Here is how the battery protection board works for overcurrent protection: 1. Current monitoring: The battery protection board is connected to the positive and negative terminals of the battery pack and monitors the flow of current in real-time by means of a current sensor or current measurement circuit.
A protection device must be sized properly so that the energy flowing from the batteries during the failure will not cause damage to the batteries or other components along the short circuit path. The protection must clear the fault in less than 100 milliseconds. The impedance of the line is mainly resistance and inductance.
Settings can be changed by using the VictronConnect app. 7.1.1. Accessing settings via the VictronConnect app To access and change setting parameters do the following: Click on the settings symbol to go to the battery settings menu. To navigate from the general settings menu to the product settings menu, click on the menu symbol .
Further layers of safeguards can include solid-state switches in a circuit that is attached to the battery pack to measure current and voltage and disconnect the circuit if the values are too high. Protection circuits for Li-ion packs are mandatory. (See BU-304b: Making Lithium-ion Safe)
However, the widespread use of batteries has also brought about current problems, where the presence of overcurrents can lead to catastrophic accidents such as equipment failures, fires, and even explosions. Therefore, overcurrent protection has become a key element in ensuring the safety of battery applications.
In addition to undervoltage protection, it is important to ensure that the battery is discharging a safe current value. Combining undervoltage protection and overcurrent protection will ensure safe operation of the 48-V battery.
BMS Overcurrent Protection: Indispensable for Battery Safety
In summary, the BMS overcurrent protection working principle of a BMS involves monitoring the current within the battery pack in real time, comparing it to a preset safety threshold, and taking appropriate measures to protect the safety of the battery and equipment when an overcurrent event is detected. This BMS overcurrent protection mechanism ...
