3.3 Generally applicable safety measures
WARNING
Spurting cooling fluid!
Skin burning hazard!
Check the tightness of the cooling water system, particularly the pipes, screw joints and pressure
tanks.
Resolve recognisable leakages immediately!
INSTRUCTION
The cooling water must always be actively cooled to ensure the optimum operating temperature.
To achieve the optimum performance, the temperature at the cooling water inlet should not
exceed +20°C. At temperatures higher than this, the cooling water to battery Delta-T does not
reach high enough a level to have a cooling effect!
Furthermore, we recommend the use of a climate compressor for the active cooling of the
battery. At ambient temperatures of > 30°C, the maximum temperature of the battery (+45°C)
can be reached very quickly through operation and recuperation or charging. When the
maximum temperature is reached, charging and/or recuperation is no longer possible!
Even when the optimum operating temperature is deceeded, the capacity of the battery
diminishes continually.
DANGER
Explosion Danger!
Danger to life!
Under no circumstances should you carry out unauthorised work on the battery! This can lead to
the deactivation of security installations and can then lead to fire or an explosion!
Under no circumstances should you link the positive and negative poles with a metal object!
Never heat or burn a cell packet! This leads to the release of toxic fumes and to explosions!
The installation of the battery must take place in an EMI secure environment!
The following safety measures have been developed based on the knowledge of the manufacturer. They are not
complete, they can be supplemented by local and/or country-specific safety instructions and guidelines for accident
prevention!
The system integrator and/or distributor of the device must therefore supplement the present general safety
instructions by country-specific and local guidelines.

WARNING
Overheating!
Fire hazard!
Always end the charging process after the given charging time is up even if the battery has not
charged to 100%! A significant extension of the charging time can lead to overheating and then
to the setting alight of the battery!
Do not use the battery or even the single cell packets for other purposes! This can lead to the
emission of smoke and to fire!
In the case of a defective battery or defective cell packets harmful fumes can occur! So, in
general, make sure that both the charging process as well as any other work on the battery are
carried out in a secure environment with sufficient fresh air supply!
In the case of any recognisable mechanical damage to the battery housing, odour coming from it
or the emission of smoke you must stop operating the battery immediately! In this case, the
battery must not be used again until it has undergone a professional inspection by the
manufacturer!
Always avoid anything which will have serious mechanical implications for the battery! This can
lead to the cell structures being destroyed and this can then lead to short-circuiting or fire!
INSTRUCTION
A high cooling water temperature reduces the life span! So take ongoing care to ensure sufficient
cooling of the device!
Even if the battery has high IP protection, direct contact with water (rain, splashing water) should
be avoided as far as possible while in operation!
Under no circumstances should you put a low-resistance connection between the HV contacts,
the housing contacts and the LV contacts! This will lead to malfunctions and then to the
destruction of the battery!
Before connecting the wiring, ensure that the battery poles are correctly connected! Reverse
polarity can lead to the destruction of both the battery and other devices!
During any charging outside of the vehicle, ensure that the battery is on an even, non-conductive
surface!
Never charge the cell packets at a voltage higher than 4.2 V and never discharge them at a
voltage lower than 2.7 V per cell! This can lead to damage to the cell packets!
Do not connect the battery to other batteries e.g. dry batteries, Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries! These
could have different capacities or voltages and lead to faults in the system!

