Automotive-grade battery condition monitor for early thermal runaway / thermal propagation detection in Li-Ion batteries.
The BCM1 (Battery Condition Monitor) for Li-Ion batteries is a fully automotive-qualified module for condition monitoring and early detection of thermal runaways.
Its detection method is based on fast recognition and classification of cell outgassing of hydrocarbons / volatile organic compounds (VOCs), electrolytes, and in particular carbon monoxide and hydrogen as lead gases. The BCM1 deploys automotive-proven broadband metal oxide (MOX) sensor technology, capable of detecting these gases.
With LIN or PWM communication, optional humidity and pressure sensors, and various mounting options, the module can be tailored to almost any electric vehicle or smart energy battery environment. Moreover, its low power consumption ensures least impact on battery range.
As a specialist in environmental and flow sensor technology, ScioSense enables companies to use the planet’s resources more sustainably, helping to create a healthier future for all.
