Request InfoBVM 48: Monitor up to 24 battery cells with this dedicated platform
Effective, easy-to-install, light-capacity voltage monitoring
- Monitor 24 individual battery cell voltages, so you can see developing problems before they impact the entire battery string
- Report alarms via industry-standard SNMP (v1 or v2c) to your SNMP manager, or the T/Mon alarm management platform.
- Use the built-in web browser to easily monitor batteries from any PC on the network
- Get very accurate readings (even over a small voltage range)
- Track both instantaneous readings and historical trending with the analog logging feature
- Alternate configuration: Integrate the BVM with a NetGuardian RTU to report battery voltages, system alarms, and environmental levels from a single IP address
- RoHS 5 approved, for overseas clients requiring RoHS compliant units
- E-mail and text message (via email) notifications
- Free lifetime firmware upgrades
This small RTU was designed to do one thing: Monitor your battery cell voltages for ultimate visibility over your power supplies. The BVM 48 monitors up to 24 cells and reports threshold alarms via SNMP.
In addition to these threshold alarms, the BVM also sends notifications should a battery cell fall out of its normal (average) range by more than a desired percentage. Your SNMP manager issues periodic GET requests against specific cells, and offers both instant readings and analog logging to track battery voltages over time. The BVM is ideal for sites that have large battery strings.
The BVM 48 can report alarms to any SNMP manager and/or to the DPS Telecom T/Mon NOC Remote Alarm Monitoring System.
The integrated web interface, modeled after the overhauled web interface for the NetGuardian 216 G3, boasts several time-saving new tools. Menus load very quickly, and the alarm status updates automatically without requiring a page refresh.
In an alternate configuration with a NetGuardian 832A or 864A, the BVM's threshold alarms are passed through as local NetGuardian analogs. This config gives you the advantage of reporting alarms from the same IP address as the NetGuardian. The BVM 48 also makes a great standalone, battery-monitoring solution.
