The battery management system (BMS) is the electronic system that manages the battery pack and the cells within and is critical for optimum battery performance and safety which means it must operate with a high degree of accuracy and reliability and must be of highly robust construction. However, it must also be compact and lightweight, adding the least possible bulk to the overall battery pack geometry.

Learn more about BMS electronics and the highly compact, lightweight, and flexible connector systems that offers the accuracy, reliability and robust construction needed while offering safe creepage and clearance distance between pins, ensuring no risk of failure.
