Victron Energy Lithium NG batteries are Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO₄ or LFP) batteries available in various capacities with nominal voltages of 12.8 V, 25.6 V and 51.2 V.
They can be connected in series, parallel, or a combination of both to create battery banks for system voltages of 12V, 24V, or 48V.
A maximum of 50 batteries can be used when configuring a bank with 12V or 24V batteries, while up to 25 batteries can be used with 48V batteries. This allows for a maximum energy storage capacity of 192 kWh with 12V batteries, up to 384 kWh with 24V batteries, and 128 kWh with 48V batteries.
Integrated shunt
The battery data (battery voltage, current and temperature) are transmitted to the BMS and evaluated there, i.e. to calculate the state of charge, which can then be read out via VictronConnect or a GX communication centre, or to create and issue specific warnings and alarms.
Automatic setup, monitoring and control via VictronConnect App or a GX device and the VRM Portal
All battery parameters are managed by the BMS automatically. The BMS automatically detects the system voltage and the number of batteries in parallel, series and series/parallel connection. The BMS (from now on Lynx Smart BMS NG 500 A/1000 A, further models to follow) is mandatory and must be purchased separately. Monitoring and control take place via VictronConnect (every BMS model has Bluetooth), a GX communication centre or the VRM Portal. You can view battery parameters such as cell status, cell voltages, battery current and temperatures in real-time. The battery firmware is automatically updated by the BMS.
Easy bracket mounting
Mounting brackets make the installation easier and ensure that the battery is optimally secured against slipping and tipping over.
Increased ingress protection (IP-rating)
The Lithium NG batteries are effectively sealed against dust and can withstand low-pressure water jets, making them suitable for environments where exposure to dust and water is a concern.
Low self-discharge rate
The self-discharge rate has been significantly improved and is now a maximum of 2 % of the battery capacity per month. A low self-discharge rate contributes to the overall performance, longevity, and reliability of the NG batteries.
Our Lithium NG batteries have integrated cell balancing and cell monitoring. The cell balancing/monitoring cables can be daisy-chained and must be connected to a Battery Management System (BMS).
Battery Management System (BMS)
The BMS will:
1. Generate a pre-alarm whenever the voltage of a battery cell decreases to less than 3.0 V.
2. Disconnect or shut down the load whenever the voltage of a battery cell decreases to less than 2.8 V.
3. Stop the charging process whenever the voltage of a battery cell increases to more than 3.6 V or when the temperature becomes too high or too low.