3.3.3 Instructions for Storage and Transportation
WARNING
Overheating!
Fire hazard!
Avoid storing or operating the device in close proximity to heat sources or direct sunlight! This
will lead to the overheating of the battery and can lead to the cell packets going on fire!
Never store or transport the battery in direct contact with metal objects! This can lead to short-
circuits and then to fire!
Do not store any highly flammable materials or combustible fluids in the direct surroundings of
the device! Sparks at the device connections can set these on fire and lead to explosions!
INSTRUCTION
When storing the battery, the specified ambient temperature must always be adhered to. Storage
outside these temperatures can lead to damage to the cell packets! So the battery must be
stored in a secure environment which is inaccessible to children under the following conditions:
Ambient temperature during a storage time of < 365 days = -20°C to +25°C
Ambient temperature during a storage time of < 90 days = -20°C to +40°C
In general the cell voltage should not fall below 2.6 V. If this is the case, the battery cannot be
switched on again! In this case, a return to service can be carried out only by BRUSA experts!
In general make sure that the SoC level is at around 50% before prolonged shut-down or storage
of the battery! In the case of a complete discharge of the battery, we recommend switching off
the battery and recharging it as soon as possible so that the threshold of < 2.6 V is never fallen
short of!
INFORMATION
The battery is a dangerous good and is therefore subject to special, country-specific packaging
and labelling guidelines! Before sending the battery anywhere, find out about the necessary
transport measures from local logistics services. For instructions on the transporting of the
battery, note the reverse order of chapter 9.1.
The battery may only be sent in the transport box it was delivered in or alternatively in an
equivalent transport box. Should you have any questions, refer to the company BRUSA
Elektronik AG at the manufacturer address given in chapter 4.6.
For safety reasons, the battery should be charged to around 50% (SoC) for transportation. Pay
attention to the charge level during the first installation and in doing so, adhere to the power data
and parameters of your charging device.
For transports after the delivery, BRUSA Elektronik AG assume no responsibility

DANGER
High voltage!
Danger to life!
Under no circumstances should you touch the HV wires and connections without ensuring that
there is no voltage beforehand!
The battery may only be connected by a qualified electrician!
Under no circumstances should you bypass or avoid security installations! Any malfunctions
resulting from this could have life threatening consequences!
Before starting work with the battery, the shut-down of the coupled motor must be ensured! Even
when the HV supply is switched off, a turning motor can still produce voltage!
INFORMATION
Adhere strictly to the following 5 safety rules when working on a HV grid:
Disconnect system from power.
Switch off the ignition.
Remove service / maintenance plug and/or turn off main battery switch.
Remove the fuse (external fuse box).
Ensure that system does not reconnect.
Keep ignition key safe to prevent unauthorised access.
Keep service / maintenance plug safe to prevent unauthorised access and/or
use lockable protective cap to ensure that the main battery switch does not reconnect.
Check that it is not live with a suitable voltage tester (note voltage range!).
Ground and short-circuit the system.
Cover or seal off adjacent live parts.

3.4 Safety installations / power limitations
Charging
If the battery temperature is lower than 15°C, the derating begins till 5°C (reducing current with 10.8A/°C).
If the battery temperature is lower than 5°C, the BMS allows a maximum charging current of 12A till 0°C
Below 0°C the BMS limit the charging current to 0A
To inform you the CAN signal BMS_MODE_TP is emitted.
If the battery temperature is above 35°C, the derating begins till 45°C (reducing current with 8A/°C).
To inform you the CAN signal BMS_MODE_TP is emitted.
Above 45°C the BMS stops the charging process
3.4.1 Temperature Monitoring (Derating)
This security installation is the battery's self-protection. If a cell packet achieves a defined temperature threshold,
this means a decrease in power (derating) to protect the battery from damage through overheating. The power will
subsequently be reduced until the temperature falls back to the target range. If a cell reaches the defined limit, the
current is reduced to 0 A. If the temperature rises despite derating and the defined default values of the battery are
not adhered to, the battery is immediately disconnected from the DC intermediate circuit. Further information on
temperature measurement can be found in chapter 6.6.3 Temperature Measurement / Temperature Monitoring

Discharging
2.5°C before the actual derating, pre-derating begins and reducing the current from 600 A to 320 A
(BATT_CurrentDischargeMax) at a rate of 128 A / °C.
To inform you the CAN signal BMS_MODE_TP is emitted.
5°C before reaching the limit of temperature, the actual derating engages at a rate of 64A/°C reducing the
current to 0 A (BATT_CurrentDischargeMax).

