Battery systems
Batteries systems are a crucial part of any UPS configuration, along with a well-designed installation. Together, these will help prevent any form of weakness in your power protection system and will result in less business downtime.
Vital Power can advise on all aspects of battery system design for your business, taking into consideration site specifics such as load, autonomy, space restrictions, and environment.
Although most UPS systems can automatically test their batteries, regular maintenance should also be undertaken to ensure the integrity of the installation.
Vital Powers standard suggestions would include the following services:
- Battery cell voltage
- Battery string voltage
- Battery float voltage
- Visual inspection of terminals and connections for corrosion
- Visual inspection of block casing for evidence of external structure failure
- Ambient room temperature
- General installation condition
Impedance Testing
We know that full battery replacements can be very costly, which is why UPS impedance testing is a cost-effective way to determine whether you can undertake a cheaper approach. At Vital Power we will provide a reliable, low-cost solution to check the status of your batteries before proposing any costly decisions to replace all batteries are made.
Quite often, only a small percentage of batteries will be deemed faulty, and these can be replaced easily by our engineers without any downtime or risk to your critical load. Battery impedance testing can also give an accurate prediction as to when the battery is at end of life, so that a proactive approach can be taken for your budgets and to make sure your UPS system is ready to go.
