Battery Maintenance

The operational integrity of any static UPS, CPS or DC system relies on batteries as the source of back up power in the event of a mains interruption. Failure of a single cell within any installation will compromise the integrity of the complete system, hence our maintenance regime will recommend ‘impedance’ testing be undertaken on a regular basis as a minimum requirement.

This procedure facilitates early recognition of any change to the internal electrical characteristics enabling corrective action to be undertaken either by replacing individual blocks or the complete system.

Following each visit a report is compiled which will advise on any corrective action required in order to maintain the systems integrity.  The report will also include ‘graphical’ representation on the complete battery string and provide a means of trend monitoring the batteries condition over time.

Replacement Systems

We are pleased to undertake replacement of complete battery systems including arranging for the disposal of redundant systems strictly in accordance with current legislation.