Technical data
and start-up
EVB1-350/400-40-HP
3.4.2 Current Monitoring (Derating)
In the BMS the current is continually measured at 2.5 s intervals. This measurement can be communicated via
CAN (BATT_Current_Act). Alongside this, a second measurement is taken continually at 125 ms intervals, this has
a poorer resolution due to the shorter measurement time (6 A). This parallel measurement makes a very fast
reaction / shut-down possible in the case of an overload. With this, the BMS can recognise a short-circuit within just
6 ms and disconnect the battery from the DC intermediate circuit.

and start-up
EVB1-350/400-40-HP

Step 1: Warning and Limit Reached
As soon as the limit is reached or exceeded, the warning message or CAN signal
MS_War_OverCurrentCharge or BMS_War_OverCurrentDischarge is emitted.
In addition, the CAN signal BMS_MODE_CP is emitted.
Step 2: Limit Reached, Peak Current Duration Exceeded
The maximum discharging current (600 A) can run for a duration of around 10 s. This produces a current field
output (I2t) of 784’000 A2s.
(I
peak
– I
cont
)2 * t = I2t
(600A – 320A)2 * 10s = 784‘000A2s
If this value is reached, the derating mode enters immediately and reduces the discharge current gradually
down to <320 A (discharge cont.).
With a discharge current <320 A, the battery can recover. The longer the recovery period, the longer it can
then be run again with the maximum discharge current (max. 10 s).
It is recommended that the derating of the current be followed (BATT_CurrentDischargeMax).
If the current field output is reached or exceeded (I2t), the battery automatically disconnects from the DC
intermediate circuit and sends an error report or the CAN signal BMS_TErr_DischargeI2t.
Step 3: Maximum Current Exceeded
If the current exceeds a level of 630 A or falls below -130 A, the battery is immediately disconnected from the
DC intermediate circuit.
The CAN signal BMS_Err_CurrentCharge / BMS_Err_CurrentDischarge is emitted.
The current monitoring takes place in three steps:

Technical data
and start-up
EVB1-350/400-40-HP
3.4.3 Monitoring of Cell Voltages
In the BMS the two highest and the two lowest cell voltages are measured at intervals of 1 ms. These are relayed
with the CAN signal CCU_V. Additionally every cell is measured in series at a frequency of around 1 kHz. The
values measured are identified with an index and relayed one after another via CAN CCU_Cell. The following
factors are included in this index:
Number of cells (CCU_Number)
Current index (CCU_Index)
Associated voltage (CCU_V)
Associated Temperature (CCU_T)
The maximum and minimum voltage are averaged over a time frame of 100 ms and are relayed with the CAN
signal CCU_max (CCU_V_LOW_PEAK / CCU_V_HIGH_PEAK). For each voltage measurement, an internal
resistance of 1 mohm per cell is factored in.
Page 20
Technical data
and start-up
EVB1-350/400-40-HP
20
Step 1: Warning
As soon as the cell voltage is larger than 4.10 V, the warning message or the CAN signal
BMS_War_OverCharge is emitted.
This CAN signal indicates that the maximum cell voltage will soon be reached.
Step 2: Limit Reached
If the cell voltage surpasses 4.15 V, the CAN signal BMS_MODE_OVP is emitted.
This CAN signal means that the maximum cell voltage has been reached.
Step 3: Limit Reached and Further Charging of the Cells
If another 0.5 Ah is charged after the CAN signal BMS_MODE_OVP is emitted, the battery immediately
disconnects from the DC intermediate circuit.
The error message or the CAN signal BMS_Err_OverCharge is emitted.
Step 4: Max. Cell Voltage Exceeded
If the cell voltage reaches 4.20 V, the battery will always be disconnected from the DC intermediate circuit
immediately.
The error message or the CAN signal BMS_Err_OverCharge is emitted.
If this is the case, then a general error exists in the battery. A diagnosis must be carried out by qualified
specialist personnel.
INFORMATION
The monitoring of under-voltage takes place in the four specified stages with the following CAN
signals:
Monitoring of the cell voltages takes place in four steps:
3.4.4 Main Fuse of the Battery
The battery has a 600 A DC semiconductor fuse. The main fuse protects the cell packets. The battery cables must
be secured separately over a PDU. As a rule the main fuse will only be tripped through a serious defect or shortcircuit in the battery. If this is the case, the battery must be sent back to be repaired! The replacement of the main
fuse may only be carried out by the company BRUSA Elektronik AG because specialist knowledge is necessary for
this!

EVB1-350/400-40-HP
3.4.5 Contactors in the BMS
The contactors in the BMS (HV+ and HV-) can be controlled by the customer, e.g. via terminal 15. The contactors
disconnect the power supply to the HV cables. This prevents unwanted current flows. This way the vehicle is in a
secure state. To energise the contactors a peak inrush current of 3.7 A per contactor is required.
The contactors are generally automatically closed in the following states:
BMS_Active
BMS_NLG_Charger
In all other states, the contactors are open. The BMS_Precharge state is an exception. In this state the contactors
are closed in coordination. See chapter 6.9 Regulation and Control System.
3.4.6 Emergency Stop Switch
The emergency stop switch must be engaged by the customer. We recommend installation in the passenger
compartment area. The operator (driver) must be able to reach the emergency stop button in any situation. The
emergency stop switch must be installed in such a way that it influences the BMS power contactors directly. The
emergency stop switch must be designed for a continuous current of 1 A and a peak current of 10 A. The
emergency stop switch performs as an opener (on activation the breaking of the circuit takes place).
3.5 Requirements of the Start-up Personnel
All courses of action described in this manual may only be carried out by a qualified electrician! Specialist staff are
defined as electricians who dispose of
professional training,
knowledge and experience in the field of high voltage electronics / electric mobility,
as well as knowledge of relevant requirements and dangers
which they can display in practice. Furthermore, they must be able to assess the work assigned to them
independently, detect possible dangers and establish necessary protection measures.

6.5 Safety measures for vehicle installation
INFORMATION
This safety measure is a recommendation by the company BRUSA Elektronik AG and is understood
as a basic requirement for the safe operation of electric vehicles!
*That’s a special assembling with parallel bus bars in the PDU. If it necessary please contact BRUSA Elektronik
AG 4.6
6.5.1 Principle of operation Interlock
The interlock switch (1) is closed if the corresponding interlock condition of each devices is met (closed service
cover, plugged HV connections ...). The interlock evaluation of the PDU switches the 12V supply voltage (2) of the
HV contactors (4) in the battery if the interlock circuit is closed. The emergency stop switch (3) also interrupts the
12V supply voltage of the HV contactors (4). The second interlock (5) of the line insulation guard interrupts the
interlock circuit, if a fault in the HV- insulation is detected.

6.6 Basic Function Batterie EVB1-400/350-40-HP
The battery EVB1-400/350-40-HP is designed and intended for fast and easy installation in electric vehicles.
Integrated pre-charge switching and the driving via CAN bus enable simple and problem-free integration into an
existing drive train. Through the integrated battery management system (BMS), the highest and lowest cell
voltages are continually communicated via CAN. The individual cell temperatures as well as their states of charge
are also sent this way. This way the entire battery can be continually monitored. If faults or errors occur, the BMS
sends a corresponding signal immediately via CAN to the higher-level control. If this is not reacted to accordingly,
then the battery disconnects itself from the DC intermediate circuit to ensure the battery's secure state. In principle
the battery never actually disconnects from the DC intermediate circuit as long as none of the following limits within
the CAN message Batt_Range are surpassed:
maximum discharging current (CAN signal BATT_CurrentDischargeMax)
maximum charging current (CAN signal BATT_CurrentChargeMax)
minimum battery voltage (CAN signal BATT_Voltage_Min)
maximum battery voltage (CAN signal BATT_Voltage_Max)
The higher than average energy and power density together with the proportionately low weight produce a very
good performance and enable usage in both areas of high performance electric vehicles and in range extender
systems in particular.

