wCMB
WIRELESS CELL MONITORING BOARD

ME offers a wireless cell monitoring board (wCMB). This product allows the integrator to get rid off all communication harnesses within the battery pack. Maximum flexibility and re-usability of modules can be achieved with this technology. Immersion cooled battery packs benefit from the wireless communication in particular, as sealed cable interfaces are removed.

THE HIGHLIGHTS:

  • High cell voltage measurement accuracy

  • Functional Safety and Security certified wireless communication technology

  • Weight and cost savings on pack level due to reduced wiring and connectors

  • Increased reliability due to reduced number of interconnects

  • wCMB can be integrated with the SBS
