"The crew at Intelligent Controls is top-notch. As a Victron installer, I cannot emphasize how important it is to have a distributor that knows their products inside and out, and is excited to share that knowledge. They are always willing to help troubleshoot and solve the challenging electrical puzzles I present, and make sure I have everything I need to complete an installation when I place an order. Working with them is always a pleasure."

The CAN-bus Temperature Sensor is a battery temperature sensor for the Buck-Boost DC/DC converter range and is an essential accessory when the Buck-Boost DC/DC converter is connected to a LFP lithium battery.

Temperature sensing is needed when LFP lithium batteries are charged at low temperatures. The charge current to a lithium battery has to be reduced once the battery temperature drops below 5 degrees and the charge current has to stop when the temperature drops below zero.

The CAN-bus Temperature Sensor takes care of this. It measures the lithium battery temperature and sends this to the Buck-Boost DC/DC converter. The Buck-Boost DC/DC converter will reduce or stop charge when the battery temperature drops too low.

In addition, the CAN-bus Temperature Sensor can also be connected to the temperature sensor terminal in a MultiPlus or Quattro inverter/charger, so that the Multi or Quattro can reduce or stop charging when the battery temperature drops below a certain threshold.
