When new battery systems are commissioned, or when it’s time to schedule a load test of your existing system, you can benefit significantly from Data Power Monitoring’s Load Testing service.
Standard load testing does indeed answer an important question – Does the battery system as a whole hold a discharge to overall specification? This test is a good start in determining if the string as a whole performs to specification. However, it’s expensive, puts your operation at risk during the test, and the individual battery cells and jars end up one more discharge/recharge cycle closer to their end of life. Shouldn’t you get as much information as possible when these tests are run on some of the most critical components of your mission critical power backup system?
With battery monitors installed, voltage and current measurements taken during load testing can offer a whole new dimension of information on the health of the cells, jars and string as a whole.
Data Power Monitoring’s Load Testing service offers the following benefits:
- Planning services and preparation of battery monitors, environmental set up to optimize and ensure quality of the measured data
- Optional on–site participation including consultation on load testing methods and procedure to ensure the testing method and procedure complies with IEEE standards
- Ensure proper data measurement and capture by the battery monitors
- Detailed analysis of measured data
- Complete reporting package documenting the load test, along with thorough analysis of cells/jars individual performance using IEEE standards