INFORMATION
To avoid sparks when switching on, the connected loads are pre-charged with a 50 ohm PTC.
For this process, three independent voltage measurements are used.
The switching on of the battery (switching of the main contactors during pre-charging) is very
easily heard and can therefore be used as a monitor.
The pre-charging resistor is heated up by a succession of repeated (3-4 times) periods of pre-
charging. If overheating occurs then further pre-charging is temporarily not possible. In this case,
the pre-charging resistor must be cooled down over a particular period of time.
1.
Pre-charging contactor (1) closes.
U1 must be at the same level as the sum of the cells (U
batt
). There must be no current flowing.
2.
Main contactor (3) closes.
U2 must rise to the same level as U1 within 5 s. Current < = 4 A.
If the level is not reached, the CAN signal BMS_Err_PreCharge is emitted!

6.6.3 Temperature Measurement / Temperature Monitoring
Step 1: Warning
If a defined temperature value is reached or exceeded, the warning message or CAN signal
BMS_War_OverTemperature or BMS_War_UnderTemperature will be emitted.
Step 2: Reaching of the Limit
If the defined limit is reached or exceeded, this signifies a charging current of 0 A set by derating
The CAN signal BMS_MODE_OTP or BMS_MODE_UTP is emitted.
Step 3: Reaching of the maximum value:
If the defined maximum value is reached or exceeded, the battery immediately disconnects from the DC
intermediate circuit, when a current flows.
The error message or the CAN signal BMS_TErr_OverTemperature / BMS_TErr_UnderTemperature is
emitted.
The temperature measurement takes place over one sensor per cell packet. In this, temperature is measured over
18 sensors in total. The highest (CCU_T_HIGH), the lowest (CCU_T_LOW) and the average temperature value
(BATT_T_AVERAGE) can be emitted as an output value. Along with the voltage value, the temperature value per
cell block is emitted with the relevant index in the message CCU_Cell (CCU_T). In each case, the limit is
CCU_T_HIGH.
The temperature monitoring takes place in three steps:

INFORMATION
Balancing is an operating mode which can be activated after the charging of the battery has taken
place. Efficient balancing can take several hours. In order to avoid the compromising of vehicle use
during this, we recommend that you leave this operation mode running overnight after battery
charging has taken place (this is equivalent to one balancing cycle).
In connection with the BRUSA NLG5 charging device, this operation mode can be automatically
activated. If using another charging device, this operation mode must be programmed accordingly
first of all.
6.6.4 Balancing
During the Balancing, the BMS discharges some cells which have a higher cell voltage in comparison to other cells.
The difference between the lowest and highest cell voltage should optimally be between 20 - 30 mV maximum. A
difference of < 20mV is not possible here. In general, the lower the difference, the higher the capacity of the
battery.
When balancing is being activated, a lower limit (0.1 V under maximum cell voltage) is determined for balancing.
This means that each cell can be reduced by 0.1 V at the most per balancing cycle. Balancing is carried out at a
cell voltage of 4 V with 800 mW capacity. That corresponds to a resistance value of 20 ohms.
Balancing is automatically switched off as soon as the cell voltages are in the optimum range. Balancing can also
be cancelled at any time by the higher level control using the CAN signal BMS_CMD_BALANCING_EN = OFF.
When the battery is in its fully charged state we recommend that you run balancing as soon as there is a difference
value of 50 mV between the cells. From a difference value of 100 mV, it is strongly recommended that balancing is
carried out because at this stage the capacity is already significantly reduced. When the battery is in its discharged
state, difference values within a range of 200 - 400 mV are normal.

