Built on the same hardwareand software platform as Nuvation High-Voltage BMS for grid-attached energy storage, this low-voltage BMShas been built to stringent reliability standards andprovides unparalleled user access and control.Extends Battery Life – Communicates with powerconversion systems to deliver optimal charge cyclingEnsures Battery Safety – Identifies cells that needservicing or replacement or are being operated outside manufacturer specifications. Initiates preventiveaction to protect the battery and ensure safe operationBalances Cells – Provides passive balancing for lithium-ion and other battery chemistriesBrowser-Based User Interface – Platform agnostic (Windows , Linux , iOS , mobile) operator interfaceallows user to view system performance, take down or bring up stack(s), view faults and warnings,update BMS firmwareBuilt-In Wi-Fi Option – Optional built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support, no external modules requiredHighly Configurable – Over 1000 configuration settings deliver highly optimized battery performance ona wide range of battery platforms, and enable custom-tuning of the BMS for target applicationsCustomizable – Nuvation can add client-specific support and functionality to the BMS to deliver additionalfeatures without additional hardware
nuvationenergy.comNuvation Low-Voltage BMS MESA ConformanceNuvation BMS is conformant with the MESA-Device/Sunspec Energy Storage Model.MESA (mesastandards.org) conformant products share a common communicationsinterface that exposes all the data and control points required for operating an energy storage system. This enablesNuvation BMS to be integrated with other MESA-conformant energy storage hardware or software without the needfor custom middleware.Technical SpecificationsSupports total stack voltage ranging from 11-60VDCCell voltage taps support up to 16 cells or four 12V monobloc batteriesSupports up to eight temperature sensorsExternal communications support for Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, and CANMultiple stacks can be connected in parallel using an additional hardware moduleMonitors battery stack current via an external temperature-compensated inline current shunt for high accuracyControls up to four contactorsIncludes protection from overvoltage and reverse battery connectionFour general purpose inputs and four general purpose outputsSupports firmware upgrades over EthernetContactor(System Monitor/Charger/Inverter/Site Controller)Modbus TCPCANModbus RTUBattery StackContactor9-60VDCPwrContactor51.2V 16s LFP Single Stack System with Charger and Contactors

BMSTMNuvation Low-Voltage BMS nuvationenergy.comTarget ApplicationsNuvation Low-Voltage BMSTM is designed for highreliability energy storage applications. It includes robustcommunications support and can be easily integrated intobattery packs.Telecom Backup PowerInterfaces to the BMS are isolated from the battery, which enables the BMS to beintegrated with any battery pack regardless of its grounding topology.Nuvation Low-Voltage BMS is chemistry-agnostic and can be used to managelead-acid battery charging to optimize cell life, as well as to perform remotemonitoring of the energy storage unit. This reduces the need to send servicepersonnel to remote telecom towers simply to test the health of the backup battery.Nuvation BMS can identify cells in need of replacement, which is viewable from anycomputing device or monitoring station.Customization OptionsFor clients who need additional customization, Nuvation’s BMS engineering team provides systemintegration services and client-specific customizations such as higher or lower stack voltage input,different connector types, custom form factors, ruggedized enclosures such as IP65, added displaycapability, hardware and software additions, and support for any other special requirements.Mobile RobotsNuvation BMS can connect and disconnect powerpath contactors, which eliminates the need toinclude a separate power path controller in themobile robot.It also includes user-configurable GPIO (generalpurpose input / output) that can communicatewith a variety of subsystems and be used to controlstatus indicators, or perform functions such asdisconnecting the contactors after the battery is fullycharged.
Nuvation Low-Voltage BMS nuvationenergy.comSafety and ReliabilityDual independent processors monitor each other to identify potential unsafe/faulty operation in theBMS. Each processor utilizes independent hardware channels which may be configured to open thecontactors in the event that one processor fails, to prevent battery cell damage and unsafe operation.Specialty VehiclesNuvation Low-Voltage BMS can be used to manageboth the traction batteries and auxiliary energystorage systems of specialty vehicles. It is availablewithout the enclosure to simplify integration into thevehicle battery system, or Nuvation Energy can createa custom enclosure for a specific target configuration.The non-proprietary CAN interface can be integratedwith most vehicle CAN interfaces, enabling theintegration of Nuvation BMS with vehicle chargers,dashboard gauges, motor controllers, etc.Behind-the-Meter Energy StorageNuvation Low-Voltage BMS can manage multiple battery stacks byconnecting a BMS module to each stack to enable parallelization. This highlyoptimized approach to parallel stack management enables the cost-efficientscaling of storage applications from kilowatt-hours to megawatt-hours.Conformance with the MESA-Device Specifications / SunSpec EnergyStorage Model means that Nuvation BMS can be easily connected to andcommunicate with other SunSpec-conformant products such as inverters andsolar chargers without the need for any custom middleware.
