eABC - Advanced Breathing Cap

The Advanced Breathing Cap (eABC) combines battery breathing, venting and thermal run-away detection by hydrogen sensing in one product.

  

Use of an H2 gas sensor for fast and stable detection.

Our compact solution for enhanced battery safety by early fault detection, real time pressure equalization and compliance with BEV safety regulations.
eABC - Advanced Breathing Cap

Benefits & features

  • Enhanced passenger safety & support of regulations (5 min early detection), even when the vehicle is parked​
    • Gas detection near the breathing cap is more reliable & effective compared to stand-alone sensors​
      • Mounting outside the battery enclosure simplifies maintenance &   replacement​
        • Space-saving design & cost-effective solution​​
          • Can avoid risks of integrated sensorics in BMC/other ECUs   (e.g. heat & gas-ingress risks)​
            • Allows air exchange to balance internal & external pressure, water & dust protection​
              • Breathing cap design & sensing can be customized based on battery pack volume and venting design
