Introduction

This guide is designed to assist you with the wiring and CAN bus connection between the Wake speed WS500 Alternator Regulator and Lithionics Battery® Never Die® BMS equipped LiFeP04 battery systems. Please ensure that the WS500 regulator has the most up-to-date firmware revision and Lithionics battery profile from www.wakespeed.com/technical.html.
Never Die enabled Lithionics batteries are available with two CAN bus connection styles, depending on application. In automotive/RV applications, the Never Die equipped battery or external BMS unit is normally equipped with the Delphi Aptiv automotive-type connector. In marine applications, the battery or BMS is likely to be equipped with a 5-pin circular M12 connector. Ensure that the Wake speed wiring harness you order is equipped with the appropriate connector, based on your batteries

Required Components:

  • WS500 Alternator Regulator – Updated to the current firmware revision and configured with the Lithionics Batteries charging profile as specified for internal or external Never-DIe BMS
  • CAN augmented WS500 harness, such as the WS500/PH-CAN
  • Wake speed Deutsch to Delphi/Aptive wiring adapter, Wake speed Deutsch to 5-Pin M12 cable adapter
  • An appropriate CAN terminator, based on the wiring adapter used. See the last page of this document for a list of specific part numbers, based on installation type.

In Lithionics Battery systems, key information such as battery status, battery temperature, battery voltage and current requirements are provided by the BMS to the Wake speed regulator via the CAN bus connection, so separate battery temperature sensors and current sensing via a separate current shunt are not required.
Note that Wake speed/Lithionic systems are capable of supporting multiple battery banks and BMS units. Wake speed’s adapter for Delphi Aptiva connections can be chained to support up to three batteries or BMS units. In larger systems, a backbone can be created to support multiple regulators and up to ten batteries or BMS units.
In any CAN bus networked system, proper termination at each end of the network is required. See illustrations included in this document for examples.

IMPORTANT:
The information is provided for reference, and is intended to provide guidance required to tailor the configuration profile to your system. Please refer to the Wake speed Communications and Configuration Guide and Configuration Utility Users Guide for detailed configuration instructions.
