Anton Bauer announces “three-level” protection for its batteries aimed at cinema and broadcast

Battery systems for film and broadcast productions Anton Bauer (To be seen) include a standard three-level protection, defined as a mix of advanced software diagnostics and engineering built into each product.

This “three-level” protection system for batteries and chargers Anton/Bauer seeks to offer a comprehensive protection against potential risks, from built-in overcharging and overheating protections to robust short circuit protection. In this way, we seek to give peace of mind to filmmakers and broadcasters, while they focus on bringing their creative visions to life.

He first level is based on a intelligent monitoring supported by the software by Anton Bauer, a solution that continuously monitors cell voltage, current, temperature and pack voltage. This advanced monitoring ensures that the battery is performing optimally during charging, discharging, or in standby mode. He second level, “quick response", is composed of a hardware based sampling from Anton/Bauer, which provides an extra layer of protection to quickly respond to unexpected surges that cannot be detected by software. This layer allows you to deal with dynamic filming conditions such as action sequences or live events.

Finally, the third level, “protección definitiva”, se refiere a la integración en las baterías de “circuitos adicionales y redundantes”, los cuales se emplean cuando fallan las dos medidas de seguridad anteriores: al abrir permanentemente un fusible en la placa de circuito impreso, la batería se protege a sí misma de posibles daños, “garantizando que su seguridad nunca se vea comprometida”.

Por otro lado, en el plano de los cargadores de Anton/Bauer, los tres niveles de seguridad son el aislamiento múltiple, dado que las fuentes de alimentación se separan de los circuitos de carga; las communications, dado que son capaces de “dialogar” con la batería para determinar la corriente y el voltaje deseados, y la controlled acceleration, as a gradual ramp-up approach is used, carefully monitoring the battery response at each step. For example, if a battery Dionic XT90 Requires 16.1V @ 4A charging, the charger gradually increases parameters while constantly evaluating battery health and temperature.
