Batscan
W&D Group has a collaboration with the best battery monitoring system: Batscan. Batscan is the leading battery monitoring system in Sweden. It’s a Swedish invention and has been developed for 30 years. We analyzes the data from UPS batteries and detect if a battery is bad or critical before a power outage. W&D Group focuses on digitality, flexibility and is always available to provide data analysis on Batscan´s customers batteries.
Batscan has a solid list of customers, including:
Facebook – Data centres in Europe
Equinix in Sweden
Telia
Nasdaq Nordic (OMXS)
Swedavia Airports – Göteborg-Landvetter Airport, Malmö-Sturup Airport and Stockholm-Arlanda Airport.
Do you know that a small power outage can cause a big problem?
When there is a power failure, the backup power with the UPS batteries switches on. This concerns both big companies and data centres as well as air ports and hospitals. New UPS-batteries are expected to work up to 15 years, a few of them will deteriorate after a few years whereas others might be faulty from the start.
If the UPS batteries are not working correctly, companies will experience great losses. For data centres it might be the loss of money, for example the stock market or banks, whereas hospitals might lose lives, all due to that the backup power won’t switch on as it should.
Batscan continuously monitors each block or cell in the batteries. If a measured value differs from normal an alarm will be triggered and actions to correct the problem can be taken immediately. This way the battery can always be kept in optimal condition and well prepared for a power outage.
5 advantages with our service and Batscan battery monitoring system:
10 times faster
– Batscan is 10 times faster than any other battery monitoring system.
A battery monitoring system must be fast in order to be able to measure all block voltages during a power outage that may only last for 12 seconds. It is only when the battery is charged that you can see if there is something wrong with any block.
With Batscan (the communication speed is 115200bps), it is certain that we have managed to get at least one measured value from all blocks during an interruption that lasts for 12 seconds. With a slower system, it is certain that you will not get it and then you can not diagnose the battery.
Better measurement
– Batscan measures more accurately than any other battery monitoring system.
Batscan is an advanced battery monitoring system that is designed to provide real-time monitoring and analysis of battery health and performance. It is a comprehensive system that uses advanced algorithms to measure and analyze battery parameters such as voltage, current, temperature, and state of charge.
Batscan continuously monitors each block or cell in the batteries. If a measured value differs from normal an alarm will be triggered and actions to correct the problem can be taken immediately. This way the battery can always be kept in optimal condition and well prepared for a power outage.
No risk of hazards
– Batscan battery monitoring system do not cause any hazards, neither short circuit nor discharge.
Safety above all, Batscan is not connected directly to the batteries and does not control the battery, the charger or the load. This is not a limitation, it is an essential requirement for a true monitoring system, that by definition it should be allowed to observe only, without any means of influencing the result. Any technical system can fail, and most do – sooner or later. When this happens with a device that controls the battery, an independent monitoring system will prove its value.
More sustainable
– you only replace the bad battery and keep the good ones for many more years.
With W&D Group’s analysis you will be able to detect the faulty batteries rather than being forced to replace batteries when it is not necessary. This will ensure safety for you and the backup power supply as well as it will lead to economic and environmental benefits.
Save money
– you will halven your cost for UPS-batteries.
With W&D Group’s service agreement, you do not need to call a technician or an engineer to perform manual battery tests. We measure the batteries digitally, online or offline. We analyze the data from UPS batteries and are able to detect that some are bad or critical before a power failure. This means you can replace only that battery that’s no good and keep the rest for many more years. You will save money for not doing manual battery discharge tests and not buying new UPS batteries as you would have, without W&D Groups data analysis.
With W&D Groups service agreement and a battery monitoring system for your back-up power supply you will halve your cost for the UPS-batteries and you will:
-
be more sustainable
-
be more efficient
-
save money
W&D Group analyzes the data from UPS batteries for backup power to detect a bad or critical condition in the batteries to prevent possible consequences during a power failure.
We will give you reports four times a year. We will also do a check-up to see if the batteries are OK, once a week as well. We show the results as a comprehensive but easy to understand summary with graphs and accurate data analysis. This will be uploaded to a personal website for your data.
What benefits will this get you? With W&D Group’s analysis you will be able to detect the faulty batteries rather than being forced to replace batteries when it is not necessary. This will ensure safety for you and the backup power supply as well as it will lead to economic and environmental benefits.
We work with specialists who have many years of professional experience. Therefore, we can ensure that your assignment receives the best competence in its field.
