Introduction
KelvinWeb is a small consultancy. We have been involved with Battery management of Lithium cells for a three years. Prior to this we were involved with data collection, processing with access over the internet.
We have been involved in interfacing Battery systems to various electric vehicles including Busses, Vans, Trucks, Porche, Earth moving equipment. From this knowledge we are in the process of designing a new battery management system that corrects problems in the previous designs I have worked on.
These problems include susceptibility to electrical noise, high BMS current consumption, poor balancing, poor fuel gaugeing..
Hugh Robertson, the Engineer Manager has designed battery systems for a variety of vehicles including the BMS used on the Modec Vehicle, Allied (E7) ZEV taxi, RUF electric Porsche, deutz hybrid vehicle (500v ) Rampini Bus (800v).
