The ELM-Series is a reliable electrolyte level and temperature
monitoring system designed for flooded batteries. Utilizing
low cost, easy to install sensors, the system will alarm on low
electrolyte level or higher than normal temperature. In the
condition of an alarm, the sensors communicate to the system
monitor and dry contact alarm(s) activate while simultaneously
activating the appropriate alarm LED lights. In the event that
four or more cells trigger an alarm state, the monitor will
trigger a group alarm in addition to the single alarm. The alarm
contacts may be linked in to any facilities management or alarm
system for remote monitoring.
Cost-Saving Benefits The ELM allows for significant savings in maintenance costs
for battery sites by reducing the man-power needed to inspect
battery electrolyte levels. Per NERC Standard PRC-005-6, no
periodic on-site inspection of cell electrolyte level is required
when remote electrolyte level monitoring with alarming is
utilized.
