Why Battery Monitoring?
Depending on battery type and application, Lead Acid batteries have a design life that can range from 5 to 20 years. That design life estimation is based on the battery being maintained in accordance with recommended practices, operating under ideal conditions and ensuring that any individual failing units are replaced before they impact the other units in the string.
However, in most installations, those conditions are seldom met, and the actual life of a battery may be closer to half of the published design life. This potential for failure has been confirmed in a number of studies over the years. In fact, in one Ponemon study into Data Center failures, the UPS Battery was responsible for over 50% of the reported outages. This data, and the uncertainty of most operating environments, confirms why battery monitoring is an essential part of maintaining today’s systems.
