Standby Battery Maintenance

Facilities like data centres, hospitals, airports, utilities, oil and gas facilities, and railways can't operate without 100% back-up power reliability. 

Even standard commercial and manufacturing facilities have back-up power systems for their emergency systems, alarms and controls, emergency lighting, steam and fire control systems.

Most back-up power systems use an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) and a string of batteries. The UPS backs up the digital control system (DCS) to keep control of plant operations until systems can be safely shut down or until the auxiliary generator kicks on.

Although most batteries used in modern-day UPS systems are "maintenance-free," they are still susceptible to deterioration from corrosion, internal shorts, sulphation, dry-out, and seal failure. 

By having an annual maintenance conducted on your batteries CAD can trend monitor your battery systems and advise of early failures and allow for budgeting for replacement. With a “whole life” battery maintenance plan you can keep charge of your battery system.
