Lynx Distributor
The Lynx Distributor contains a positive and a negative busbar. The positive busbar has four fuse protected connections with fuse monitoring. The negative busbar has four connections and a ground connection. It is part of the Lynx Distribution system.
The Lynx Distributor has a power LED and four fuse status indication LEDs.
If connected to a Lynx Smart BMS, up to 4 Lynx Distributors can send fuse status information to the Lynx Smart BMS. This feature is not available when connected to a Lynx Shunt VE.Can. If the Lynx Distributor is connected to a Lynx Smart BMS it can be monitored and setup with the VictronConnect App.
The Lynx Distributor is designed to hold MEGA fuses. These need to be purchased separately.
The Lynx Distributor is part of the Lynx Distribution System, a modular busbar system that incorporates DC connections, distribution, fusing, battery monitoring and/or Lithium battery management.
The Lynx Distribution System consist 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.
The Lynx Distributor is rated for a nominal current of 1000A, for 12, 24 or 48 System voltages.
To give an idea of how much power the Lynx modules are rated at different voltages, see below table. The power rating will give you an indication how big the connected inverter/charger system can be. Keep in mind that if inverters or inverter/chargers are used, both the AC and DC system will be powered from the batteries. Also be aware that a Lynx Smart BMS or a Lynx Ion (now discontinued) can have a lower current rating. Power rating Lynx modules
