Industrial Batteries
3 Enemies of a Battery •Cycling
• Reduces battery life by 40-50%• 5 yr battery→2-3 yr battery
•Heat• Even greater impact on life• 5 yr battery→1-2 yr battery
•Cold• Affects battery capacity • 7 day → 4 day battery
• Dynamic system controls• Environmental controls• Charge Regulation• Power conditioning & distribution• Remote monitoring & alarm • Analytics
System Controller, the Brains of the Operation:
SOLS Best Practices
Experience Required: for proper design &
installation
Industrial Batteries
Environmental Protection:
reduces O&M costs, enhances reliability
Systems Controls with Analytics
