Description
Saft’s 28 V Lithium Battery Box (LBB) is an energy storage system made of high-energy Li-ion cells designed to operate in extreme temperatures and provide a high-energy density at a low life-cycle cost. The system was initially developed for the US Army’s Improved Target Acquisition System (ITAS) for the TOW Missile as a replacement of legacy technology to improve power and total cost of ownership. The battery system includes a human-to-machine interface, embedded management software and multiple safety features such as electronic protection and thermal fuses to prevent against charger fault and damage in adverse operating conditions.
