What is a Battery Monitor?

A Battery Monitor is a product that tracks, analyses, and reports on the condition of each individual battery in a system. A BTECH Battery Monitor also utilises a patented impedance trending technology to predict and identify an individual or group of batteries that will fail. This information enables customers to avoid unplanned downtime and emergency service visits.

Caution, various battery monitor technologies are utilised by competitors. Basically these technologies broadly identify a battery problem once it has reached failure status. A rough equivalency would be to purchase a family vehicle without a gas gauge but with an out-of-gas alert. Such a system would serve no purpose since you know when the tank runs out of gas because the engine stops.

A BTECH Battery Monitor is recommended for all battery backup systems that are protecting critical data systems, networks, or applications. Based on industry studies between 3-5% of new backup system batteries fail at random in their first year of operation. A BTECH Battery Monitor eliminates this risk of battery failure.
