Permanent monitoring solution designed for stand
Complete package including hardware & software Designed to allow IEEE/IEC best practice Fast, accurate, safe & smart Visibility of your battery assets Be in control of your batteries.
Modular layout for safety, efficiency, scalability
Up to 1280 blocks / 16 strings per hardware system Stand-alone system operation with on-board memory Can operate without PC or external comms UL, CUL, CE, C-Tick, FCC, KCC certified Fast & tidy installation Battery & UPS brand neutral Maintain manufacturer flexibility & capability for future expansion
All parameters sampled continuously & automatically Rapid identification of catastrophic failures Automatic data logging Allows historic & predictive trending over battery lifetime Automatic data logging of battery discharge Live assessment of performance Capacity analysis UPS self-test & intermittent charging compatibility Make best use of UPS functionality All events and alarms time & date stamped
Individual block voltage, sampled simultaneously every 4 seconds True real-time visibility Individual block impedance, sampled daily Sampled only in Float for best comparison & life trending Internal high precision reference for self-calibration Individual block temperature option Measured at negative terminal as per IEEE recommendations Accurate & block specific thermal runaway detection
750VDC optical isolation at battery Increased safety of personnel & facility Install flexibility & efficiency – consolidate different block & string voltages [UPS, 48V, genset, emergency lighting] Factory terminated cable sets with no fusing required Intelligence at the battery Ripple & noise rejection Self-protection Bi-colour LED for fast identification No more manual battery testing.
Alarms for block voltage, impedance & temperature [thermal runaway]; string voltage & current; ambient temperature All alarm settings user-editable, but with initial defaults offered Self-learnt automatic baseline for impedance All alarm settings are battery & application specific Detailed, specific alarm information – to individual block level System intelligence applies appropriate limit set for battery state – Float/Charge/Discharge/Idle Notification of change of string state Alarms for internal system diagnostics
Alarm & data options for data center integration: Ethernet to PowerShield Link software Allows review at all levels – control room, facility managers, service providers, equipment suppliers. Both life trend and discharge event data presented Battery data stays under your control & ownership ModbusRTU/TCP or SNMP to local building management system Integrate with existing facility systems Allows implementation of multiple alarm sets Dry contacts for additional alarm outputs or actions Dedicated serial port for local service & diagnostics High visibility & ownership of your battery assets.
New Dashboard screen for Link – see all the batteries in your facility at a single screen. Fast overview Onscreen alarm pop-ups Single click for site report Simple colour coded buttons Drill down to battery specific detail & alarms Multi-seat, multi-user
Permanent connection to multiple sites – unlimited total number of batteries Real time battery status, including discharge Remote access via LAN Alarm & activity log Email alarm alerts Battery database for life trending Graphing & analysis tools Automated data management Battery management is more than just waiting for alarms
Comprehensive user report set Preformatted PDF or Raw CSV data Facility summary Discharge – individual events in detail, activity summary Trending – Impedance change, end-of-life, charge voltage, temperature Alarm history, fault tracking, service log Warranty claim support documentation Reports suitable for management & service teams Independent remote Reporting Service available

Individual block voltage – ensure correct charge and performance under load Individual block impedance – impedance change gives a solid life trend and end of life assessment. Ambient temperature at the cabinet/rack – high temperatures kill
String current – allows detection of unbalanced strings, and provides rapid understanding of battery activity String voltage – confirmation of UPS operation & compliance with battery specification Individual block temperature [optional] – better knowledge of temperature gradients in cabinets; pre-empt thermal runaway
A 10°C increase gives a 50% decrease in life expectancy
Incorrect float voltage significantly affects life expectancy
