The Altertek LV-BMS is a premium, UK-engineered 65V 16S Intelligent Battery Management System developed specifically for global OEMs and tier-1 system integrators. It provides comprehensive protection, high-accuracy telemetry, and plug-and-play flexibility without the prohibitive NRE engineering costs or development lead times associated with fully custom designs.
Built upon over 15 years of ISO9001:2015 certified energy storage expertise, the LV-BMS integrates critical hardware safeguards and software agility.
Eliminate costly firmware customization cycles. Using our proprietary AlterVU Configuration Software, engineers can modify hundreds of operational parameters in real time. Customize over-voltage, under-voltage, temperature thresholds, balancing behavior, and GPIO triggers through an intuitive graphical dashboard.
Adapt to complex system architecture with built-in expansion ports supporting up to three stacked peripheral modules. Easily incorporate additional hardware protocols including:
Protection against unauthorized configuration changes or IP tampering is engineered into the hardware level:
Compact form-factor engineered for robust mechanical deployment in tight battery enclosures.
