BATTERY CARE : MAINTAINING YOUR UPS

Batteries are a key element of UPS systems. Their efficiency and availability are important for preventing load downtime, but at the same time batteries are the most vulnerable and failure-prone component of such systems.

Therefore, continuous battery monitoring , preventative maintenance and periodic battery replacement are essential to guarantee continuity of operations and long live battery.

Main factors reducing battery lifecycle:
• High temperatures
• Frequent number of cycles
• Discharge too deep
• Recharging with high voltage
• Lack of regular maintenance
