Plug And Play Energy Storage System
Energy storage connectors and cable harnesses. Benefit from minimal field wiring entry and shorter installation times. High-voltage energy storage connectors are the ideal solution for assembling energy storage systems (ESS) based on battery storage modules as a performance infrastructure for decentralized energy supplies.
In order to further reduce the installation time of the ESS and minimize the field wiring effort, and accelerate the assembly of the energy storage system of the battery module, connectors are provided as well as prefabricated cable harness assemblies tailored to the corresponding application. Shown here as a 200A prefabricated cable assembly.
The components are available in cross-sections of 25, 35 or 50 mm2 and cable lengths of 20, 30, 40 or 50 cm and are suitable for temperatures from -50 to +120 degrees Celsius. The materials used are halogen-free and unaffected by ozone.
The voltage is limited between 1.8 kV (25 mm²) and 3 kV (50 mm²) AC and between 2.7 (25 mm²) and 4.5 kV (50 mm²) DC.
The energy storage cable combination ensures optimum safety for battery storage system installations, complying with all relevant technical requirements including EN 45545-2, NF F 16-101 and the new UL 4128 standard for stationary energy storage systems.
Power Connection For energy storage in 300 A Connectors
Higher capacity, lower weight – this sums up the main goals of energy storage system (ESS) development. While previous ESSs were typically powered by 200 A/800 V DC, the application trend is towards higher energy densities. Interfaces for the transmission of voltages from 300 A/1200 V DC and higher are increasingly required. Via 300 A modules as part of the connector series. In this way, ESSs can parallelize power, data and signals in a multi-module interface.
The 300 A module is suitable for connecting new energy storage units, it is equipped with touch-safe contacts and can be connected directly to the busbar or integrated in a drawer storage unit.
'Blind' Pluggable Connections Make Energy Systems More Efficient
Heavy industrial connectors can contribute to the efficient construction of power plants, energy storage and distribution network facilities. Advantages of connectors include the option of quick replacement in case of repairs – for example measuring equipment.
Additionally, pre-tested cable assemblies can greatly speed up power plant installation. Smart interfaces within the control cabinet, connecting control cabinet to switchgear or control cabinet to control cabinet, also increase efficiency. The battery pole connector can be inserted and removed in any orientation. Additionally, they can be rotated 360° when inserted. This makes maintenance and troubleshooting easier. Also, it increases the flexibility when designing the system.
However, connectors are not always easy to use in an energy system environment. This applies especially if the interface is not directly visible or access is restricted for security reasons. Automatically guides both sides of the connector into the correct position for "blind" mating.
Safty And Error-free Installation
Device and cable connectors that are protected against polarity reversal are ideal for use in energy storage systems and provide users with a plug-in connection of memory modules with maximum safety. Because the design complies with all technical requirements. The pin contacts of the battery modules are safe to touch and feature a threaded profile with an M8 thread. The contacts can be mounted on the battery module in a user-friendly manner using a socket wrench. The socket contacts are crimped onto the cable and then inserted and screwed into the sleeve housing without tools.
Save Time And Maintenance Cost
The connectors are available in yellow on the positive side and black on the negative side. Both are additionally mechanically coded to prevent wrong insertion. These characteristics also facilitate service and maintenance. If a cell in a memory module shows degraded performance, it can be shut down and replaced through the appropriate management system. The connector interfaces of adjacent modules simply turn aside when locked to make room for swapping. It is not necessary to interrupt the memory function of unaffected modules.
