Main Features
- Digital Wavelet Technology. Precise IR (Internal Resistance/Conductance) online measurement is performed on each battery, user selectable internal resistance or conductance data display
- Over Voltage Protection. Designed with over voltage input for each sampling channel
- High Resolution. 16 bit high resolution provides for clear and precise data acquisition
- Solid State Scanning. (rather than mechanical relay) provides the highest reliability for industrial applications
- Noise Immunity. Provides for accurate measurement on high ripple ups systems
- Modbus/RTU Communication. Provides high reliability and ease of integration
- Compact Design. Permits convenient installation on top, or inside of the battery cabinet
- Access Data/Alarm from Anywhere. Firewall friendly Battery Analyzer software, plug and play, easy to manage large number of sites from anywhere via internet. Alarming through email, SMS and SNMP trap
- HMI Panel. The plug and play touch panel (optional) allows the technician to configure and calibrate without the need of a PC
- Supports Site/Building Management Systems. The system fully supports 3rd party network battery management systems with SNMP, Modbus TCP and hyperlink to real-time data.
