WONDOM 3S 18650 Lithium Battery Balance and Protection Extension Board User Manual

1. ആമുഖം

The WONDOM AA-JA11113 is a sophisticated battery balance and protection board specifically designed for three 18650 Lithium batteries connected in series (3S configuration). This board provides comprehensive protection and balancing features, enhancing the reliability and safety of your battery pack, particularly for portable audio systems and similar applications requiring a stable rechargeable power supply. When fully charged, the board delivers a 12.6V output voltage.

Key safety features include overcharge, over-discharge, discharge overcurrent, short circuit, charge overcurrent, and over-temperature protections. The integrated protection circuit continuously monitors the voltage and current of each individual cell. Additionally, the board incorporates an external bleeding function for cell-capacity balance, preventing imbalances between cells over time.

പ്രധാന കുറിപ്പ്: This battery board does NOT include a charging circuit. To recharge the 18650 batteries, you must use a compatible charging solution, such as a WONDOM JAB1 or JAB2 board, which are equipped with MPPT charging circuits.

• ബാറ്ററി തരം: This board is designed specifically for 18650 Lithium batteries. Do not use it with other battery types (e.g., NiMH, NiCd, LiFePO4) as this can be dangerous.
• സീരീസ് കണക്ഷൻ: The board is for 3S (three cells in series) configurations only. Do not attempt to use it with a different number of cells.
• ചാർജിംഗ്: Remember, this board does not include a charging circuit. Use a dedicated Lithium battery charger or a compatible WONDOM JAB1/JAB2 board for charging. Never attempt to charge batteries directly through this protection board without an appropriate charging circuit.
• പരിസ്ഥിതി വ്യവസ്ഥകൾ: Operate and store the board within the specified temperature ranges to ensure optimal performance and safety.
• പ്രൊഫഷണൽ ഇൻസ്റ്റാളേഷൻ: If you are unsure about any aspect of installation or wiring, seek assistance from a qualified professional.

5. സജ്ജീകരണവും ഇൻസ്റ്റാളേഷനും

Careful installation is crucial for the proper functioning and safety of the battery protection board. Follow these steps:

5.1 ഘടകം തിരിച്ചറിയൽ

5.2 ബാറ്ററി ചേർക്കൽ

1. Ensure you are using three identical 18650 Lithium batteries.
2. Carefully insert each 18650 battery into the battery holder, paying close attention to the polarity markings (+ and -) on the holder (refer to Figure 2). Incorrect insertion can damage the batteries and the board.

5.3 വയറിംഗ് കണക്ഷനുകൾ

The board features various connection points. The primary battery connections are labeled VBAT+ and VBAT-. The included PH-4pos cable is used for charge/discharge connections.

• ബാറ്ററി പാക്ക് കണക്ഷൻ: Connect the positive terminal of your 3S 18650 battery pack to the VBAT+ terminal on the board and the negative terminal to the VBAT- terminal.
• ഔട്ട്പുട്ട് കണക്ഷൻ: The output for your application (e.g., portable speaker) should be connected to the appropriate terminals, typically through the PH-4pos cable, which handles both charging input and discharging output. Consult the specific wiring diagram for your application or the JAB1/JAB2 board if used for charging.
• Balance Connections: The board automatically manages cell balancing through its internal circuitry and external bleeding function. Ensure all battery cells are properly connected in series within the holder for the balancing feature to work effectively.

ഗുരുതരമായ മുന്നറിയിപ്പ്: Always double-check all connections for correct polarity and secure fit before applying power. Refer to Figure 1 for visual guidance on board layout and connection points. The text on the board itself states: "Please check the positive and negative polarity of the battery before installation."

6. ഓപ്പറേഷൻ

Once properly installed and connected, the WONDOM AA-JA11113 board operates automatically to protect and balance your 3S 18650 battery pack.

• പവർ ഔട്ട്പുട്ട്: The board provides a stable 12.6V output when the batteries are fully charged, suitable for powering compatible devices.
• പരിരക്ഷണ പ്രവർത്തനങ്ങൾ: The board continuously monitors the battery pack for various conditions:
  • If any cell's voltage exceeds the overcharge detection voltage (4.235V), charging will be interrupted.
  • If any cell's voltage drops below the overdischarge detection voltage (2.8V), discharging will be interrupted to prevent damage.
  • In case of excessive discharge current, short circuit, or over-temperature, the board will cut off power to protect the batteries and connected devices.
• സെൽ ബാലൻസിങ്: The integrated balancing function works to equalize the voltage across all three cells, extending the overall lifespan and performance of the battery pack. Balancing typically occurs when cells reach a certain voltagഇ (ഉദാ, 4.18V).

6.1 ബാറ്ററി പായ്ക്ക് ചാർജ് ചെയ്യുന്നു

As noted, this board does not handle charging. To charge the 18650 batteries, connect your external charging solution (e.g., WONDOM JAB1/JAB2) to the designated charge input terminals, typically via the PH-4pos cable. Ensure the charging voltage and current are appropriate for 3S Lithium batteries.

9. പ്രശ്‌നപരിഹാരം

If you encounter issues with your WONDOM AA-JA11113 board, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• ഔട്ട്പുട്ട് പവർ ഇല്ല:
  • Check battery polarity: Ensure all 18650 cells are inserted with correct polarity.
  • Verify battery charge: The batteries might be fully discharged, triggering over-discharge protection. Attempt to charge the pack using a compatible charger (e.g., JAB1/JAB2).
  • Inspect connections: Ensure all VBAT+ and VBAT- connections, as well as output connections, are secure and correctly wired.
  • Check for short circuit: A short circuit in the output or connected device will trigger protection. Disconnect the load and re-test.
  • Over-temperature: If the board is excessively hot, it might have triggered over-temperature protection. Allow it to cool down.
• Charging Issues (when using external charger):
  • Ensure the external charger is compatible with 3S Lithium batteries and is functioning correctly.
  • Verify the charging cable (PH-4pos) is correctly connected to both the board and the charger.
  • Check for overcharge protection: If batteries are already near full, the board's overcharge protection might prevent further charging.
• Unbalanced Cell Voltages:
  • The board has an automatic balancing function. Allow sufficient time for balancing to occur, especially after initial setup or deep discharge.
  • Ensure all battery cells are healthy and of similar capacity. Severely mismatched or damaged cells may not balance effectively.

If the problem persists after these steps, contact WONDOM customer support or your retailer for further assistance.
