UAV inspection is becoming increasingly prevalent across industries such as power utilities, oil & gas, and agriculture. To ensure efficient and reliable mission completion, a comprehensive UAV Inspection Battery System Solution covering design, selection, management, and maintenance is essential. Below is an integrated proposal.
Sample Cell Configuration
Example: 22.2V (6S) 25Ah
Cell Model: NCM 5000mAh 3.7V 18650/21700
Configuration: 6S5P (6 series, 5 parallel)
Total Energy: Approx. 555Wh
Estimated Weight: 2.5-3.0 kg (including structure & BMS)
- Overall System Architecture
