I have several APC Symmetra PX UPS racks (40kW each in N+1 configuration) that I am experimenting with using LiFePO4 battery systems instead of the SLA batteries these usually come with. I have been using one with A Pylontech PowerCube M1 with success, but now I'm starting to play around with building various surplus battery packs to accomplish the same thing. Basically the APC expects a center tapped +192V | 0V | -192V battery, mainly to minimize potential to ground and it seems pretty good at discharging the battery halves fairly symmetrically.
I could build the BMS system out of a number of 15s or 20s BMSes, but I'm not seeing a lot of units that have isolated RS485 or CAN interfaces such that I can safely have them on a single comms bus while wired in series. Are there any BMS products out there people would recommend to either work with a 60s battery or are designed to be used in series with communications for higher-voltage systems?
