Functions Of Battery Monitoring System

  • Make informed decisions using accurate information that is automatically captured and consistently reported.
  • Reduce maintenance and replacement costs by monitoring and performing preventative maintenance.
  • Save time by having remote access to battery data and pinpointing faults to specific individual batteries.
  • Maintain security and overall systems integrity by limiting access to sensitive areas for external service providers.

Key Benefits of Battery Monitoring System

  • Avoid costly downtime and protect your business from losses.
  • Optimize battery life by replacing batteries at the correct time.
  • Improve safety by reducing the need for physical contact with the battery bank.
  • 24/7 alarm notifications allow you or your service team to respond quickly to potential battery issues.

System Components

Battery Module

Battery Module

Each VRLa, VLA, or Ni-Dc battery is measurable and communicated with the Modbus Protocol, with its internal resistance and temperature values.

String Module

String Module

The string current, ambient temperature, and humidity values are measured separately by using them for each string, and the communication with Modbus protocol is given.

Control Module

Control Module

As the system’s main component, the system gathers and interprets data from battery and string modules. The device records processed data.

Alpais Software

Battery Monitoring software

All batteries can be monitored and controlled via a single interface using advanced software regardless of position and distance.