6.6.5 Auto-reset of the Ah Meter
This function ensures that, after the battery has been fully charged, the meter resets to 0 Ah (0% DoD). Without
this function, the Ah meter would constantly shift because the battery loss could not be factored into the calculation,
despite being picked up by the Ah meter. Auto-reset is carried out after a short discharging time of 10 As and
through this the meter reading is set to the corresponding value. This value is given using the signal BCM_Ah. The
loss can be read as negative ampere-hours before discharging.

6.8 Dimensions and Installation Information
CAUTION
Damage to the Battery!
The battery may only be installed horizontally (+/- 10°) (HV connections downwards)! A deviating
installation position can lead to damages to the battery!
Even if the battery has a high IP protection, install it well above the fording depth of the vehicle.
Under no circumstances should mechanical changes be made to the battery housing (drilling,
screwing, clamping, use of brute strength and the like)!
The battery housing should not be mechanically loaded on either side in its installed state! Under
no circumstances should objects of any kind be placed or mounted on the cover! This can lead to
the malfunction of the battery!
INSTRUCTION
The battery must always be handled using additional accident prevention measures during vehicle
installation! This can be done for example through the installation of a special safety guard. These
installations must be cleared beforehand with the responsible institution for road safety (e.g. TÜV).
INFORMATION
2 square profile pieces are welded to the underside of the battery. The fixing points can be
individually fitted. On account of the net weight we recommend fixing at least 6 M8 screw joints per
square profile.
The fixing can be done using M8 dimension rivet nuts.

6.8.2 Dimensions
INFORMATION
In principle the battery should be installed in a horizontal position (underside of the battery in a
horizontal direction). A maximum gradient of 10° degrees on each side is permitted here (see
diagram). Installation positions deviating from this hold additional dangers and lead to damage to the
battery!
Larger inclination angles resulting from different driving situations (hill ascent, descent) have no
negative influences because these are only in effect for short periods of time.

DANGER
High voltage!
Danger to life!
The bypassing or short-circuiting of safety installations can result in fatal dangers through high
voltage!
The interlock is a security installation and under no circumstances can it be disabled or bypassed!
INFORMATION
For a continuity check on the HV interlock pins (INT1, INT2), the multimeter must be set to the diode
measurement setting because a bi-directional optocoupler is installed.
INFORMATION
The battery does not react automatically to the interlock signal! This function must be implemented
by the customer by connecting and assessing both pins (pin 19 IL1 and pin 20 IL2) (alternatively via
the BRUSA PDU254)! The shut-down of the battery must therefore take place through the feeding-in
of an external signal (by the customer). As a result, the high voltage connections will be forced to
disconnect immediately! The interlock switch is automatically activated as soon as the service cap is
opened.

9.2 Building HV Supply
PROCEDURE STEP
ILLUSTRATION / OTHER INFORMATION
1.
Insulate 35 mm of the HV cable (1).
Ensure that you do not damage the shielding
braid underneath it!
2.
Shorten the shielding braid (1) by 20 mm.
The cable-side shielding braid (2) must be a
length of around 15 mm.
The building of the HV wiring must be carried out in accordance with the following instructions. Here it is important
that no strands are damaged and that none stick out at the sides on the assembled cable. So check that the screw
connections are correct for each completed cable and that the cable lug is fixed properly (pull test).
For the HV connections we recommend:
A shielded, insulated automotive cable (e.g. Huber & Suhner).
Cable lug, for the type see chapter 4.3 Delivery Contents
To assemble the cable lugs, using the appropriate crimping tool is absolutely necessary!

