The Battery Fault Insertion Unit (FIU) provides intelligent switching of cell-simulation channels for the Battery Simulator 1200. The switching capability enables simulation of open-circuit and short-to-rail fault conditions on any cell channel for the purposes of battery management system (BMS) testing. Additionally, a four-wire auxiliary input allows you to connect an external digital multimeter (DMM) instrument to any cell channel for very high-accuracy bypass current and cell voltage measurements. Each FIU provides 24 independently-programmable cell-switching channels for one or two 12-cell Battery Simulator 1200 units. Additional Battery Simulator 1200 and FIU instruments can extend functionality up to 120 series-connected cell channels.

• Voltage Range0.0 to 5.0 V
• Channel TypeSink and Source

The Battery Simulator 1200 provides isolated channels to simulate battery sink and source characteristics often used for testing a Battery Management System (BMS). The instrument can be used standalone with the soft front panel, or integrated into a larger test system. Its proper industrial cooling and cell channel isolation allows units to be easily stacked, providing solutions with over 200 channels of simulation capability. The built-in channel voltage and current readback reduces the need for external monitoring equipment.

• Voltage400 Vrms L-N, 800 Vrms L-L
• Channel sets4

The Energy Storage System (ESS) Performance Test System is used to evaluate, test, and certify the performance of energy storage systems up to 2MW. The system is a configurable platform with over 200 channels of simultaneously measured AC and DC voltages and currents, environmental temperatures, airflow, and communications. Intuitive software provides real-time monitoring and analysis of power, energy and efficiency to adhere with industry standards. The test system interfaces hardware such as load banks, and controls the ESS to simulate utility applications such as peak shaving and frequency regulation.

• VoltageUp to 150V
• Digital I/OTTL, 24V logic

The Mixed-Signal Battery-Test System is an automated test platform designed to meet today’s advanced battery test requirements. The platform is ideal for testing a range of battery cells and packs, and can be used in applications such as research and design, quality control, and end-of-line manufacturing. Its distributed architecture provides a scalable solution with configurable system components to accommodate specific applications.

The BMS Validation System is a configurable platform simulating the essential signals used by Battery Management Systems (BMS) and cell-monitoring modules with the ability to perform environmental testing on multiple BMS units simultaneously. The system implements single-point value testing to evaluate specific BMS functions such as cell over and under voltage scenarios, cell leakage current, lost communications, or faulty system IO.
