Description

Even when building a battery pack with identical and well matched cells, the
individual state-of-charge of a long string of cells will diverge over time and charge cycling. This is due to small variations in cell
characteristics and localised operating conditions, which can lead to
small differences in self-discharge and load current.

 

Equalising
or balancing a multi-cell pack helps to maximize capacity and service
life of the pack by working to maintain equivalent state-of-charge of
every cell, to the degree possible given their different capacities,
over the widest possible range. Equalising is only necessary for packs
that contain more than one cell in series. Parallel cells will naturally
equalise since they are directly connected to each other, but groups of
parallel wired cells, wired in series (parallel-series wiring) must be
equalised between cell groups.

 

 

Passive equalisation

With passive equalisation, energy is drawn from the most charged cell and dissipated as heat, usually through resistors.

This equalises the state of charge at some fixed point – usually either "top
balanced", with all cells reaching 100% SOC at the same time; or
"bottom balanced", with all cells reaching minimum SOC at the same time.
This can be accomplished by bleeding energy from the cells with higher
state of charge (e.g., a controlled short through a resistor or transistor), or shunting energy through a path in parallel with a cell
during the charge cycle so that less of the (typically regulated
constant) current is consumed by the cell. Passive equalisation is
inherently wasteful, with some of the pack's energy spent as heat for
the sake of equalising the state of charge between cells. The build-up
of waste heat may also limit the rate at which equalisation can occur.

 

 

Active equalisation:

With active equalisation, energy is drawn from the most charged cell and
transferred to the least charged cells, usually through capacitor-based,
inductor-based or DC-DC converters. Active balancing attempts to
redistribute energy from cells at full charge to those with a lower state of charge. Energy can be bled from a cell at higher SOC by
switching a reservoir capacitor in-circuit with the cell, then
disconnecting the capacitor and reconnecting it to a cell with lower
SOC, or through a DC-to-DC converter connected across the entire pack.
Due to inefficiencies, some energy is still wasted as heat, but not to
the same degree.

 

Principle of equalisation:

This module uses adjacent differential voltage equalisation through DC-to-DC
converters. When the adjacent battery voltage difference reaches 0.1V
or more, the internal trigger equalisation work is performed until the adjacent battery voltage difference is within 0.03V. There is adjacent
voltage equalisation both when charging and discharging on the battery
pack.

 

Features:

High-precision energy transfer equalisation;

Exclusive equalization IC;

High current 1.2A energy transfer;

Constantly equalises the battery voltages;

Improves the overall battery pack efficiency;

Reduced battery maintenance costs.

 

Parameters:

Operating voltage range: 2.0V-4.5V.

Universal; suitable for LiPo, Li-Ion, LiFePO4 and LTO batteries.

Equalisation current: Adjacent voltage difference is 0.1V, the equalisation current is about 0.5-0.7A;

Adjacent voltage difference is above 0.2V, the maximum equalization current is 1.2A;

The smaller the differential voltage, the smaller the equalisation current.

 

 

For larger battery packs the modules can be daisy chained together.

Note:

 

The LED is on to indicate that the corresponding two batteries are being balanced.

 

The LED is off, it means that the equalisation has been completed, or the
voltage difference has not reached the starting conditions,

 

If
the LED is flashing, it means that the equalisation has failed to
start, either the cells are not close enough in specifications or there
is a wiring fault.

1x 1.2A LED Active Equaliser (choose the number of cells above)

1x Balancing cable
