FAQ: The proper installation the key to success for the BMS function

Over the past two years of supporting the customers with the RT-BMS (and other management solutions), we have learned the most frequent installation faults that can cause the BMS system not to be working properly.

Please note, that one  „missing CBU“ can lead to a damage of the whole battery pack, if operated for a long time without inspection.

The frequent installation faults:

  • Improper cabling of the 10 pin flat cable – the result: some of the CBUs are not find during the boot-up of the whole system.  Solution:  check the flat cable and/or replace the cable if needed
  • Humidity, water drops, and wetness on the CBU boards – the result: oxidation of the CBUs, malfunction of the CBUs. Solution:  the CBUs must be protected against moisture and water.  Please change the installation to allow such a protection.
  • Interference of electric noises on the operation of the CBUs – the result: some of the CBUs may loose the communication with the Master unit.  Solution:  It may be necessary to use a shielded cable, especially for longer parts of the cabling.
  • Improper cooling of the CBUs – see the suggestion here

We strongly recommend you keep checking the operation of the RT-BMS system periodically.  Be sure to contact us for any need of technical support.
