Battery Monitoring Systems for Petrochemical
Applications
BTECH's Battery Monitoring and Validation Systems
are found in many applications in the Petrochemical industry.
1) Ensure Your Process Control Systems - Chances
are your process control systems rely on a typical UPS with a VRLA
battery cabinet - meaning your systems are at risk of battery
failure.
2) Protect Your Switchgear - Standard applications
are 120 or 240V systems with backup batteries ranging from 10 or
20 12V VRLA (monoblock style) to 60 or 120 2V flooded (wet) cell
or large VRLA on racks. All types benefit from battery monitoring!
3) Remotely Monitor Offshore Platforms - Your
offshore platforms have multiple battery systems, each critical
- since maintaining those batteries is so costly off shore, wouldn't
it be better to find battery problems in advance with the safety
of time to plan?
4) Your Corporate Data Center - Make sure your
mission critical data center stays up in during the next outage.

"BTECH is on the job 365 days a year"
Multnomah County is geographically the smallest in Oregon but contains
approximately 20% of the states population. The Multnomah County
Government serves the needs of approximately 700,000 people in an
area that covers 465 square miles.
My department is responsible for ensuring the continuing operation
of several vital county facilities including a facility where life
safety is a prime factor. To avoid the risk of surprise blackouts
due to problems with the power grid or weather related causes we
have employed the use of Uninterruptible Power Supply systems.
Uninterruptible Power Supply systems completely depend on simple
and unpredictable backup batteries to work. Given the mission critical
nature of the applications we support, we investigated battery-monitoring
systems to virtually eliminate our risks of a complete and catastrophic
power outage due to unforeseen backup battery failure.
We looked at several models and found only BTECHs patented technology
could warn us of developing battery problems without the use of
stressful battery load testing. This is a significant advantage
because load testing actually reduces the life of the backup batteries.
BTECH not only reduces our backup battery failure risk, but saves
the county money by eliminating the need to blindly change out all
600 backup batteries on a strictly calendar basis.
With BTECH on the job 365 days a year, we can identify and change
only the deteriorating batteries which saves us time, money and
makes us much more secure. I couldn't explain to the people
of Multnomah County how to insure our continued operation during
the next power failure until we found BTECH. Now I have an answer.
