5 m communication cable kit for E60 and E163 batteries in parallel

This communication cable kit is designed for parallel interconnection of ePropulsion batteries. It establishes a critical CAN communication link between battery packs, enabling charge and balancing data sharing, and ensuring battery synchronization within a power bank.

This communication cable has a length of 5 meters.

Yes, the kit includes a 5-metre communication cable and two terminators. These terminators are essential for signal quality and proper operation of parallel battery connections in the E series.

Terminators are essential for maintaining signal quality on the CAN communication network. Without them, the parallel communication system of the E-Series batteries cannot function properly, preventing data sharing and synchronization.

Yes, as an ePropulsion product, this cable is designed for marine applications and is made with materials resistant to marine conditions such as humidity and vibrations.

To install the cable, connect one end to the CAN communication port of the first battery and the other end to the CAN communication port of the second battery. Ensure you install both supplied terminators at the ends of the CAN network, typically on the last batteries in the chain, to ensure proper signal termination.

No, this cable is specifically designed for parallel interconnection of ePropulsion batteries to establish CAN communication for data sharing. It is not intended for series connections.

No, this cable is specifically designed for ePropulsion batteries and uses a proprietary or brand-specific CAN communication protocol. It is not compatible with batteries from other manufacturers.

The weight of this cable is approximately 0.5 kg. It is lightweight and should not impose significant constraints during installation.

If terminators are not used, the CAN communication signal can be disrupted by reflections, leading to communication errors between batteries. This can prevent the system from operating correctly, affecting synchronization and energy management.

This cable allows the connection of two batteries. To connect more than two batteries in parallel, you will need additional cables and a properly configured CAN network. The maximum number of batteries will depend on the overall ePropulsion system and the battery configuration.

CAN communication cables are generally non-polarized in terms of physical connection direction, but it is important to ensure that connectors are correctly inserted into the dedicated ports of each battery and that terminators are positioned at the ends of the network.

After installation, the ePropulsion system (e.g., via your motor’s display or a dedicated app if available) should indicate that the batteries are detected and operating in parallel. LED indicators on the batteries or error messages may also signal a communication issue.

Marine-grade CAN communication cables, such as those from ePropulsion, are typically shielded to minimize electromagnetic interference and ensure reliable data transmission in potentially noisy environments.

It is not recommended to cut or modify the length of the communication cable. This could compromise the integrity of the shielding, the resistance of the conductors, and the quality of the CAN signal, thereby jeopardizing the reliability of communication between the batteries.
