Battery Monitoring System

BMS

The Battery Monitoring System (BMS) monitors the battery cells of an on-board hybrid power source to provide real time information to a Monitoring System. The Battery Drawer Supervisor (BDS) measures voltage and temperature from the batteries and communicates the information to the Battery Monitoring Control Unit (BMCU) which can supervise up to 84 BDS.
