The Lynx Distribution System

• The Lynx Distribution System is a modular busbar system that incorporates DC connections, distribution, fusing, battery monitoring, and/or Lithium battery management.
• For more information also see the DC Distribution Systems product page.

The Lynx Distribution System consists of the following parts:

• Lynx Power In – A positive and negative busbar with 4 connections for batteries or DC equipment.
• Lynx Distributor – A positive and negative busbar with 4 fused connections for batteries or DC equipment together with fuse monitoring.
• Lynx Shunt VE. Can – A positive busbar with a space for a main system fuse and a negative busbar with a shunt for battery monitoring. It has VE. Can communication for monitoring and setup with a GX device.
• Lynx Smart BMS – For use together with Victron Energy Smart Lithium batteries. It contains a positive busbar with a contactor that is driven by a battery management system (BMS) and a negative busbar with a shunt for battery monitoring. It has Bluetooth communication for monitoring and setup via the VictronConnect App and VE. Can communication for monitoring with a GX device and the VRM portal.
