=== Charge ===

The BMS Main 3X device manages the parallel connection of the battery modules and the connection of the battery to the charging circuit.

147

148

The device supports the following charging modes:

149

150

1. Charging is always allowed (Always on) – the device ignores voltage and current unbalance of the battery modules and commands to close the charging contactors of the battery modules and the main charging contactor “Charging”.

151

1. Charging is allowed if all battery modules are balanced (Balanced).

152

1. Charging is allowed for most balanced battery modules (Partially balanced). Unbalanced modules are disconnected from the common bus and do not participate in the charging.

153

154

The device controls two processes: **joining battery modules **and **closing the main charging contactor “Charging”**.

155

156

157

The operation of the **joining battery modules** is described by the following steps:

158

159

1. Battery modules are disabled. When the “Join to charge” request is received and the voltage and current unbalance errors (Voltage unbalance (CH), Current unbalance (CH), Charging current unbalance) are cleared, go to step 2.

160

1. Checking the voltage unbalance of battery modules (the duration of the check is set in the settings). If there is no imbalance or errors are ignored (“Always on” and “Partially balanced”), go to step 3, otherwise open all charging contactors, and go to step 1.

161

1. Closing the precharging contactors of the battery modules (optional). Go to step 4.

162

1. Closing the charging contactors of the battery modules. The battery modules are self-balancing. Go to step 5.

163

1. Checking intermodular balancing currents (the duration of the check is set in the settings). If there is no current unbalance (“Current unbalance (CH)”) or errors are ignored (“Always on”), go to step 6, otherwise open all charging contactors, and go to step 1.

164

1. The battery modules are joined. If the “Join to charge” request is cleared or the "Charging current unbalance" error occurs, go to step 1.

165

166

The operation of** closing main charging contactor** is described in the following steps:

167

169

1. Closing the main precharging contactor “Precharging” (optional). Go to step 3.

170

1. Closing the main charging contactor "Charging". Go to step 4.

171

1. The main charging contactor “Charging” is closed. If the "Charge request" is cleared, the battery modules are disconnected, or errors occur, go to step 1.

172

173

174

175

176

In addition to controlling the charging contactors, the charge controller calculates and transmits to the upper-level system the value of the maximum allowable current, which can be used to charge the modular battery (“Charge current limit”). The calculation of the charging current of the entire battery is performed based on the number of battery modules operating per charge and the values of the current limits transmitted by them – total current takes equal to minimum current limit among the modules times the number of modules. Also there is an ability to regulate the total curent such way that each module current does not exceed its current limit.

277

278

Charge/Discharge contactor has two algorithms of operation:

279

280

* Dependent - Charge/Discharge contactor depends on Charge and Discharge algorithms and their signals and behaves as Charging contactor if "Charging" signal is set, otherwise – as Discharging contactor;

281

* Independent - Charge/Discharge contactor is based on its own controller.

282

283

(% class="box warningmessage" %)

284

285

**Warning!**

286

Charge/Discharge algorithms on BMS Main 3X and on battery modules controllers must **be the same**!

287

)))

288

289

The charging/discharging controller supports the following modes:

290

291

1. Charging/Discharging is always allowed (Always on) – the device ignores voltage and current unbalance of the battery modules and commands to close the discharging contactors of the battery modules and the main discharging contactor.

292

1. Charging/Discharging is allowed if all battery modules are balanced (Balanced).

293

1. Charging/Discharging is allowed for most balanced battery modules (Partially balanced). Unbalanced modules are disconnected from the common bus and do not participate in the discharging.

294

295

The device controls two processes: **joining battery modules** and **closing the main charging/discharging contactor**.

296

297

The operation of the **joining battery modules** depends on the signal received:

298

299

* If "Join to charge" is received, joining procedure is done as described in [[Charge>>doc:||anchor="HCharge"]] section;

300

* If "Join to discharge" is received, joining procedure is done as described in [[Discharge>>doc:||anchor="HDischarge"]] section;

301

* If both signals received, "Join to charge" has a priority.

302

303

The operation of **closing main charging/discharging contactor **depends on the signal received:

304

305

* If "Charge request" is received, procedure is done as described in [[Charge>>doc:||anchor="HCharge"]] section;

306

* If "Discharge request" is received, procedure is done as described in [[Discharge>>doc:||anchor="HDischarge"]] section;

307

* If both signals received, "Charge request" has a priority.

308

309

In addition, the charge/discharge controller calculates and transmits to the upper-level system the maximum allowable current value with which the modular battery can be charged ("Charge current limit") and discharged ("Discharge current limit"), as well as the maximum regeneration current value with which the modular battery can be charged during operation under load ("Regeneration current limit"). The calculation of the charge, discharge and regeneration currents of the entire battery is performed based on the number of battery modules operating for charge or discharge and the maximum charge and discharge current values transmitted by them – total current takes equal to minimum current limit among the modules times the number of modules. Also there is an ability to regulate the total curent such way that each module current does not exceed its current limit.

310

311

* "Charge current limit" and "Regeneration current limit" are calculated only if there is "Charge request";

312

* "Discharge current limit" is calculated only if there is "Discharge request".

=== Module balancing ===

351

352

The BMS Main 3X device supports active balancing of battery modules both in the process of charging and in the process of discharging the battery.

353

354

When the battery is charging, balancing is performed by disconnecting the most charged battery modules from the common bus. Before disconnecting the modules, the BMS Main 3X sends a request to the upper-level system (charger) to reduce the charge current to zero, and after the current becomes zero, disconnects the most charged battery modules.

355

356

When the battery is discharging, balancing is performed by disconnecting the most discharged battery modules from the common bus. Battery modules are disconnected only if the battery discharge current has dropped to the threshold value set in the device settings.

357

358

Module balancing is configured in the “Control → Module balancing” section:

In this section:

* Balance on charging – a flag to enable module balancing when the battery is charging;

365

* Delta voltage – a voltage difference at which the most charged modules are switched off (those modules whose voltage exceeds the minimum voltage among the modules by the “Delta voltage” value are switched off), V;

366

* Delta current – a current difference at which the most charged modules are switched off (those modules are switched off, the charge current of which is less than the maximum charge current among the modules by the “Delta current” value), A;

367

* Detection time – a time for module to be estimated as unbalanced, millisecond;

368

* Waiting time – a time the battery modules are in the disconnected state (after this time, the modules previously disconnected during the balancing process are reconnected to the common bus), second;

369

* Balance on discharging – a flag to enable module balancing when the battery is discharging (if flag is enabled operation logic and settings are equal to balancing on charging);

370

* Required discharging current – a value of the discharge current at which the device switches off the most discharged battery modules, A.

=== Power down ===

The BMS Main 3X device can shut down itself if KEYRUN and CHARGE_ON signals are cleared, and if the “Power down request” signal appears.

375

376

To change the parameters of the power down control, select the "Control → Power down" section:
