A 30Ah Lithium Battery is the latest Pouch Cell manufactured by Bestgo
Battery. The best thing about these LiFePO4 Lithium Batteries is that they can
be connected in series and parallel to make a 12 Cell Pack
of 12.8V 90Ah 4S3P, 9.6V 120Ah 3S4P, or 19.2V 60Ah 6S2P to configure your
battery pack exactly as you want.
The 30Ah Pouch Cell is
a kind of LiFePO4 cell with good power and energy density, long cycle life, and
ultra-safe design. An advanced Product Database Management System (PDMS) is
deployed to monitor the whole cell manufacturing process. The system will also
help to select the best identical cells for assembling a Lithium Battery Pack
and make sure the cells in the pack will have the best consistency. With our
high-quality Lithium Cells, we can help you build a nice Energy Storage System
for various applications like a UPS power supply, an off-grid solar system etc.
Bestgo Battery is one
of our best Lithium Battery suppliers. Their Lithium Pouch Cells are riding the
crest of a new way of thinking with regards to Energy Storage. They are the new
frontier. Bestgo’s new pouch cells are the ultimate in weight, flexibility, and
life. We are getting glowing reports from a variety of customers who are using
pouch cells in robotics, yard maintenance equipment, undersea vehicles,
research projects, and other applications where they are replacing small
engines. Bestgo’s factory has a production capacity of over a million cells a
month. From a very basic level, here are 8 reasons that we like to use EV Pouch
Cells in Lithium Battery Packs:
1.
Flexibility of
the Lithium Battery Pack
Bestgo offers
completely assembled battery packs with the BMS built in as a standard battery
module. Modules can be assembled in a parallel configuration for increased
capacity, or in a series configuration to increase the voltage. If needed, the
BMS can offer an output cable for communication. These battery modules can be
charged separately or as a whole battery pack if assembled.
2.
Cycle Life
Bestgo has tested a
cell that was randomly picked off the assembly line. After the accelerated
equivalent of more than 12 years (4,400 charge cycles) of constant cycling,
this 10 AH cell still registered about 9 AH. That is a very impressive small
drop of storage capacity after 12 years of about 10%.
3.
Reliability
As an example, a
36-volt pack at 10 AH will only require 12 pouch cells welded together. If that
same application were to use 18650 cylindrical cells, it would require 72
pieces of 1.5 Ah 18650 cells welded together. In a series string if any of the
72 cells have a problem the complete pack will fail. Also 72 cells mean 144
nodes, each node represents one potential fault. So, a cylindrical based pack
is not as reliable as an electrically equivalent pouch cell pack which would
only have 24 nodes. In addition, the pouch cell welding procedure is much more
reliable than welding cylindrical cells.
4.
Improved Energy
Storage
A pouch cell’s energy
storage capacity is much greater in a given physical space in comparison to
cylindrical cells.
5.
Safety
Whenever either pouch
cells or cylindrical cells have internal problems, pressure builds and they
will swell up. In those infrequent situations, pouch cells merely swell up.
Cylindrical cells are traditionally encased in an iron jacket, so that when the
pressure builds within a cylindrical cell whose ends are held captive by other
batteries or the case, they can literally explode which could result in a
dangerous safety hazard.
6.
Weight
Typically, pouch cells
weigh less than the equivalent prismatic or cylindrical battery. The flat pouch
cell energy density is greater than other shaped cells.
7.
Uniformity and
Consistency
Bestgo’s entire pouch
cell line is manufactured by automatic equipment, thus eliminating human error
in hand-made cells. In between each step of the manufacturing process, the cell
is automatically tested which allows every cell to have amazing uniformity and
consistency.
8.
Included PCB
One of the other
benefits to using pouch cells for smaller applications is the fact that Bestgo
can furnish a very effective PCB (Protective Circuit Board) with the pack to
balance the batteries and protect them from over-charging and being over
discharged. For smaller battery applications up to 72 volts, the PCB approach
is far more cost-effective than the more elaborate BMS systems. Each PCB board
will control up to 20 cells.
I’m sure you can see by
now why we are excited by Bestgo Battery Pouch Cells in general and 30Ah
LiFePO4 Lithium Pouch Cells in particular. We hope you can find an application
which these cells would be perfect for. Your energy ideas are what our company
runs on!
