CellWatch

The reliability of a battery based power supply can only be guaranteed if every battery in it is able to perform at an optimal level 100% of the time! The CellWatch battery monitor utilizes DCM modules (Data Collection Module), that are capable of taking precise measurements of each battery’s internal resistance, temperature, and voltage. The DCM modules are connected on a Fiber Optic network which provides noise isolation and reduces the potential for operators to be exposed to high DC voltage. By utilizing a modular design, the CellWatch system can easily be expanded at a reduced cost. The CellWatch system also has the ability to monitor the batteries on facilities generator sets. Applications: • UPS batteries • Generator • Switch Gear / Station Batteries • DC Power Plants The IBMu provides the centralized management that can provide an interfaces to the building management systems and network systems. It provides the user with access to all system values and events. The CellWatch design has an optional feature that monitors for thermal runaway in the battery system. The system provides a warning period to allow site personnel to correct the problem without endangering the critical load. Once a battery string is in a high thermal alarm ,the system can open the DC disconnect for the battery string to isolate the string. Let PSS provide a CellWatch battery monitor for your facilities battery plant. Request a quote today.