PROCEDURE STEP
ILLUSTRATION / OTHER INFORMATION
3.
Lead the HV cable (1) through the union nut (2).
Lead the HV cable (1) through the terminal insert (3).
4.
Place the terminal insert (1) with the front edge flush
with the cable insulation (2).
5.
Put the shielding braid (1) over the terminal
insert (2).
During this, the shielding braid (1) may overlap the
O-Ring (3) by a maximum of 2 mm.
Fix the terminal insert (2) in position on the HV
cable, eg with electrical tape (4).
You must absolutely make sure that the
individual strands of the shielding braid (1) do
not jut out over the sealing ring (3) under any
circumstances! Once in the integrated state, this
will lead to leakages and subsequently to the
leaking of water into the BMS!

PROCEDURE STEP
ILLUSTRATION / OTHER INFORMATION
6.
Insulate 16 mm of the HV cable (1).
7.
Assemble the cable lug (1) at the end of the cable.
No strands should stick out at the sides! The crimping must be hexagonal. Ensure that
the crimping has no deformations at the sides
because this will make later installations in the
BMS housing difficult!
8.
Check the secure positioning of the cable lug
manually.
---
9.
Assemble a shrinkage tube (1) on the cable lug (2).
The assembly of a shrinkage tube (1) is
absolutely necessary because otherwise
contacting can result in the BMS housing!
INSTRUCTION
During the layout of the cable take care that
the first part of the cable is at least 5cm
straight before it will be bend to a radius.
INSTRUCTION
If you have to reassembly the cable you have to use a new terminal insert. Otherwise it can cause a
leakage.
The terminal inserts can be ordered from BRUSA Elektronik AG or directly from hummel.com.
NFORMATION
The HV cable is now ready and can be connected to the BMS. Repeat the process with the second
HV cable.

INSTRUCTION
Air pockets in the cooling passage along with generally insufficient cooling of the battery lead to
increased wear!
Ensure that the cooling circuit is always fault-free.
The cooling water must always be actively cooled to ensure the optimum operating temperature. The
temperature of the cooling water should not surpass +20°C. At temperatures higher than this, the
coolant to battery Delta-T does not reach high enough a level to have a cooling effect!
You can find several profiles on the effect of the cooling water temperature on the battery
temperature in chapter 8.3 Temperature / Cooling System .

INFORMATION
The following chapters are only relevant for the use of the battery EVB1 in combination with the
BRUSA NLG513 charger. If you are using another charger then you can obtain this information from
the manufacturer.
10.4 Charging with the NLG513 Charger
10.4.1 Charging via the CAN
In order to drive the charge process via the CAN, the battery control plug and the charger must be completely wired
up. Furthermore, the NLG513 charger must be parameterised in such a way as to enable communication with the
battery. Parameter setting is carried out via the software ChargeStar, which is included in the delivery content of
the NLG513 charger.
The CAN parameters necessary for charging are included in the customer package. The CAN parameters must be
loaded into the software ChargeStar. After the CAN parameters have been successfully loaded, the CAN
communication between the battery and the charger must be established.
As soon as the mains plug is connected, the charger starts and regulates the charging process independently
using the uploaded CAN parameters.
You can find detailed information on this in the NLG513 charger manual.

EVB1-350/400-40-HP
10.4.2 Course of a Charging Process
INFORMATION
By using the BRUSA NLG513 charger, along with being able to control via the CAN, you can also
programme charging profiles using the software ChargeStar.
The following charging profile provides an example of this.
Phase 1 (I1 and U1)
The charging process begins in this phase with constant current (if voltage < U1 and the charger provides this
current). The transition into phase U1 takes place when the defined voltage U1 is reached. Now the voltage is
held constantly at U1 by reducing the charging current. This stage is referred to as Main Charging.
Phase 2 (I2 and U2)
The transition into stage 2 can take place as early as phase I1 or U1 due to one or more conditions. In stage 2
the voltage level U2 is usually larger and the current level I2 is usually smaller than in stage 1. This stage is
referred to as Equalisation Charge.
Phase 3
The switch to stage 3 then takes place when certain requirements are fulfilled. In stage 3 both the voltage
level U3 and the current level I3 are usually smaller than in stage 1. Stage 3 is referred to as Trickle Charging.
