Electric kart “FeLis” with LiFeYPO4 batteries

This paper deals with the construction of the electric kart with LiFeYPO
₄
. Electric kart is designed to replace conventional engine karts which are commonly used in karts rent business. It includes also descriptions of chosen parts like LiFeYPO
₄
batteries, MOSFET converter, sensors and electronics control system. The topology of electrical equipment is based on a CAN bus and allows further expansions by students projects. Today they, modern LiFeYPO
₄
are used as a power source of electric kart. This batteries allows rapid recuperation of the kinetic energy.
