How Protected are your Battery Rooms?

Hydrogen Gas Detector with Smoke Detection, Loss of Power, Temperature and Intrusion Alarms! 

Eagle Eye Power Solutions is introducing the HGD-3000 Hydrogen Gas Detector – the ultimate fixed hydrogen gas detector for any battery room. The HGD-3000 protects from hydrogen gas buildup while detecting smoke, temperature, loss of power and intrusion.

The HGD-3000 was designed for unattended battery installations or remote shelters containing gassing lead acid batteries and charging systems - most commonly found in the telecommunications and utility sectors. Other applications for hydrogen gas detection include forklift and golf cart charging areas, data centers, mission critical facilities, fire departments, and other battery charging rooms.

The HGD-3000 Has Three Main Functions: 


Hydrogen Gas Detection
Attach the HGD-3000 to the wall, ceiling, or optional junction box using the mounting holes at the top and bottom of the detector box. The HGD-3000 will turn on an exhaust fan when hydrogen gas levels reach 1% and will alarm at 2%. This alarm consists of a local 80db horn, a flashing red LED, and a dry contact switch closure for remote alarming.

Smoke Detection
The photoelectric smoke sensor detects minute combustion products from smoldering wire insulation, battery cases, and other material. When smoke is detected, a distinctive alarm is emitted from the 80db horn and a separate dry contact switch is activated. At this time, the exhaust fan is inhibited in order to deny the fire increased oxygen from outside air.

Temperature, Loss of Power, & Intrusion
During normal operation and in the absence of an alarm condition, an internal thermostat will turn on the exhaust fan at a preset temperature to reduce heat buildup in the room. Loss of power to the unit will also generate a dry contact alarm. Additionally, an optional infrared intrusion alarm will trigger a silent dry contact switch.

Lead-acid batteries on charge emit hydrogen gas after reaching the 80% recharge point. When mixed with enough air, hydrogen becomes a highly flammable gas that can ignite easily with just a spark, destroying equipment and harming personnel. The lower explosive level (LEL) for hydrogen is 4.1% by volume. The dangers of hydrogen gas explosion are eliminated by using the HGD-3000 hydrogen gas detector.

Real-Time Battery Electrolyte Level Monitoring

Non-invasive system for Flooded Batteries

Battery Monitoring System for Electrolytes
ELM-Series Monitor
Eagle Eye Power Solutions is introducing the ELM-Series Electrolyte Level Monitoring System that monitors the electrolyte level and temperature of individual flooded batteries The ELM-Series is non-invasive and is applicable to any flooded battery regardless of voltage and amp-hour. Save time and money by continuously monitoring electrolyte levels and eliminating the need for periodic testing and battery maintenance!

How does the ELM-Series Work?  

The ELM-Series Battery Electrolyte Level Monitor will work for any flooded battery system. Each model will include (1) ELM-Monitor and as many sensors required to connect to each jar / cell. (ex: A 60 Cell system will have 60 Sensors and 1 Monitor). Utilizing low-cost, easy-to-install sensors, the system will alarm on low electrolyte level or higher than normal temperature. The sensors are simply and securely attached to each individual jar.

In the condition of a low electrolyte or temperature alarm, the sensors communicate to the system monitor and the system monitor activates a changeover relay output while simultaneously activating the appropriate alarm LED lights. The LED light will indicate either 'low electrolyte level' or 'jar over-temperature'. In the event that 4 or more jars fall to an alarm level, the monitor will trigger a group alarm in addition to the single jar alarm.

Advantages of Monitoring Electrolyte Levels:

  • Continuous monitoring provides real-time battery protection - saving time & money!
  • Eliminate the need for scheduled periodic testing & maintenance 
  • Avoid user-errors and safety-risks
  • Easy-to-install, non-invasive system: No Site Surveys required! 
  • Four alarm contacts for external alarming
  • Can easily be integrated into any facilities management or alarm system
  • The ELM-Series will comply with NERC PRC-005-2 guidelines that require electrolyte level monitoring for Utilities
Eagle Eye Power Solutions offers many other real-time battery monitoring systems for DC applications including utilities, telecoms, and DC generators. UPS applications include data centers, hospitals, emergency lighting and more. Contact us today to inquire about ELM System, or request a quote

New Battery Voltage & Ground Fault Monitors

Introducing the VGM-Series!

Milwaukee, Wisconsin – (March 2015) Eagle Eye Power Solutions released a new line of battery voltage & ground fault monitors to complement their existing battery monitoring and testing solutions. The VGM-Series is Eagle Eye's newest line of continuous battery monitoring systems --- designed to monitor battery string voltage and ground faults in real-time. The VGM-Series is an inexpensive, user-friendly solution that has a simplistic design for monitoring 24V, 48V, 125V, and 250V batteries.

Why Monitor for Voltage & Ground Faults? 

VGM-Series Voltage & Battery Ground Fault Monitor
Battery voltage monitoring will provide critical battery cell protection and ensure the longevity of the battery system. Over voltage can lead to overcharging and overheating of the batteries, which can cause irreversible cell destruction. Under voltage will also cause irreversible battery damage if left uncorrected.  Battery ground faults can be difficult to locate and may create catastrophic and costly damage if they remain undetected. The entire battery system will be compromised and subject itself to overheating, thermal runaway, and reduced battery capacity.

Continuous voltage & ground fault monitoring will eliminate those risks, and allow for immediate corrective action - protecting the integrity of your battery system. 

VGM-100 Battery Voltage & Ground Fault Dual Monitor
The VGM-100 Battery Voltage & Ground Fault Monitor is an all-in-one solution for simplistic battery monitoring. The unit reads battery status, detects out-of-limit conditions and provides alarm conditions at user settings. Includes four Form C Contacts. 

GFM-100 Battery Ground Fault Monitor
The GFM-100 Battery Ground Fault Monitor is a real time solution for monitoring battery ground faults. If a ground fault is detected, a positive or negative ground fault message will appear, and the GFM-100 can activate one of four Form C contacts. 

VM-100 Battery String Voltage Monitor
The VM-100 Battery Voltage Monitor will continuously monitor battery string over voltage and under voltage conditions. If over or under voltage is detected, the voltage status will appear on the unit & the VM-100 will activate one of four Form C Contacts.  

Eagle Eye Power Solutions offers many other real-time battery monitoring systems for DC applications including utilities, telecoms, and DC generators. UPS applications include data centers, hospitals, emergency lighting and more. Learn more about Eagle Eye Power Solutions at: www.eepowersolutions.com today!
