The Victron Energy Lynx Smart BMS 500 NG is an advanced battery management system designed specifically for Victron Lithium NG batteries. It combines battery monitoring, protection, a built-in 500A safety contactor and pre-charge circuitry in a compact module that integrates with the Lynx Distribution system. Bluetooth connectivity and compatibility with Victron GX devices enable local and remote system monitoring.
FEATURES
500A continuous contactor: Provides a remotely controlled main system disconnect and secondary battery protection.
Pre-charge circuit: Helps prevent high inrush currents when connecting capacitive loads, such as inverters.
Integrated battery monitor: Tracks state of charge, voltage, current, cell data and historical information.
Bluetooth connectivity: Configure and monitor the system using the VictronConnect app.
GX and VRM integration: View battery data remotely through compatible GX devices and the VRM portal.
Charge and discharge control: ATC/ATD contacts and DVCC integration help control compatible chargers and loads.
Programmable relay: Can be configured for alarms or supported alternator-control functions.
Auxiliary power output: Supplies up to 1.1A at system voltage for compatible equipment after BMS shutdown.
Lynx Distributor integration: Monitors fuses in up to four connected Lynx Distributors.
Parallel redundancy: Supports installations with up to five compatible Lynx Smart BMS units.
