FAQs
What is the maximum current rating of the Lynx Power In?
The Lynx Power In has a maximum continuous current rating of 1000A.
What type of fuses should I use with the Lynx Power In?
The Lynx Power In does not include fuses, so you will need to use external fuses. Ensure that the fuses are appropriate for the voltage and current ratings of your circuits.
Can I connect different Lynx modules together?
Yes, Lynx modules can be interconnected. Note that M10 modules cannot be connected directly to M8 modules and vice versa.
What size cable can I use with the Lynx Power In?
The Lynx Power In can accommodate cables up to 22 mm in diameter through bottom entries and unlimited through side ports. Use appropriately sized cables for your system's current requirements.
What is the proper torque for tightening the connections?
M8 connections should be tightened to 14Nm, and M10 connections should be tightened to 33Nm (17Nm for units with a serial number before HQ2340XXXX).
Where should I make the ground connection?
The ground connection should only be one per system, and it should be made after the Lynx Smart BMS, Lynx Shunt VE.Can or battery monitor shunt.
Can I mount the Lynx modules in any orientation?
Yes, the Lynx modules can be mounted in any orientation. However, if the text on the front of the units is upside down, use the special stickers included with each Lynx module to correct the orientation.
Troubleshooting
System not powering on.
Check all cable connections for proper tightness. Verify that fuses are correctly installed and are not blown. Check the battery voltage.
Overheating of cables or connections.
Check all connections for proper torque. Ensure that the cables are sized appropriately for the current draw. Replace any damaged cables or connectors.
Inconsistent performance or voltage drops.
Check for loose connections. Inspect batteries and cabling for corrosion. Ensure that the system is properly grounded.
Fuse status LEDs not functioning.
Check the fuse itself; replace it if necessary. Ensure the module is properly connected to the rest of the system.
