Product catalog summary
EquaLink Battery Management System Overview
EquaLink is an Ethernet-based battery management system designed to monitor and manage the voltage, internal resistance, and temperature of each battery in a stationary system. It employs a patented voltage balancing process to ensure optimal charging, thereby increasing battery reliability and lifespan.

Key Features
  • Patented voltage balancing process
  • Identification of poorly performing cells
  • Regulation of charging to prevent overcharging and undercharging
  • Advanced warning system with remote login capabilities
  • Email and SMS alerts
  • Downloadable battery history
  • SNMP and Modbus communication compatibility
  • Thermal runaway prevention
  • Compliance with UL 60950 standards

Benefits
  • Prevents unexpected battery failure
  • Increases battery capacity and extends battery life
  • Easy access to battery data via web browser
  • Automated data collection for NERC requirements

Balancing Process
EquaLink monitors individual battery voltages and adjusts the float current to maintain optimal voltage levels. This process ensures the availability of the battery system by keeping voltages within 0.001 volts of the system's average float charging voltage.

Environmental Monitoring
  • Temperature
  • Humidity
  • Electrolyte level
  • Hydrogen gas detection

Supported Battery Types
  • Flooded/Wet Lead Acid
  • VRLA (Valve Regulated Flooded Lead Acid)
  • Nickel Cadmium

Order Code Structure
The order code for EquaLink systems includes specifications for nominal DC system voltage, number of batteries, battery voltage, and input power.

Maintenance and Cost Savings
EquaLink reduces maintenance costs by minimizing the need for travel to remote locations, decreasing report preparation time, and reducing manual monitoring through custom alarm parameters.

Data Collection and Alarms
EquaLink continuously collects data and provides warnings and alarms. Detailed reports can be accessed through a secure browser connection.

NERC PRC-005 Battery Maintenance Requirements
EquaLink assists in NERC and FERC reporting by verifying and recording relevant information. It meets the minimum requirements of NERC PRC-005 and IEEE recommendations for battery maintenance.

Battery Management System-1

EquaLink Battery Management & Monitoring System Active Battery Management System with Voltage Balancing EquaLink is an Ethernet-based battery management system that monitors the voltage, internal resistance and temperature of each battery in a stationary battery system. Through a patented balancing process, EquaLink actively regulates the float charging current of each battery, ensuring all batteries charge at the optimal voltage. EquaLink Battery Management System actively manages batteries to increase reliability and extend life, whereas other battery monitoring systems simply monitor batteries while they deteriorate. EquaLink can monitor current, ambient/room temperature, humidity, hydrogen gas and electrolyte levels. Through available Form C contacts/relays, EquaLink can also monitor electrical equipment such as UPSs, inverters, transfer switches, generators and air conditioning systems. Benefits • Prevents unexpected battery failure • Increased battery capacity • Extends battery life • Easy access to battery data via web browser • Automate data collection for NERC requirements EQUALINK BATTERY MANAGEMENT Status log of individual battery data Features • Patented voltage balancing process • Pinpoints poorly performing cells • Regulates charging (prevents overcharging and undercharging) • Advanced warning system • Remote log in • Email and SMS text alerts • Downloadable battery history • SNMP and Modbus communication • Compatible with batteries 2V to 16V • Thermal runaway prevention • Listed to UL 60950 standards
