UPS Battery Systems

Needs and Product Solutions

Reducing risk of network outage

Data Centers, Manufacturing Facilities, Healthcare institutions and other mission critical operations invest in UPS battery systems to ensure absolutely reliable power. However, these UPS battery systems are dependent on batteries to store energy and batteries by their very nature can be unreliable.

Solution

Battery management programs and systems that utilize UPS battery monitoring, like Midtronics CELLGUARD Battery Monitoring System and CELLTRON Battery Analyzers increase system reliability by keeping close watch on batteries.

IMPROVED UPS BATTERY MAINTENANCE EFFICIENCY

UPS battery maintenance is key to continued reliable operation, but this maintenance is periodic, leaving risk between checks and can also be expensive.

Solution

Midtronics offers UPS battery monitors, battery analyzers, systems and programs to reduce risk and time and capital spent on maintenance.

LOWERING POWER CONSUMPTION AND REDUCING COST

Properly maintained and operating UPS and battery systems last longer and consume less energy to charge.

Solution

Midtronics CELLGUARD Battery Monitoring Systems and CELLTRON Analyzers help address inefficient battery systems through the use of UPS battery monitors and battery analyzers.
