- | Note that the ZCell is currently only available | + | The Redflow ZBM2 battery is a 48V 10kWh DC Zinc-Bromide hybrid flow battery |
- | ==== Compatible Victron products ==== | + | An overview of the technical specifications of this battery are provided here: |
- | * All 48V Multis and Quattros. | + | https:// |
- | * All 48V solar chargers | + | |
- | * Adding a Color Control GX is recommended but not required | + | |
- | ==== Charge profile ===== | + | **Important** information about installing and configuring ZBM2 systems with Victron Energy products is provided here: |
- | - Charge voltage 57.6V (up to 50 Amps per battery, and current per battery self-limits if you limit the voltage) | + | https:// |

- | | + | ==== ZBM2 / ZCell Characteristics ===== |
+ | * Low fire risk: No exothermic reaction if exposed to fire, and with water-based fluid electrolyte that is intrinsically fire-retardant | ||
+ | * Designed to be charged up to 100% SOC and discharged right down to 0% SOC (and zero volts) on a daily basis with no damage and while maintaining full energy cycle output capacity over the battery lifetime | ||
- | ===== Color Control GX ===== | + | ==== ZBM2 / ZCell Configuration |
+ | * Clusters of multiple Redflow batteries are automatically controlled using the Redflow BMS to orchestrate their discharge cycles and maintenance cycles for maximum energy availability and maximum operating efficiency and effectiveness. | ||
+ | * Interface to the GX from the Redflow BMS using CANBus just like any other modern ' | ||
+ | * Always turn on DVCC mode in the GX to allow voltage and current settings to be controlled via CANBus by the BMS (no need to set any battery voltage or current limits in VE.Configure) | ||
