It is an integral part of the Lynx Distribution System and offers advanced features such as battery monitoring, contactor management, and Bluetooth communication via the VictronConnect app. The Lynx Smart BMS 1000A is specifically designed to handle up to 1000A continuous current, making it ideal for larger systems with high power demands.

Key Features

Features of the Lynx Smart BMS

Battery Management System

The Lynx Smart BMS is a dedicated Battery Management System for Victron Energy Lithium Smart Batteries. It contains a positive and a negative busbar, a BMS, a contactor and a battery monitor. It is part of the Lynx Distribution system. It can communicate via Bluetooth with the VictronConnect app and can communicate via VE.Can with an GX device.

The Lynx Smart BMS has a status LED and a Bluetooth LED.

VictronConnect app

The Lynx Smart BMS and up to 4 connected Lynx Distributors can be monitored and setup with the VictronConnect app. For more information see the VictronConnect app download page and the VictronConnect manual.

GX device

The Lynx Smart BMS and up to 4 connected Lynx Distributors can be monitored with a GX device. For more information on the GX device see the GX device product page.

The GX device can be connected to the VRM portal allowing for remote monitoring.

For more information on the VRM portal see the VRM page.

Lithium Smart Batteries

The Lynx Smart BMS is a dedicated BMS for the Victron Energy range of Lithium Smart batteries. These batteries are lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries and are available in 12.8V or 25.6V and in a variety of capacities. They can be connected in series, parallel and series/parallel so a battery bank for system voltages of 12V, 24V or 48V can be created. Up to four 12.8V batteries or two 25.6V batteries can be connected in series.

Up to 5 batteries or battery series strings can be connected in parallel.

The Lynx Distribution System

The Lynx Distribution System consist of the following parts:

• Lynx Power In: A positive and negative busbar with 4 connections for batteries or DC equipment.

• Lynx Distributor: A positive and negative busbar with 4 fused connections for batteries or DC equipment together with fuse monitoring

• Lynx Shunt VE.Can: A positive busbar with a space for a main system fuse and a negative busbar with a shunt for battery monitoring. It has VE.Can communication for monitoring and setup with a GX device.

• Lynx Smart BMS: For use together with Victron Energy Smart Lithium batteries. It contains a positive busbar with a contactor that is driven by a battery management system (BMS) and a negative busbar with a shunt for battery monitoring. It has Bluetooth communication for monitoring and setup via the VictronConnect App and VE.Can communication for monitoring with a GX device and the VRM portal.
