If your business depends on a UPS system to protect power to any critical applications, then you may want to think about remotely monitoring what can be the least reliable component of a UPS - your UPS batteries.
Around 70% of UPS power failures are due to undetected faulty batteries. Batteries are an important part of your UPS setup therefore regular testing and maintenance is essential to keep a long life cycle of your batteries.
Specialist Power offer a UPS battery monitoring service to ensure your battery system is under constant review. This acts as an early warning system to any potential battery failure to individual blocks or whole strings.
Here are some of the key features of our battery monitoring services but read on for full details on how we can help.
We cover more details about our battery monitoring service below. We explain the importance of regular testing and monitoring and what the implications are with battery faults.
But if you would rather speak to one of our experts, give us a call or send us an email to discuss your UPS battery monitoring requirements.
We know how integral batteries are to any UPS system. That's why we offer around the clock 24/7 battery monitoring solutions to support your business and make sure there are no hidden problems with your battery system.
Unfortunately, batteries can fail at any time in their lifecycle and can fail quickly with little or no warning. Regular maintenance and impedance / conductance testing are important and will provide you with an extensive health check over time. This will allow you to predict when batteries will need to be replaced.
However, when failures happen quickly and go undetected, this can then result in a complete battery replacement which can be costly.
For example, an air conditioning failure in the plant room could result in a sudden increase in room temperature which could be detrimental to your UPS batteries. With 24/7 battery monitoring we will alert you to these changes and immediate action can be taken to address the issue.
Our qualified engineers can, as part of our service and maintenance packages, perform routine onsite battery inspections. However, our battery monitoring will remotely monitor all UPS batteries continuously, making sure all faults are immediately reported back to you.
Our battery monitoring services will remotely perform what our engineers carry out on a site visit but 24/7 every day of the year. We will provide you with a dashboard so you can analyse the data and make educated decisions based on battery health and trends over time.
You will have remote access to your UPS systems and can track and log the voltage levels of each single battery cell, providing a good assessment of the overall health of the battery string.
We monitor several elements of your UPS batteries including:
Monitoring the above will help you better understand how they are working over-time and most importantly alert you if you have any issues.
As we mentioned earlier, the life expectancy of UPS batteries can be affected by many things such as:
Knowing when a single cell is affected by any of the above is critical for any backup power system.
A single bad cell can have a huge effect on an entire string of batteries, if you don't catch it early. Any failing batteries can have a significant knock on effect to the rest of the battery string. Your UPS will be compromised if your batteries aren't working properly, leaving you susceptible to mains deviations and power interruptions.

No matter the size or configuration of your battery setup, our team of trained battery engineers can replace any UPS batteries with minimum disruption to your business. We will even take your old ones away and dispose of them.
Impedance & Conductance testing are non-intrusive ways of preventing battery failure by identifying early signs of weakness or general deterioration in individual cells. Regular testing is crucial to forecast when batteries will need replacing.
Our team of fully trained inhouse engineers will take care of all your UPS and generator installation requirements. From the initial design right the way through to final electrical testing and commissioning.
Specialist Power Systems are fully authorised to dispose and recycle your old UPS batteries in accordance with Environment Agency regulations. Providing you with a hazardous waste disposal certificate on completion.
A site survey is vital to get the correct UPS or Generator setup. We will send our qualified experts to your premises and carry out a free site survey where we assess your requirements and provide the right power protection solution.
To reduce risks with your backup solution, our load bank testing service simulates maximum load conditions. We test the UPS, generator, and the entire electrical supply infrastructure to ensure your system is fully functional to protect your business when needed.
Our team of engineers can reposition any UPS or Generator and relocate to a different room or move to a new site entirely with minimal disruption to any critical loads. Including the hire of specialist crane and lifting services.
When something unexpected goes wrong, leaving your business exposed to mains disturbances and power outages, it is vitally important to get your UPS back up and running in the fastest possible time. Specialist Power can help with our onsite emergency repair services.
AC & DC capacitors have a finite lifespan and require periodic replacement. (Most manufacturers typically recommending replacement every 5 to 8 years). Specialist Power Systems offer a comprehensive replacement service on all manufacturers and brands of UPS systems.
