General
This sensor hub is used to connect two current sensors in parallel. The current from both sensors will be summed and passed to the FC. The voltage measurement of the LiPo packs will be collected from both sensors and passed through the hub to the FC.
The main purpose of this hub is to replace existing protection circuits (such as an ideal diode) and to monitor that both parallel LiPos supply the same current to the system.
Since we monitor the current of both batteries, we will detect early when a LiPo starts to fail… before it is too late.
If the difference in current is greater than +/- 10%, the hub will issue a warning to the pilot via a Power LED and/or buzzer (fast flashing) connected to the Alarm I/O.
If the difference in current is larger than +/- 20%, the Alarm output will be continuously ON to indicate the fault… the pilot should immediately land and check the batteries.
Additionally, there is a reserve relay contact (alarm) for the user to implement any desired function. The I2C bus is for future Integration.
To set up a complete system, you will need:
- 1x Sensor Hub X2
- 2x Current sensor boards:
- HS-050-LV or HV = 2x50A = 0-100A total
- HS-100-LV or HV = 2x100A = 0-200A total
- HS-200-LV or HV = 2x200A = 0-400A total
- 1x 2-6S BEC or 4-16S HYB-BEC
Dimensions: 39mm x 31mm x 6mm / 7g without cables.
The board comes with a 10 cm connection cable (DF-13-6p <-> DF-13-6p) to the FC and 2x 10 cm connection cables (DF-13-6p <-> DF-13-4p) to the sensor boards. If you need customized cables in different lengths, please order them separately.
