MillenWorks, a strategic business of Textron Marine & Land Systems, an operating unit of Textron Systems, a Textron Inc. company, today introduced its new Battery Management System (BMS) at the SAE 2012 Hybrid Vehicle Technologies Symposium in San Diego. Able to accommodate various Lithium Ion battery chemistries, MillenWorks' BMS can be rapidly deployed to meet specific high voltage energy storage system requirements at the prototype level. MillenWorks is exhibiting its BMS capabilities at Booth 50 in the Town and Country Resort & Conference Center during the two-day SAE symposium, attended by automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and energy storage providers. The BMS optimizes batteries for electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles or grid storage systems by actively integrating multiple data points, including cell voltages, temperature and current, into advanced algorithms that are tailored to cell chemistry and application.
