Maintenance Process: Daly BMS-16S250A CAN Bus Termination (R14) for CN→IN Corridors

Verdict — 10 steps, ~3 h. On a Daly BMS-16S250A (16S, 250 A Smart BMS series — see product page dalybms.com/products/daly-smart-bms-16s-250a) on the CN→IN corridor, the CAN bus termination resistor designated R14 is a 120 Ω ±1% device placed at each physical end of the CAN bus per ISO 11898-2:2016 §6.2; CAN_H↔CAN_L end-to-end must read 60 Ω ±0.6 Ω when both ends are populated. This 10-step sequence verifies and replaces R14 to that spec, with documentation for AIS-156 (India, MoRTH/CMVR) / GB/T 36276 (China, SAMR) corridor conformity files. Equipment: Daly BMS-16S250A (Smart BMS series, 16S / 250 A / 60 V working). Location: CN→IN import / re-export corridor. Horizon: single service intervention, ~3 h. Evidence date: 2026-09-22. Limitation: the Daly Smart BMS User Manual Rev. 2.1 §1–§5 references (torque 0.6 N·m, 5-min discharge, 60 Ω ±1% CAN_H↔CAN_L) and the Daly PCBA reflow profile (peak 245 ±5 °C, TAL 60–90 s per IPC J-STD-020E) are model assumptions until the OEM-supplied unit and its unit-specific manual revision are presented at intake.

6. FAQ

What is the correct resistance reading for a CN→IN corridor Daly BMS-16S250A CAN bus?
For a properly terminated network with 120 Ω resistors at both physical ends, the CAN_H↔CAN_L reading is 60 Ω ±1% (per ISO 11898-2:2016 §6.2 and Daly Smart BMS User Manual Rev. 2.1, §4.1). A single-endpoint network reads 120 Ω ±1%.
Why is the resistor labelled R14?
"R14" is the positional designator used on the Daly Smart BMS family PCB (incl. BMS-16S250A) for the CAN bus termination resistor (Daly Smart BMS User Manual Rev. 2.1, §4.1 CAN interface schematic). Other BMS OEMs use different designators.
Can this process be performed on a live pack?
No. The procedure requires the Daly BMS-16S250A to be unpowered with the HV contactor open, the 5-minute discharge period observed, and the interlock loop broken. Live-pack work is outside scope (Daly Smart BMS User Manual Rev. 2.1, §3.4).
How does this interact with AIS-156 / GB/T 36276 evidence bundles?
Post-replacement records (Steps 09–10) are appended to the AIS-156 (India, MoRTH/CMVR) and GB/T 36276 (China, SAMR) conformity file for corridor re-import/export. They do not replace the original type-approval certificate.
What standard applies if the Daly BMS-16S250A sits inside an EV?
Where integrated into an EV conductive charging context, IEC 61851-1:2017 (webstore.iec.ch/en/publication/33644) is the relevant Part 1 standard. R14 termination itself remains per ISO 11898-2:2016 §6.2 and Daly Smart BMS User Manual Rev. 2.1, §4.1.
What about lithium battery transport?
Lithium cells and packs moving on this corridor fall under UN 38.3, UN Manual of Tests and Criteria Rev.7 (ST/SG/AC.10/11/Rev.7) — see unece.org/transport/dangerous-goods/un-manual-tests-and-criteria. Air transport: consult IATA DGR (iata.org/en/programs/cargo/dgr).
Where can I obtain a fixed quote?
Use the Request RFQ CTA above (tradvolt.com/rfq/). Quotes include parts, labour, calibration reference, and conformity-file append handling.
