The Lynx Distribution System

The Lynx Distribution System is a modular busbar system incorporating DC connections, distribution, fusing, battery monitoring, and Lithium battery management.

The Lynx Distribution System Consists of the Following Parts:

• Lynx Power In - A positive and negative busbar with 4 batteries or DC equipment connections.


• 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
