [11] as there can be different types of cable interfaces within a product group to control chargers, inverters and inverter/chargers from the Load and Charge disconnect outputs of the BMS.
  • Page 9: Installation

    Smart BMS 12-200 3.4. Installation Before installation, make proper system design considerations to avoid unnecessary connections and to keep cable lengths as short as possible. See also the System examples [6] chapter. 1. Preferably mount the Smart BMS on a vertical surface for optimal cooling.
