Victron Lynx Ion + Shunt 350/600

Victron Lynx Ion + Shunt 350/600

The Lynx Ion is the Battery Management System (BMS) that controls the 24V/180Ah Lithium Ion batteries. It contains the 350A/600A safety contactor, and controls the cell-balancing, charging and discharging of the system. The Lynx Ion will protect the battery pack from both overcharging and depletion.

The Lynx Ion + Shunt contains the safety contactor, and controls the cell-balancing, charging and discharging of the battery system. Also, it keeps track of the State of Charge of the batteries and calculates the Time to Go. It protects the battery pack from both overcharging and depletion. When an overcharge is imminent, it will signal the charging devices to decrease or stop charging. This is done with the VE.Can bus (NMEA2000) compatible, and also via the two available open/close contacts. Same when the battery is nearing empty, and there is no charging capability available it will signal big loads to switch off.
For both overcharging and depletion there is a last safety resort, the built-in 350A or 600 A contactor. In case signalling does not stop the imminent overcharge or depletion, it will open the contactor.
