Changing your smoke detector’s 9 volt battery during Daylight Savings Time is as much a habit as brushing your teeth after a sugary snack. Why not also take the opportunity to evaluate your power systems VLRA or flooded batteries; they are just as important to the reliability of your system as your 9 volt is to your smoke detector. When you think Daylight Savings think batteries. A weak battery can endanger the integrity of your system and subject your operation to the possibility of downtime, lost information, and possibly your job.
The average life span for a VLRA battery is 5-10 years and 20 years for a flooded battery. How old are your system’s batteries? Don’t wait to find out about a problem at the last critical moment. The cost to replace an old battery is pennies compared to the cost associated with downtime.
EEC will provide you with the technical information and data necessary for your management to review and approve all battery replacement projects.
