BES LITE is an electrochemical sensor that sends out an alarm when the sensing element is exposed to a predetermined level of battery electrolyte vapor. The operating principle is electrochemical sensing, where the output voltage increases to 5 Vdc from 2.5 Vdc upon exposure to battery electrolyte vapor.
BES LITE is a cost-effective, low-profile, light-weight battery safety detector that uses Honeywell proprietary gas sensing technology to selectively detect battery electrolyte vapor, an indicator of thermal events. This provides an advanced warning of potential thermal runaway in Lithium-Ion battery packs.
BES LITE is designed to detect gases that are typically released during the initial phase of thermal runaway as well as throughout the entire thermal runaway process. This advanced detection capability facilitates the prompt identification of imminent dangers or risks, significantly enhancing safety measures in critical situations. Therefore, the sensor allows for proactive responses that can prevent loss of assets and protection of lives.
