I'm making good progress in the design and assembly of the network cabinet. The two boost converters are being connected to the fuse block, I mounted a 120mm fan inside the cabinet and installed an air filter at the front of the cabinet.
It is almost time for a first test... if there wouldn't be a samll issue with the round connectors.
Boost converters 12V to 24/36/48V and up to 20A:

​​​​​​​​@@OffGridGarageAustralia I have BraiinsOS running on the miners. This OS raises the efficency and can be set to a dedicated powerconsumption. Theres a HA Integration for BraiinsOS. HA runs my miners between 1/2 and 3/4 of maximum power, or switches them off, depending on battery SOC, solar power and sunforecast. On 1/2 power the fans run near idle and on 3/4 just slightly faster on an acceptable noise level. The heat warms my cellar ceiling, witch is made of hollow blocks. This acts as a kind of floorheating for our apartment. Second stage it is sucked by a heatpump to heat up the warm water., or at least just blown out to the atmosphere.

My question being will this bms work well for this application? I plan on only running about 5000watts from the 96ah pack for audio but I wanted a big enough bms to avoid it shutting down the cell.

Just a quick observation. Having the 48v devices and 12 v devices, in close proximity, and using the same co axial power plugs for both - imagine you have had a session of calibrating too many spats........ if you accidentally supply 12v to the 48v device - no big deal but......... pumping 48v into one of your 12 volt devices is going to hurt! - Would you not do better placint the 12v devices further away from the converters and extend the 12v cable? that way no accidents can happen?

Actually... I don't think there is anything in that cabinet that even needs an outside fan in the first place. The boost converters don't due to the way they are mounted. The POE+ switch certainly doesn't (POE+ switches don't have any power regulators in them beyond powering the ethernet chipset). The little mini-computer has its own fan. Convection would be just fine if you unplug the holes. If you really want the fan, just run it slowly and leave it going 24x7. Easiest solution. The options are: (1) Get a fan "slow down" cable, or (2) DIY a fan "slow-down" cable... all they do is put a 100ohm 1/2W or 1W resistor inline with the power to the fan, or (3) Use a 24VDC fan but power it with 12VDC, it will run a lot slower and be completely silent. Don't bother with a PWM, that's complete overkill. And best to use low-power-spec'd fans in the first place (0.2A at rated voltage or lower) since the box doesn't really need much or any airflow anyway. You can make the fan run 24x7 and be completely silent. -Matt
@OffGridGarageAustralia
@OffGridGarageAustralia 27 дней назад
Exactly! The PWM controller I mentioned will spin the fan on 20% all the time, I believe. And in summer time it may drive it faster if necessary. I tried with a 60Ohm, 5W resistor in series with the fan, but that seemed too wasteful.
@junkerzn7312

@@OffGridGarageAustralia The PWM controllers won't be much better and can actually cause fan startup problems (they are not typically "smart" PWM fan controllers for the most part) (see note 1). You won't save much, if any, power. The main thing is to purchase fans with the following qualities: * Large (e.g. 140mm x 140mm or larger) * Low amperage specification, e.g. 0.2A or lower

I've had the same thing happen with 2A non-name Chinese fuses. I've also seen fuse-holders melt just from the heat of the fuse (not the type of "disconnect" I was looking for!). But I also have gotten kits that where the fuses work quite well. So these days I always test a few from the kit to make sure they actually work before trusting the kit. And for anything serious I use 10x38 ceramic fuses and DIN rail mounted fuse holders
@OffGridGarageAustralia
@OffGridGarageAustralia 27 дней назад
What fuses are you talking about? From the fuse box? What is the fuse for, you must ask!? The fuse will protect the cables of your circuit. The power supply for this whole fuse box is coming from the battery shelf and a Victron Orion 48V/12V, 20A DC-DC isolated buck converter. So, worst case here is, none of the fuses work and we have a short circuit of 20A, right?
@junkerzn7312

