How to implement battery monitoring in a deployable product?

Nov , 27 2021

Standalone ohmic battery monitoring systems designed for data center application are not suited for a genset environment. Although ohmic monitors work, they are expensive (estimated at $2,000 for a 24-volt system), time-consuming to install, and require trained personnel to interpret their data output. To achieve widespread adoption in the genset market any battery monitoring technology will need ...

NiCd versus Lead Acid Starter Batteries for Generator Systems

Dec , 10 2021

Apart from a few special applications that use mechanical cranking, such as spring starters, the greatest percentage of generator set systems utilize 12-volt or 24-volt starter motors. For prime power and standby applications, the two most commonly used battery types are lead acid or nickel cadmium (NiCd). This article discusses the differences between NiCd and Lead Acid starter batteries for gene...

Battery charging tutorial-Part 1

Apr , 18 2022

Current battery charging technology relies on microprocessors (computer chips) to recharge; using 3 stages (or 2 or 4 stages) regulated charging. These are the "smart chargers", and quality units generally are not found in discount stores. The three stages or steps in lead/acid battery charging are bulk, absorption, and float. Qualification or equalization is sometimes considered another stage. A ...

DC-DC Converters-A suitable alternative to battery chargers

May , 09 2022

What if you had all the power you wanted or needed at 125 Vdc, but your site manager suddenly handed you a requirement for 24 Vdc to run some communication gear? You might tell him to buy a 24 V battery and a 24 V battery charger. But, these elements come with costs: initial, maintenance, and probable future battery replacement. There is another way: for approximately the same cost as the battery ...

Efficiency of DC power system

Jun , 27 2022

In this article we will explain the efficiency of DC systems and progress to AC systems on the next article. In very basic terms, efficiency is the measure of how much power is not being wasted by a system. More waste is less efficient. In electrical systems, we measure the power entering a system in watts; the unit of measure for work performed. Efficiency is the ratio of (Power-In) -vs. - (Power...

What are the soft costs of datacenter?

Jul , 22 2022

Data centers can’t afford to go dark. That’s why reliable critical power systems arecentral to their operation. Selecting and maintaining these systems comes at a price, but astronger understanding of “hard” and “soft” costs -- and what can be done to mitigate thelatter -- can protect the bottom line. Hard and soft costs vary from one operation to the next. In general, hard costs refer to the expe...
