Smart BMS CL 12-100 and Smart BMS 12-200 — BMS with alternator protection
Country: Netherlands · Model: Smart BMS CL 12-100 / Smart BMS 12-200
The Smart BMS CL 12-100 and Smart BMS 12-200 manage a lithium bank in 12 V systems built on Lithium Battery Smart 12.8 V batteries. They connect a vehicle or boat alternator to the lithium battery and limit its current, which is why they go into motorhomes, motorboats and service vehicles.

Description
One enclosure holds the BMS, an alternator current limiter, a combiner and battery protection. A lithium battery offers little resistance to charging and pulls as much current as the alternator can give. The limiter holds that current at a level where the alternator does not overheat on a long drive. The combiner links the starter battery with the house battery and separates them when parked, so cabin loads cannot drain the starter. If cells go outside safe voltage or temperature, the BMS drops its charge-allowed or load-allowed signal and chargers and loads switch off. The bank can include up to 20 batteries with a total of up to 84 kWh. The figure after 12 in the name is the current class, 100 or 200 A.
How to choose
The CL 12-100 fits a van or small boat with a moderate alternator, the 12-200 a large alternator and a big house bank. If the system runs on 24 or 48 V with a VE.Bus inverter, the VE.Bus BMS covers 9–70 V, controls MultiPlus and Quattro units and handles banks up to 1,500 Ah at 48 V. For high currents on a distribution busbar the Lynx Smart BMS at 500 or 1,000 A with contactor and shunt is the right part.

FAQ
How many batteries does the Smart BMS 12-200 support?
Up to 20 Lithium Battery Smart batteries, up to 84 kWh in total.
What voltage is the Smart BMS CL 12-100 for?
For 12 V systems with 12.8 V batteries. Other BMS units serve 24 and 48 V.
Why does the Smart BMS have an alternator current limiter?
It limits alternator current while the lithium battery charges and protects the alternator from overheating.
Can the starter battery be charged through the Smart BMS?
Yes, the built-in combiner links the starter and house batteries while charging and separates them when parked.
