THE REQUIREMENT
The customer requirement called for lithium-ion batteries that can provide at least a minimum 10kWh of power to power sensors and communication equipment inside their sea buoy for 3 days.
The battery drawer in the sea buoy was already determined by the customer and was designed to be able to accommodate different brands.
The batteries must be able to withstand extended temperatures, heat, humidity and also be light enough under 15kg for the crew to do the battery swap 1 by 1 from a boat.
A customised indoor charger with higher charging current was also required to enable fast enough recharging for all the batteries within

THE SOLUTION
After technical consultation with the client, the following proposal was provided and accepted by the client.
8 x 25.6V 50Ah LFP batteries were supplied to fulfil this requirement based on the connection diagram above in parallel along with all the interconnect cables. A customised charger was also supplied with a special current of 25A to enable the client’s indoor charging of their other set of backup batteries within 2 hours as per photo above
