The Lynx Smart BMS is a dedicated Battery Management System for Victron Lithium Smart Batteries. There are multiple BMS-es available for our Smart Lithium series of batteries, and the Lynx Smart is the most feature rich and complete option. It is available in two versions: 500A (with M8 busbar connections) and 1000A (with M10 busbar connections).

The main features are:

Built-in 500A or 1000A contactor used as a fallback safety mechanism and also suitable as a remote controllable main system switch.
Battery monitor, indicating state of charge percentage and more data.
Pre-alarm signal: provide a warning before the system shuts down due to -for example- a low cell.
Bluetooth for use with our VictronConnect App, for setup and monitoring, including Instant Readout – key data of the BMS at-a-glance.
Local and remote monitoring using a Victron GX device, for example the Cerbo GX or Ekrano GX.

The Lynx Smart BMS is part of the modular Lynx Distribution system.

Victron Energy BatteryProtect 12/24-Volt 100 amp

matt — Fri, 09 Feb 2024 16:26:19 +0000

Victron Energy BatteryProtect disconnects the battery from non essential loads before it is completely discharged (which would damage the battery) or before it has insufficient power left to crank the engine. Victron Energy BatteryProtect is a uni-directional device. It can only deal with current in one direction, so either current to a load, or current from a charger, but not both currents at the same time. In addition to this, current only can only flow from the Battery terminal to the Load terminal. In case of use with a load, the battery connects to the Battery terminal, and in case of use with a charger, the charger connects to the Battery terminal.
