Briggs & Stratton battery pack

The Vanguard 10kWh commercial lithium-ion battery pack from Briggs & Stratton, Milwaukee, is the largest battery pack in the Vanguard lithium-ion lineup, allowing for up to 100kWh of energy when paralleled with 10 other packs.

Featuring a steel roll cage design, the pack provides maximum protection and was rigorously tested and validated to operate in any environment, including extreme temperatures, impact, vibration, moisture and dirt, the company says.

The pack’s battery management system (BMS) constantly monitors and measures the pack’s temperature, charge and discharge currents and voltages of each individual cell bank to ensure a safer battery option. The pack also features smart technology, allowing it to track its own power and energy utilization and state of health. Customers can use this information to know precisely how much life is left and get the full value out of their battery, while end users also can use the power and energy data to track how their machine is used and find more efficient ways to use it.

The battery pack features two customizable CANbus networks that integrate with legacy systems, and a prequalified and plug-in-ready sharing system can be mounted on- or off-board.
