UPS Battery Maintenance

Of course, the battery of the UPS may also fail. You need to carry out UPS Battery Maintenance reasonably to make it last longer, be safer and more reliable, and provide the best backup support for your equipment.Because the UPS battery is expensive, need to preventive maintenance the UPS battery even more to extend the life.

UPS Battery Service and Maintenace Environment

1. The VRLA Battery needs to be stored in an environment of 25°C. Too high and too low temperature will reduce the battery life.

2. Dry storage environment to avoid the chemical reaction of the battery shell due to moisture or other corrosive substances in the UPS, which will reduce the service life of the battery. If possible, your UPS battery can use ABS shell material battery.

3. The UPS battery itself also needs to be cleaned regularly and kept clean.

Life Expectancy

The Life Expectancy service life of the battery is actually different from the actual service life. Generally speaking, the service life will be reduced due to external factors.

You can check the cycle of the battery by connecting the battery cycle detection device. Generally, the battery will indicate the number of cycles of the battery. Replace the batteries before designing the service life of the float and the number of cycles.

Holding Voltage

1. Prevent over discharge. Over-discharging your battery may prevent your battery from being recharged. How to prevent over-discharging? According to the discharge detection, an alarm will be issued when the discharge reaches a certain value, and then the technician will close it.

2. Overcharging. Excessive charging may cause the positive and negative electrodes inside the battery to fall off or the active substances adsorbed on the surface to fall off, which will lead to a decrease in the capacity of the battery and a shortened service life.

3. Avoid long-term float voltage, do not discharge operation. It may cause the internal resistance of the UPS battery to increase.

UPS Battery Regular Maintenance

Based on the above analysis, the following points can be summarized, so that TCS can provide you with better services:

1. Check whether the battery is leaking.

2. Observe whether there is acid mist around the battery.

3. Clean the dust and debris on the surface of the battery case.

4. Check whether the battery connection is loose and clean and free of contamination.

5. Observe the overall condition of the battery and whether it is deformed.

6. Check whether the temperature around the battery is stored at 25°C.

7. Check the discharge of the battery.
