Battery Bank Monitoring
The Brief
A utility services company faced recurring challenges with unexpected battery bank failures that left critical systems without backup power during outages. The customer needed a proactive monitoring solution to track the health and performance of their battery banks in real time, detect early signs of degradation, and take corrective action before failures occurred.
The Solution
- Integrated battery bank systems with an IoT gateway to capture voltage, current, temperature, SoC, SoH, and depth of discharge.
- Deployed cloud-connected monitoring for real-time visibility at cell and string level.
- Implemented real-time alerting for threshold breaches and fault conditions.
- Provided a cloud dashboard with historical trending, reporting, and remote diagnostics.
- Enabled predictive maintenance by correlating sensor data with battery lifecycle patterns.
Highlights
- Proactive identification of battery degradation before failure
- Improved reliability and availability of backup power systems
- Reduced unplanned downtime and operational costs
- Extended asset life through data-driven maintenance
- Rapid ROI through prevention of costly outages
