6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Battery control system contactor”

What is a battery contactor?

In a battery the contactors are a switch that can be operated by the control system. They are essentially a relay. These contactors are designed to be able to break (switch off) the circuit under full load (maximum current and at maximum system voltage). There are two main types of contactors: Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC).

What does a contactor do?

Contactors are electromechanical switches that control the connection of battery cells to the external electrical circuit.

What is EVC 250 main contactor?

Therefore, for galvanic separation after turning off the vehicle or in the event of a failure, fuse and relay combinations are used at the interface between the traction battery and the electrical board net. In this article, the EVC 250 main contactor (EVC 250) is presented.

What are the different types of contactors?

There are two main types of contactors: Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC). A NO contactor does not allow current to flow when the actuation circuit is not powered. However, an NC contactor connects the external circuit when the contactor actuation coil is not energized.

What is a welded contactor based battery management system (BMS)?

Welded contactors expose the battery to various failures, including short circuits, overcharging, undercharging, thermal runaway, and a compromised ability of the BMS to protect the battery. Contactor-based BMS are perfect for high current handling and robust applications, such as:

Where are charge contactors located?

Main contactors, pre-charge contactors, and DC charge contactors are mostly located in the battery junction box (or battery disconnect unit). AC charge contactors are likely to be placed in the battery power distribution unit which is adjacent to the onboard charger.
