Honeywell BPS Series Battery Safety Pressure Sensors

Honeywell BPS Series Battery Safety Pressure Sensors are automotive-grade pressure sensors that are designed to detect and report thermal runaway events in lithium-ion battery packs. These sensors combine Micro-Electromechanical System (MEMS) and Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) technologies to detect pressure changes in battery packs for electric vehicles and energy storage systems (ESS). The BPS series sensors offer high accuracy with low temperature drift. These components support an operating and storage temperature range of −40°C to +105°C, with a maximum withstand pressure of 400kPa and a supply voltage range from 6V to 18V. Typical applications include battery pack systems for electric vehicles and energy.
