Gain visibility into your Lithium standby batteries past, present and future with PowerShield8
PowerShield8 for Lithium is our latest innovation in battery monitoring technology. Designed specifically for lithium standby batteries, this advanced system delivers valuable insight into the health, performance, and status of your critical power assets.
We’ll explore the key features of PowerShield8 for Lithium and why it's set to become an essential tool for battery asset managers who demand the highest standards of reliability and operational efficiency in their facilities.
PowerShield8 for Lithium - a comprehensive monitoring solution
PowerShield8 for Lithium is designed to augment your existing Lithium Battery Management System (BMS), providing an integrated view of all battery assets, no matter their chemistry. This advanced system connects a PowerShield8 controller to each string of Lithium battery modules through the BMS, enabling precise sampling, analysis, and storage of critical battery data.
Monitoring Lithium batteries effectively requires faster data sampling, enhanced processing power, and increased data storage compared to traditional Lead Acid or NiCad batteries. To meet these demands, PowerShield8 introduces the new LX+ Controller, capable of managing up to 12 strings of Lithium battery modules with exceptional efficiency.
The real strength of PowerShield8 lies in its advanced battery monitoring software, which offers a comprehensive suite of dashboards, reports, and analytical tools. These features give you the ability to track the status of each connected battery asset down to the individual cell level, ensuring you can quickly address any issues that might impact performance.
The system's dashboard provides an intuitive overview of all your battery assets, so you can monitor key metrics at a glance. Whether you’re overseeing a single facility or multiple locations, PowerShield8 makes sure you’re always informed about the health of your batteries.
For a broader perspective, the map screen offers a visual representation of battery assets across various locations, making it easy to identify potential issues or trends that require attention.
When it comes to analysing specific events, such as discharges, PowerShield8’s detailed event logging and analysis tools provide valuable insights, helping you understand the root causes and take corrective action.
The system’s reporting capabilities enable you to generate comprehensive reports, covering everything from battery performance trends to compliance with warranty requirements. With PowerShield8 for Lithium, you have the tools you need to manage your battery assets with confidence and precision.
Key benefits of PowerShield8 for Lithium
PowerShield8 for Lithium is designed to deliver real-time actionable insights, so you can maintain the highest standards of battery performance and reliability.
Key benefits include:
- Comprehensive battery visibility - you'll always know the health and status of your Lithium batteries, with detailed metrics down to the individual cell level. Track essential parameters like voltage, ripple current, battery temperature, and ambient temperature for optimal performance.
- Unified monitoring dashboards - monitor all your battery assets across multiple installations from a single, intuitive dashboard. This centralised view allows you to oversee the health of your entire battery fleet at a glance, simplifying management and decision-making.
- Warranty compliance - generate reports that align with battery warranty requirements, making sure your maintenance practices meet manufacturer standards and help extend the life of your assets.
- Swift problem resolution - quickly addresses alerts and alarms with real-time data, including insights into MCCB circuit breaker status. This immediate access to actionable information helps you prevent minor issues from escalating into major problems.
- In-depth trend analysis - monitor and trend key battery parameters over the lifespan of each cell, including state of health (SOH) and state of charge (SOC). This long-term analysis helps you make informed decisions about battery maintenance and replacement.
- Detailed discharge event analysis - drill down into discharge events at the cell level to understand what actions are required. This level of detail allows you to optimise battery performance and ensure the reliability of your power systems.
With PowerShield8 for Lithium, you’re equipped with the tools and insights needed to manage your Lithium battery assets with precision, so they operate at peak efficiency throughout their lifecycle.
What our customers are saying about Lithium standby batteries
PowerShield’s customers, including leading blue-chip companies with critical power facilities worldwide, demand the highest uptime and stringent battery management standards. Many of these organisations have relied on PowerShield8 for years to provide visibility and control over their VRLA, VLA, and NiCad batteries. However, when it comes to Lithium batteries, they often feel left in the dark, unable to see their batteries in sufficient detail.
Customers accustomed to the comprehensive monitoring and detailed insights provided by PowerShield8 for other battery chemistries have found that the visibility with Lithium batteries doesn’t quite measure up. For managers charged with ensuing the longevity and reliable performance of Lithium standby batteries this lack of transparency has left them uneasy, especially when trying to meet the demanding requirements for battery warranty claims, where detailed reporting is essential.
Not only that, but large enterprises are often wary of becoming too dependent on a single UPS company or battery OEM, especially in a competitive and rapidly changing industry. They need solutions that offer flexibility and independence from any one technology or supplier.
PowerShield8 for Lithium directly addresses these concerns, delivering the same level of visibility, control, and ease of reporting that our customers have come to expect — regardless of the battery chemistry or manufacturer. With PowerShield8, they regain the confidence and control they need to maintain the highest standards in battery management for their critical power facilities.
PowerShield8 for Lithium - the future of advanced battery management
PowerShield8 for Lithium provides battery management teams with the comprehensive visibility and control they need to confidently manage their Lithium standby batteries. By filling the gaps, PowerShield8 ensures that every aspect of your lithium battery’s health is monitored and analysed, providing actionable insights that drive better performance, reliability, and compliance. Whether you’re managing a single facility or multiple sites globally, PowerShield8 for Lithium stands as the ultimate solution for maintaining the highest battery management standards in today’s highly dynamic, critical power environments.
