5. Never mix different BACS module versions as well as BACS types of measurement cables.
BACS modules differ technically within the revisions. The according measuring cables were specially adapted to the corresponding
revision of the BACS module. If you mix different BACS modules, it will not work in general. In addition, an unfortune combination of
different modules may lead into irreversible damages to the cables and BACS modules.
Before starting to install cables and modules, ensure that you do not have mixed your stock for installation:
Sort modules and measuring cables beforehand.
Rework, maintenance and care
Regularly check the measured values of the modules and the temperature development of the batteries
• … during installation and during the first charge / discharge cycle
During its initialization, BACS performs its own diagnostic measurements to find hidden defects that may occur within combination of
used and new batteries. Until BACS has fully captured the batteries in order to provide a reliably report defective batteries:
As soon as unusual temperature fluctuations and unusual increases are noticed, the according battery should be replaced immediatley.
• … up to 12 hours after complete discharge until depleted
Followed by a regular discharge from a power outage, the most common "termal runaways" occur - a massive increase in temperature
on damaged batteries that can become so hot that leads into acute fire hazard. Statistically there is the highest risk of battery failure with
damage to the electrolyte within the battery can be found significantly inside a time window of 0 to 12 hours after discharge. If the
temperature of the battery continues to increase after a discharge instead of staying the same or slowly decreasing, the charging cycle
should be stopped immediately and the affected battery replaced.
On passing this time window, a battery pack can be regarded as stable - it can be reintegrated into the normal chain of alarm states.
The warnings and issues BACS provides should be taken seriously - Respond in good time!
BACS was designed and developed to extend the service life of accumulators in multiples. BACS will not only inform you with cyclically
status messages that somthing was wrong after deviated behavior is detected at the monitored systems. Thanks to the unique control
technology combined with efficient early warning and alarm functions, BACS will inform you before an incident can harm your system:
You can react before a real incident occurs that may damage your entire system.
Please keep in mind that the patented technologies behind BACS will cushion battery or charge control errors over a period of time from
the first warning, but will not be able to permanently compensate for real defects.