@@OffGridGarageAustralia I have the most trouble with generic (i.e. random amazon-purchased) auto blade fuses not working as advertised. Meaning, you take a 2A fuse, put 10A into it... and it doesn't blow. For example. Glass fuses tend to be a whole lot more reliable, but fuse holders for glass fuses often aren't.... they're often made of low-temperature plastic instead of high-temperature plastic and the housing of the fuse-holder winds up melting with anything near the rated current going through the fuse (i.e. fuse isn't supposed to blow, but the problem then becomes the fuse holder and not the fuse). I've had glass fuse holders melt on me multiple times. This didn't used to be the case, but these days even well-known brands seem to be messing up in their race to the bottom. Finding reliable low-amperage fuses has gotten difficult. The best bet seems to be 10x38mm ceramic "solar" fuses such as the type you often find in combiner boxes. There are more options for fuse holders for 10x38's. The Baomain DIN-rail mounted fuse holders seem to be decently reliable, I've tested those with continuous amperages up to their ratings without anything melting on me. 10x38mm ceramic fuses are the only low-amperage fuses I trust these days. -Matt

Same with the battery shelf. So many people were concerned and had issues with it. Until it was done and working. Then, everyone was impressed. Maybe different here with such a cabinet as this is not something many people would need.

Threes are more important. They provide you with oxygen. You could all ways put your solar panels in stilts as a temporary condition.

Yes, this is now a procedure in winter to setup these additional panels at the fence. We will build more permanent solar though...

I do believe you are making it way too complicated by (only) using the side-panels, but it is a choice. If you left all the holes open, you would not need a ventilator for cooling IMHO. By properly placing (granted, horizontally) the components in the "correct" order, hottest on top shelf, cooler ones on the lower/bottom, natural convection could be sufficient. I know from personal experiences as I build all my kit both for work and home in such boxes. Using environmental monitors (suggestion for a future project for you perhaps?) I measure, on average 24.3 degrees Centigrade. Yes, with network-switches, Access Point and sometimes a NAS, micro-computers and occasional NUCs. Granted, in the winter I do not need heating in the room, it is quite comfortable....

BTW, those connectors are often called barrel-connectors and indeed come in almost countless shapes and sizes. As for your AP, next to mounting it on top of your network cabinet, you could opt for: - getting the proper antenne-connectors (MCX?) and piece of coax, plus a chassis-connector for the antennes themselves, mount only the antennas to the outside of the cabinet. (you could also opt for complete kits that come with the whole cable, chassis-mount and antennes that sometimes give a bit more dBi's, thus some extra range. - mount the access point on one of the side-panels (back-plane) in such a way that you drill only holes to stick the antennes thru those holes to the outside. (if you are concerned about dust, you can use grommets. Yes, if you leave the antennes inside the network cabinet, there will be faraday effects (read: reduced range) but also affects due to the antennes being too close to the other equipment that radiate some radio frequencies themselves as they are switching, that can influence the quality of your wifi signal. Remember, wifi is only mW of signal, it does not take much to block or distort the signals.

I cut down a tree that was blocking our morning sun, because electricity is more important than a plant.

The best solar optimizers are made by Stihl, Husqvarna etc. 😉

@stevenfrazier8939 28 дней назад
I don't need solar optimizers. all of my bi-facial panels are in the sun with no shading. and they routinely out perform the 405 watt rating, even in the winter.

Why do you keep calling the Boost Converters "Buck Converters"? There is quite a difference.

Your website has SMlight SLZB-06(M) which says made in the Ukraine, which is not correct its just Ukraine no "the" in it unlike the United Kingdom a collection of kingdoms or states - we dont say the Australia or the Indonesia; though its easy to fall into "the Ukraine" trap so understandable! Otherwise thanks about wavelink spent a lot of time fussing about what sort of AP for out on the property. Interesting price difference between Amazon and Aliexpress (i guess its delivery time and support on returns as to the larger margin on the amazon one).

Andy, like i see very often, the direction of airflow in your cabinet is wrong - no offense, 90% of the so called professionals do it wrong as well... If you want to keep dust out, it doesn't help to close all the gaps. You have to create an overpreasure by blowing into to cabinet through a filter.
