LEM offers advanced battery monitoring components
LEM
Sentinel III components
LEM has introduced the Sentinel III advanced set of components for a battery monitoring solution.
It addresses the needs of the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) and battery providers, as well as value-added resellers (VARs) and systems integrators.
Sentinel III components are used to create a solution for continuous battery monitoring within mission-critical installations such as hospitals, airports and data centres.
The Sentinel solution comprises transducers, data loggers and software components to create a comprehensive yet simple and cost-effective standby battery monitoring (SBM) solution.
In order to extend the functionality of the existing Sentinel, LEM has developed the S-Box: an advanced data logger featuring an embedded web server, which enables administrators to monitor installations remotely.
The measurement and data logging features of the S-Box include Bloc, String and Battery Voltage measurement, Bloc temperature and impedance measurement, discharge performance and discharge/charge current.
The S-Box also measures ambient temperature - a key factor affecting battery life.
The new Sentinel transducer is designed to reduce installation time, offering DIN-rail mounting and an external temperature patch.
Users can set up an alarm for each of the parameters measured by the transducers connected to the S-Box.
As well as instant alarms, the S-Box can also provide a weekly report to the administrator, containing all daily measurements and critical system information.
The S-Box is DIN-rail mounted to facilitate installation and includes software for configuration and remote monitoring.
