Description

The MG Master LV 24-48V/400A is an all-in-one battery management system for 24 V and 48 V lithium installations on leisure and commercial vessels. It continuously monitors every connected MG battery module over CAN-Bus, balances the cells and keeps voltage, current and temperature inside a safe operating window. If a parameter is exceeded, the integrated safety contactor opens automatically to disconnect chargers and loads, and a hardwired emergency-switch input lets the crew trip the contactor for an external emergency stop. An internal DC busbar sits at the heart of the unit: batteries land on one side and chargers, inverters and electric drives on the other, which cuts cabling and speeds installation. The main contactor is rated for 400 A continuous, and a single Master LV can manage up to 48 RS modules or 96 LFP, HE, UHE or HP modules. M12 and RJ45 CAN-Bus ports carry NMEA 2000 and other selectable protocols, and combined mode lets several units run in parallel for larger, redundant banks.

Which batteries does the Master LV 24-48V/400A support?
It suits 24 V and 48 V MG lithium systems, managing up to 48 RS modules or 96 LFP, HE, UHE or HP modules from one Master LV. Each module has its own slave BMS reporting cell data over CAN-Bus.
What connectors and protocols does this variant use?
It uses M12 CAN-Bus connectors alongside RJ45 ports, so it fits NMEA 2000 networks and other CAN-Bus protocols that are selectable in the BMS software.
Does it provide an emergency shutdown?
Yes. Besides the contactor that opens automatically on a fault, the 24-48V Master LV adds a hardwired emergency-switch connection to open the main contactor for an external emergency stop.
