APEX offers a unique built in LCD display for anytime monitoring, and an advanced real time battery management system. The APEX B-12Kalso integrates seamlessly into your existing APEX eco-system.

Energy storage is a critical component for a comprehensive power backup solution and to ensure you can enjoy solar self consumption if you are using renewable energy sources (i.e. allowing solar energy storage for night time usage). There are many types of batteries in the market and it is critical to understand that quality plays a large role in day-to-day usage and lifespan of a battery (also known as battery cycles). When considering life cycles of a battery one should also take note of the capacity that the battery offers throughout its lifecycle – a very high or unlimited cycle warranty might sound attractive, but not if your battery only has 10% capacity in 5 years time. Many have already made the move from lead based batteries to li-ion batteries, as they offer a significantly better lifespan, energy efficiency and financial return, although lead based batteries can be more affordable for the short term.

The B12K electrical interfaces:

Main Power Terminals:
2 10mm studs are the main power carrying electrical interface to the load and charger / inverter. This interface is designed to supply or receive power at a maximum rate of 1C or 230A, and at a nominal voltage of 52V.

CAN Bus:

APEX offers a unique built in LCD display for anytime monitoring, and an advanced real time battery management system. The APEX B-12Kalso integrates seamlessly into your existing APEX eco-system.
In the case where more than one battery is connected in parallel, they are connected on a CAN bus for the purposes of aggregation of communication with the load / charger.

Network:
The Apex B12K can connect to a standard 100 base-T Ethernet network for remote access and monitoring using an RJ45 connector. The network requires transparent internet connectivity and a DHCP server.
