Challenge for Maxwell
The client’s objective was to find and implement a cost-effective, high-performance Battery Management Systems (BMS) for a low-volume requirement, within weeks before the launch. They needed the expertise of a BMS partner who could bring in advanced technology to significantly improve the battery capacity, flexibility to customize the BMS, and offer active end-to-end support through each of the product deployment stages.
Moreover, the team needed over 300 reliable battery management systems within a span of 13weeks, including successful product testing and validation.
Solution - Riding The Electric Transition
ION’s disruptive battery management system and intelligence platform proved to be a game-changer for the client. Our unparalleled approach was to offer not just a product but a platform and a dedicated engineer-ing team, that made it possible to constantly monitor, measure and effectively accelerate the battery’s capacity in real-time.
Our BMS helped with:
Measuring crucial information regarding the performance of the battery – temperature, current, voltage
Evaluating key parameters – State of Charge (SOC) & State of Health (SOH)
Managing and protecting the battery from operating outside the Safe Operating Area (SOA)
Configuring over 170 parameters to significantly optimize the battery performance and overcome the critical cell balancing challenge
Product deployed
System voltage range 12 - 900VDC
Cells managed per board 9-15 cells (FSLT-15S)
Cells managed per system 6-340 cell modules in series
Communication CAN 2.0 A&B for system integration Bluetooth 4.1 for Android dashboard
Customer Testimonial
We are thrilled with the response to our launch! We found ION Energy to beextremely reliable and their solution was smarter and technologically advanced.We’ve seen compelling improvement in cell balancing and battery performance.ION’s platform worked exceptionally well and was 5x better than our existing BMS!
