  • Page 11: Modes Of Operation

    ƒ NON-OPERATIONAL MODE When in Non-Operational Mode, the LBAT12150-SB Lithium Battery will not function/operate and cannot be used. This can happen if the BMS detects a malfunction in the Battery’s monitoring and control, or when a deep-discharge has caused cell damage. A deep-discharge occurs when one of the cells is at 1.5 V or lower. This is even possible when the Lithium Battery is at 10 V.

    COMMUNICATION AND FASTON CONNECTIONS PROTECTIVE COVER REMOVAL All FASTON connections can be made in one central place under the Protective Cover. The cover can be easily removed with light force and then re-fitted on when finished installing. CONNECTING THE COMMUNICATION AND FASTON CONNECTIONS CAUTION: Never use the cabling to lift the Lithium Battery, even when the cable clamps are holding it in place.
  • Page 18: Connecting To The Can Bus Interface (For Future Use)

    CONNECTING TO THE CAN BUS INTERFACE (FOR FUTURE USE) IMPORTANT: The CAN Bus Interface is not compatible with REDARC R-Bus devices. CONNECTING THE DATA CABLES The wired communication interface must be used in a bus network topology (see Table 2). Do not use a ring – or a star topology.
  • Page 19: Connecting To The Lin Bus Interface (For Future Use)

    The LIN Bus in the Lithium Battery can also support protocols defined by other manufacturers, this support is extended on a regular basis and prone to change. Please email REDARC to gather information about the supported protocols on the LIN Bus.
  • Page 20 Reserved Reserved for future use The list of supported functionalities will grow in the future and will be available by updating the REDARC Lithium App. The I/O port can service as an input and output feature: Input: When used, the input can measure a digital level between 0 V and 12 V (typical value). When there is 12 V on the input means that the input is made active, 0 V means input not active.

  • Page 25: General Information

    Method 2: Keep at charge temperature by external source. Method 3: Keep at charge temperature source independent. Method 4: No heating. Only one heating method can be used at a time and can be selected using the REDARC Lithium App.
  • Page 26: Battery Balancing

    METHOD ONE: HEAT UP BEFORE CHARGING If one or more cells in the Lithium Battery are below 0°C (32°F) and a charge current is detected, the BMS will prevent the Lithium Battery from being charged. The BMS will then re-direct the power supplied by the charger through the Lithium Battery terminals to power the heater to heat the cells.
