FPT Industrial, alongside its brand Potenza Technology, is reaffirming its strong commitment to technological innovation as a means of continuously improving the products it offers to customers. This relentless effort has resulted in another important milestone for the company: the eBM 5 Battery Management System for high voltage batteries, designed entirely in-house, has achieved ISO 26262 ASIL C certification as a stand-alone system from T\u00dcV S\u00dcD.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This result highlights the qualities of the fifth-generation battery management system, designed and developed entirely in-house by the integrated FPT Industrial and Potenza Technology team, from the circuitry right through to the software base and application layers. This state-of- the-art system is defined by flexibility and scalability. With a highly modular design at its core, it is compatible with 400 or 800 volt battery systems, which can be configured at an application level to optimize vehicle efficiency and performance. This enables OEMs to maximize the system\u2019s effectiveness for each use case, right across the mobility spectrum \u2013 from commercial vehicles through to hypercars \u2013 including multi-pack management (which is not in scope of the certification) without an additional controller. The eBM 5 is currently in volume production for the IVECO eDaily MY24, as well as for numerous other customers.<\/p>\n

Pierpaolo Biffali, Vice President Product Engineering at FPT Industrial, commented: \u201cThis is an important step forwards in consolidating our electrification roadmap to accelerate decarbonization of the commercial vehicles segment. Each technological innovation we make always translates into tangible value for our customers, and the eBM 5 represents a solid way to ensure the efficient and safe operation of their battery electric vehicles.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

Neeta Khare, Battery and Fuel Cell Director at FPT Industrial, commented: \u201cThroughout the development phase, the team was driven by the principle of making our product robust, reliable, and safe. As a result, we implemented significant improvements across various areas, including processes, testing infrastructure, design documentation, and traceability from requirements to testing. This enhanced approach has led to the T\u00dcV S\u00dcD ASIL C certification and has also further strengthened our confidence in the reliability and safety of our BMS product.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Richard Devenport, General Manager & Head of Battery Development at Potenza Technology, an FPT Industrial Brand, stated: \u201cThis is a true achievement that has been years in the making. The goal was always to produce an OEM standard Battery Management System suitable for a wide range of vehicles. While other BMS suppliers often use the \u2018self-certification\u2019 process, where their work products are reviewed within their own company to confirm compliance to the standard, we aimed to have ours assessed by an external body, to guarantee a level of quality and completeness that few others can boast. We backed up that claim by going the extra mile to obtain certification from T\u00dcV S\u00dcD, one of the world\u2019s leading experts on functional safety and a founding participant in the establishment of the ISO 26262 standard.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
ISO 26262 is an international standard for functional safety in the automotive industry, applied to electrical and electronic systems that consist of hardware and software components in vehicles. This standard defines the requirements for both the safety-relevant functions of the system and the development process, ensuring that an adequate level of safety is maintained throughout the vehicle lifecycle. The standard is based on ASIL (Automotive Safety Integrity Level), a risk classification system that analyzes potential hazards by considering the severity, frequency, and controllability of the vehicle\u2019s operational scenarios.<\/p>\n
