Businesses that rely on technology for their day-to-day operations cannot afford to risk even a split second of downtime. Despite advances in UPS technology, one truth remains the same: when the power fails, the UPS needs to draw its power from banks of lead acid batteries to feed the critical load until it is able to switch to standby generators.
It is well understood that batteries are the most vulnerable part of any UPS and that battery failure is a leading cause of power-related downtime. The more customers know about their batteries, and the more detailed and current that information is, the better their chances of heading off disaster. EatonT Cellwatch is an automated battery monitoring system for large-scale installations where power and system availability are critical to successful business operations. Cellwatch is a powerful tool in mitigating and preventing costly downtime due to unexpected battery failure.
