DCS Lithium Batteries

Deep Cycle Systems (DCS)

DCS deep cycle Lithium Batteries deliver safe lithium iron phosphate (LFP) & Titanate (LTO) energy storage solutions for a wide variety of applications. Our 12V marine batteries are similar-sized to lead-acid batteries, which makes upgrading to DCS Lithium 12V Batteries a simple task, whilst offering six times the battery life and less than a third of the weight of lead-acid batteries.

DCS Lithium Batteries are lightweight yet, due to their superior construction, they are very strong and durable. They are able to withstand extreme levels of vibrations and shocks and are most suited for military, marine & 4WD applications. DCS Lithium Batteries are designed for deep-cycle (cyclic) applications and are completely dry batteries, making them spill-proof, leak-proof, and significantly safer than lead-acid batteries.

DCS uses only the latest A grade lithium cell technologies obtained from specialised manufacturers that are well ahead of the industry in the R&D of lithium cell technologies. DCS designs and engineers each battery pack with attention to detail. We have developed our own range of efficient battery management systems (BMS) that work as the brain inside our battery packs, ensuring the maximum service life with precise cell management.



DCS BATTERY TECH


Here at DCS, designing lithium batteries is not only our bread and butter, but we love this safe, stable, robust, and high-performance cell chemistry so much that we decided to develop our own range of Battery and Cell Management Systems in 2015.



DCS BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:


What was the objective? Well, the reason we embarked on this project was that all the basic Chinese designed BMS’s are just protection boards, and it is hard to call them a BMS when they don’t do any cell balancing or provide any means of programmability for various parameters and cell control.



OUR KEY BMS OBJECTIVES:

  • Continuous 200A
  • Limits internal heat build-up
  • Designed for engine cranking applications
  • Suitable for high temperatures applications
  • Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity
  • Pass MIL vibration testing standards


DCS CELL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:


Having developed such an industry-leading and reliable BMS, it made no sense to combine the cell balancing system together with the BMS. So with our years of experience in designing and maintaining lithium batteries, we have developed a stand-alone Cell Management System to complement our BMS. Cell Management System? What? OK, so there are two ‘theories’ of cell balancing in the lithium world, passive and active. Passive balancing is a cheap and inferior method of cell management as it can burn resistors in an attempt to bleed cell strings. In contrast, active cell balancing is a more complex and efficient balancing technique that redistributes charge between battery cells during the charge and discharge cycles. At DCS, we provide active cell balancing in our battery packs to ensure optimum performance.

Our key CMS objectives:

  • High current movement
  • 3.7A per channel
  • Reliable in harsh environments
  • Withstands maximum current and thermal loads
  • long term reliability
  • Fail-safe design
