The 48V100 K kit is a higher-power, longer-lasting, and lighter-weight

alternative to lead acid battery systems aimed at telecommunications
backup power, behind-the-meter energy storage, solar PV integration, or
other demanding applications. With the 48V100 K kit, system designers
have the freedom to integrate breakthrough battery technology and
robust management with their enclosures and power management
equipment, delivering faster charging, greater reliability, longer cycle life,
and higher overall performance.
The 48V100 K kits consists of two 24 VDC 100Ah battery modules using
the field-proven 20Ah prismatic cells from A123 Systems, a Battery
Control Module (BCM) for advanced battery management, a Current
Sense Module (CSM), and design documentation. Now OEMs and system
integrators can leverage NEC Energy Solutions proven energy storage
technologies in their own integrated power systems.
