Informació de seguretat

Please read and understand all safety instructions before installing or operating this product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, serious injury, or property damage.

• Desconnecteu sempre l'alimentació abans de realitzar qualsevol cablejat o manteniment.
• Ensure all connections are secure and correctly polarized. Incorrect wiring can damage the board and battery.
• This board is designed for 4-series 12V LiFePO4 batteries only. Do not use with other battery chemistries or cell counts.
• Avoid short-circuiting the battery terminals or the protection board.
• Install the board in a well-ventilated area, away from flammable materials.
• If the board shows signs of damage or malfunction, discontinue use immediately.
• Seek professional assistance if you are unsure about any installation or operation procedures.

Configuració i instal·lació

The Wisoqu 4S 100A LiFePO4 Battery Protection Board requires careful wiring to ensure proper function and safety. The board comes with a 5P-250mm wiring harness for connecting to individual battery cells.

Esquema de cablejat acabatview

Refer to the following general steps for connecting the protection board to your 4-series LiFePO4 battery pack. Always consult a detailed wiring diagram specific to your battery configuration if available.

1. Prepare Battery Cells: Ensure all four LiFePO4 cells are at a similar state of charge before connecting them in series.
2. Connect Balance Wires: The 5P wiring harness connects to the balance port on the BMS. Each wire corresponds to a specific voltage point on the battery pack (B-, B1, B2, B3, B+).
   • Connect the first wire (often black or B-) to the negative terminal of the first cell (and the overall battery pack negative).
   • Connect the second wire (B1) to the positive terminal of the first cell (and negative of the second cell).
   • Connect the third wire (B2) to the positive terminal of the second cell (and negative of the third cell).
   • Connect the fourth wire (B3) to the positive terminal of the third cell (and negative of the fourth cell).
   • Connect the fifth wire (often red or B+) to the positive terminal of the fourth cell (and the overall battery pack positive).
3. Connect Main Power Wires: Connect the main negative terminal of the battery pack to the B- pad on the BMS. Connect the main positive terminal of the battery pack to the P+ pad on the BMS. The load/charger negative will connect to the P- pad on the BMS.
4. Verifica les connexions: Double-check all connections for correct polarity and secure attachment before applying power.

Principis de funcionament

The Wisoqu 4S 100A LiFePO4 Battery Protection Board continuously monitors the battery pack to ensure safe operation. Its primary functions include:

• Protecció de sobrecàrrega: Prevents individual cells from being charged beyond their safe voltage limit (3.75V ± 0.05V detect, 3.65V ± 0.1V release). This protects against cell degradation and potential hazards.
• Protecció de sobredescàrrega: Stops discharge when cell voltage drops below a safe threshold (2.0V ± 0.1V detect, 2.25V ± 0.1V release), preventing irreversible damage to the cells.
• Protecció contra sobreintensitat: Limits the discharge current to prevent damage to the battery and the board itself (detects at 200A ± 10A, continuous discharge 100A).
• Protecció contra curtcircuits: Immediately cuts off power in the event of a short circuit, protecting the battery and connected devices.
• Equilibri cel·lular: The equilibrium function helps to equalize the voltage across all four cells during charging, ensuring that no single cell is overcharged or undercharged, thereby extending the overall lifespan of the battery pack.

Manteniment

The Wisoqu 4S 100A LiFePO4 Battery Protection Board is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can help ensure its continued performance:

• Inspecció visual: Periodically inspect the board and wiring for any signs of physical damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
• Neteja: Keep the board free from dust, dirt, and moisture. Use a soft, dry brush or compressed air for cleaning.
• Temperatura: Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified temperature range (-30°C to +80°C) to prevent overheating or performance degradation.
• Integritat de la connexió: Verify that all balance wires and main power connections remain secure.

Resolució de problemes

If you encounter issues with your Wisoqu 4S 100A LiFePO4 Battery Protection Board, consider the following common problems and solutions:

• Sense potència de sortida:
  • Comproveu totes les connexions del cablejat per si hi ha fluïdesa o polaritat incorrecta.
  • Verify that the battery pack voltage is within the operational range and not in an over-discharge state.
  • Ensure no short circuit is present on the output terminals.
  • Check if the overcurrent protection has been triggered. Disconnect the load and reconnect after a few moments.
• La bateria no es carrega:
  • Confirm the charger is functioning correctly and providing the correct voltage.
  • Check for overcharge protection activation if any cell voltage és massa alta.
  • Inspect charging connections for proper contact.
• Cells Out of Balance:
  • Ensure balance wires are correctly and securely connected to each cell.
  • Allow sufficient time for the balancing function to work, especially if cells were significantly unbalanced initially.
  • If severe imbalance persists, individual cell charging/discharging may be required before connecting to the BMS.
• Board Overheating:
  • Reduce the load current if it consistently approaches the maximum continuous discharge current.
  • Assegureu-vos que hi hagi una ventilació adequada al voltant de la placa.
  • Verify that the heat sink (if applicable) is properly installed and making good contact with the components.
