A UPS system reporting normal operation at string level may nonetheless contain individual battery blocks operating significantly below commissioning capacity.
Battery failure accounts for approximately eighty per cent of UPS failures. Most UPS units report status at system level only, meaning a single degraded block may not be identified until it fails under load.
Battery monitoring strategy and system design, including string mapping and threshold specification. PowerShield8 installation across VRLA, VLA and lithium-ion battery strings, monitoring voltage, impedance, temperature and ripple at block level. PowerShield Assure cloud platform configuration, using outward-only data transmission with no inbound connection to client networks.
Integration with BMS and DCIM platforms via SNMP, Modbus and BACnet protocols. IEEE and IEC compliance monitoring configuration. Multi-site deployment across distributed estates.
An annual load test provides a single assessment of string performance under specific conditions on a given day. Battery degradation is a continuous and frequently uneven process.
Continuous monitoring provides an ongoing indication of battery condition, allowing replacement to be scheduled proactively rather than in response to failure..
Annual system health checks, battery condition and state-of-health reporting, end-of-life prediction, firmware management, and an optional monthly Assure review service.
