Electrical systems are complex and critical to heavy-duty vehicle performance. The BMS-100 Battery Management System enables continuous electrical system monitoring of a heavy-duty vehicle’s entire battery and electrical system while in operation.
Ideal for managing no-idle loads, the BMS-100 system offers:
Relays to switch auxiliary batteries into and out of tractor battery charging system
Customizable software for battery loads and system profiles
Integrated pins provide connections to auxiliary batteries, starting batteries, CAN Bus communication, and customer-provided relays/solenoids
LED to indicate system status
Electronics are potted to provide protection against environmental damage
The BMS-100 system provides the following information:
Tractor starting battery voltage
Auxiliary battery voltage
Current draw to and from auxiliary battery pack
System temperature (battery characteristics are affected by temperature changes)
Auxiliary batteries State of Charge (% of charge remaining) and State of Health (% of initial full capacity remaining)
Run time remaining at battery instantaneous current draw
