Technical FAQs 4

What is a battery management system (BMS)?

The battery management system (BMS) monitors the battery and possible fault conditions, preventing the battery from situations in which it can degrade, fade in capacity, or even potentially harm the user or surrounding environment.

What is a distributed battery system (BMS)?

These individual BMSs are referred to as "nodes," and each node individually monitors, balances, and safeguards its own cells. A distributed network is created by the nodes' interconnection and communication with one another throughout the whole battery system.

What is a battery management system?

The battery management systems monitor the individual cells working status and provide advanced safety features to prevent overcharging, over-discharging, overheating, and short circuit protection. Understanding the fundamentals of custom BMS design is essential for creating reliable and efficient battery solutions.

What is a centralized BMS?

A centralized BMS is one of the most commonly employed architectures. All of the battery cells or modules in a battery pack are monitored and managed by a single controller in a centralized BMS system. The primary functions of a BMS are carried out by this controller, these functions include data collecting, processing, and command execution.
