Description
The Victron Lynx Smart BMS NG 500 is the battery management heart of a Victron Lithium NG DC system. It manages a bank of the newer Victron Lithium NG (LiFePO4) batteries by monitoring every cell, and it protects the bank through a built-in 500 A safety contactor that disconnects loads or chargers if the primary controls fail. Up to 50 batteries can be combined for a 12 V, 24 V or 48 V system, a much larger capacity than the original Smart Lithium platform allowed.
Beyond protection, the BMS is a complete control and monitoring hub. A built-in battery monitor reports state of charge, voltage, current and historical data in real time, with cell voltages and temperatures readable on a GX device and the VRM portal, plus Instant Readout over Bluetooth for diagnostics at a glance. Allowed-to-charge (ATC) and allowed-to-discharge (ATD) contacts switch external chargers and loads, while DVCC closed-loop control automatically manages compatible Victron inverter/chargers, the Orion XS DC-DC charger and solar charge controllers through a connected GX device.
The Lynx Smart BMS NG slots onto the M10 Lynx Distributor busbar system, monitoring the fuses of up to four connected Lynx Distributors and feeding data to a GX device and the VRM portal. A pre-charge circuit handles capacitive loads such as inverters without external pre-charging, a programmable relay and AUX supply add flexibility, and VE.Can with NMEA 2000 output makes integration into a marine network simple. This NG version is designed specifically for the Victron Lithium NG batteries.
