Nero S
High Voltage Battery Pack Charger / Discharger
Nero S from E-XTEQ is a ‘2 in ‘1 product that is able to Charge and Discharge the battery Pack of any Electric Vehicle. It has a MAX power/INPUT of 90-230 VAC, 50/60 Hz with a friendly-user 7” LED Color Intuitive operator interface, featuring icon based applications compatible with battery packs from all manufacturers.
The E-XTEQ NERO S solution is capable of communicating directly with the off-board battery pack for analyzing, servicing and many more purposes. Compact, transportable & especially designed for arch environments (IP53 protected), in the scenario of when a replacement for a battery pack is needed, NERO will be there to charge the brand-new battery — which normally will be low on power because of the way batteries are stored in stock. NERO contains a fully secured solution with embedded watchdogs, thresholds & parameters that allows it to also discharge the battery pack within the normalized security thresholds ensuring the most optimal conditions for transportation and storage.
NERO will perform a real capacity test, establishing the performance in terms of durability, safety, and reliability. Capacity test results may conclude that the battery is no longer suitable for automotive purposes, in which case, actions should be taken on the battery. Its second life can start as a stationary power bank in other domains such as datacenter backup service, industry, residential or commercial applications, etc.
If the battery is declared unfit for a second life use, NERO will be able to completely depower the battery pack, and be part of the recycling process of its components.
Each of the above-mentioned actions will be safely recorded in our self-developed Cloud system, which allows the monitoring of all steps along the battery’s life cycle. The loop is closed, from the beginning of its life through the servicing — until its second life or its recycling. The battery pack’s role, as an element of a circular economy, is facilitated by the E-XTEQ device, NERO.
What differentiates NERO from other competitors, is that unlike what others may offer, only one or the other functionality, charge/discharge of the battery pack, NERO can offer to you both in one product. In terms of also communicating with the pack, as many providers are limited to only CAN communications type with the pack,NERO S has Can and CAN FD communication available (WakeUp and GoToSleep sequences with the pack’s BMS). As a modern sophisticated equipment Nero S can offer a number of different modes, including Constant Current (CC) mode, Constant Power for charge and discharge , Constant Voltage (CV) mode, which competitors could lack. Workbench model to meet your specific space and power requirements. Nero S automatic operation modes include Transportation, Storage, De-powering, Capacity Test and Battery State (allowing to have a quick overview of the Battery Pact State, with the possibility to generate a report). As competitors are restricted to a limited number of languages of the unit, the most common ones such as English, Spanish and French, NERO S has a range of 27+ languages, proving that this product is very user friendly, and can be used in almost all over the world. As mentioned previously, all Nero functionalities, records, updates and results, are safely stored into our cloud based data management system, Argos together with Scan capability, available as an option, able to read and associate every operation to specific VIN, RO, battery code, etc.
