The PowerAgent BMS is a remote monitoring system that alerts managers to degradations in the power-producing capacity of batteries in their inside/outside plant uninterruptible power supplies. Based on an advanced patentpending technology called “admittance” testing, the BMS employs DSP (Digital Signal Processing) and standardsbased interface protocols to facilitate seamless integration of battery monitoring into an enterprise-wide network management fabric.
Sensors: A sensor is attached to the terminal posts of each monitored battery. The sensors measure the battery’s admittance (internal resistance), voltage, and post temperature
Sensor Modules
Model Number: PBT-PA-BS1B-12-4-EQ
Measurements: String volts, battery volts, temperature, dynamic resistance/admittance
Controller Interface: 2 ea, RJ-45

A Site Controller: The site controller communicates with each of the sensors and collects the most recent measurement data. It checks each measurement against locally stored alarm thresholds and alerts the user’s monitoring software if an abnormality occurs. The site controller is fully Ethernet TCP/IPcompatible, and has a built-in web server and SNMP interface.
