Lithium ion cover

[ferbo]

Hello,

We have a lithium ion pack with its own BMS made for us and we want to make the insulating and protective box for it.

I found the films such as kapton polymide films that conduct the heat but not electricity to wrap around the pack. and we can 3d print a box for it. But I don't know if this will be enough for keeping it cool, fireproof and protected from vibrations.

I don't have any experience in manufacturing battery packs so I would appreciate any advice on any material to use around the pack.

Thank you

If the enclosure is of translucent material, then you can mount led's just inside, as visual indicators of charge/discharge status, voltage, etc.

Thank you Brad but the visual indication is not important for us since we communicate with BMS through CAN bus and take the information elsewhere.
