4.7. CANopen interface

The CANopen interface of the Li-ion battery must be used for CAN balancing and can be used for monitoring purposes.

The Li-ion battery can be monitored using the Battery Monitor software and the Touch Display Screen. (see paragraph 2.8.2)

To use the Battery Monitoring Software, the CAN bus of the Li-ion battery (CON 3) needs to be connected by means of CAN-to-USB interface to the computer on which the monitoring software and the usb drivers are installed.

More information about the CANopen bus can be found at the CiA website: www.can-cia.org.

4.7.1. CAN Bus network topology

The CAN Bus must be used in a bus network topology. Do not use a ring- or a star topology. The maximum CAN bus legnth is limitted because the Li-ion battery has a ﬁxed bitrate of 250kbps.

In Table 6 is an overview of these restrictions.

Bitrate Buslength (L) Max. stublength (S) Accumulated stub length

250 kbps 250 m 11 m 55 m

Table 6. CAN bus speed

4.7.2. Termination Resistors

The CAN bus requires termination at the two ends of the bus. The USB-to-CAN interface may be connected in anywhere to the CAN bus.

Use termination resistors at the end nodes to prevent reﬂections on the line. The value of this resistor should be +/- 120 ohms.

CAN bus power

Due to the galvanic separation between the BMS and the Li-ion battery’s CAN interface an external power supply is needed on the CAN bus.

The CAN bus can be powered through Con 2 (I/O Connection 7) (ﬁgure 17) or the CAN power cable. (ﬁgure 18) This situation may occur when a USB-to CAN interface is directly connected to the Li-ion battery (Figure 17).

1. Connect Pin 1 of Con2 to the + terminal of the Li-ion battery.

2. Connect Pin 7 of Con2 to the - terminal of the Li-ion battery.

4.7.3. CAN balancing

When the Li-ion battery is connected in a series conﬁguration CAN balancing is required. CAN balancing makes sure that all batteries are balanced properly. For this it is necessary that the batteries must communicate with each other. Therefore the CAN bus is used.

CAN balancing works with SB BCI-C1/SB BIB and without SB BCI-C1/SB BIB up to 8 batteries.

Consult the manual of the SB BCI-C1/ SB BIB for more CAN balancing conﬁgurations.

Disconnecting the Li-ion battery

1. Turn off any device or charger the Li-ion battery is connected to.

2. Disconnect the negative wire from the - terminal of the Li-ion battery.

3. Disconnect the positive wire from the + terminal of the Li-ion battery.

5. Battery use

5.1. General information

Warning! Always use a Battery Disconnect device.

Caution! In case of an undervoltage shutdown, charge immediately.

Warning! Follow the safety guidelines and measures of chapter 3

5.2. Charging

Warning! Never charge the Li-ion battery with a charging current larger than 1C.

Warning! Stop charging in case the Li-ion battery switches into alarm mode. (the protection

relay will disengage)

Caution! Charge before use

Caution! Disconnect the charger from the Li-ion battery if it is not used for a long time.

Caution! To preserve the lifespan of the Li-ion battery, use a charger approved by Super B.

1. Connect the charger to the Li-ion battery as described in paragraph 4.6.

2. Charge the Li-ion battery in case of an under-voltage shutdown or if the state of charge drops below 20% to preserve the lifespan of the Li-ion battery.

5.2.2. Charging method

Super B recommends using the following charging method.

Charge Proﬁle Super B Batteries

Figure 19. Charge curve

Bulk phase

In this phase the batteries are charged with a constant current up to the end of charge voltage (Ubulk), If UBulk is reached the charger will automatically switch to absorption phase. The maximum charge current (Imax) for Super B batteries is 1C, however for endurance cycle life Super B suggests to limit the current to C3 (1C = nominal battery capacity, C3 = 1/3 of nominal capacity). On some chargers the maximum charger active time (t0) can be programmed. Super B suggests setting t0 to: t0 = 2*(BTcap / Chcur) Example: Battery capacity = 160Ah, Charger = 80A, Set to to a maximum of 2*(160/80) = 4 hours.

Bulk Phase

Typical Min Max

Imax - - 1C (160 A)

Table 12. Maintenance phase

5.2.3. Battery balancing

The Li-ion battery is automatically balanced during the absorption phase (see paragraph

5.2.2).

During the batteries lifespan, the cells within the Li-ion battery may be unbalanced due to high discharge currents and short ﬂoat charge periods. This may result in a loss of capacity and unbalanced cells. Cells may be equalized by means of the following procedure:

Apply a constant voltage of 14.4V and a current of between 1A and 2A to manually equalize the Li-ion battery.

5.2.4. Reading out the battery’s State of Charge (SoC)

The Li-ion battery’s State of Charge can be read out either by using the BM01, Touch Display, CAN network, or by the analogue output (see further instructions below).

1. Connect Pin1 of Con2 to the Li-ion battery’s + pole.

2. Connect Pin 7 of Con2 to ground.

3. Determine the voltage at Pin 2 of CON2 (see Figure 20). The analog SoC output ranges from 0 to 10 volt, in which 0V corresponds with 0% SoC and 10V corresponds with 100% SoC. The SoC is an indication. Charging currents smaller than 100mA are not used in the SoC calculation.

4. Perform a complete charge cycle to the Li-ion battery through if the SoC indication does not provide an accurate measurement. This will recalibrate the SoC.
