Monitoring & Software
NFPA 110 demands documented proof. Our Global Monitoring System automates compliance across every unit — real-time voltage, current, battery health, alarms via BACnet, Modbus, SNMP. Battery Advisor flags degradation 9 weeks before voltage shifts. Every test logged. Every audit answered.

NFPA 110 compliance on autopilot
NFPA 110 requires weekly inspections, monthly load testing, and 36 month full duration tests for Level 1 systems, all with documented records available for AHJ review. GMS automates the recording, timestamps every event, and generates audit-ready reports. Your compliance records are complete before the inspector arrives.
Impedance trending catches what voltage monitoring misses
Research demonstrates that VRLA battery impedance rises critically 9 weeks before voltage changes become detectable. A battery can show normal float voltage while having virtually zero stored energy. BAS tracks impedance trends for every cell, flags outliers against the string average, and calculates State of Health scores that predict replacement needs weeks in advance with demonstrated 98 percent accuracy in data center validation studies.
One platform for every protocol your BMS speaks
BACnet for building automation, Modbus for industrial equipment, SNMP for IT infrastructure. GMS communicates natively in all three without protocol converters, gateway boxes, or middleware. Connect once and see everything: power quality, battery health, transfer switch status, runtime remaining, and alarm history in a single dashboard.
What your spec sheet won't tell you
For every 18 degrees Fahrenheit above the 77 degree reference temperature, VRLA battery service life decreases by 50 percent. A battery room running at 95 degrees Fahrenheit is cutting your battery life in half. BAS logs cumulative temperature exposure to calculate accelerated aging, giving you actual remaining life estimates based on real conditions rather than the manufacturer's 25 degree Celsius laboratory rating. IEEE 1188 recommends replacing VRLA batteries when impedance rises 30 percent above baseline but without continuous impedance trending you will not know when that threshold is crossed. Annual ohmic testing gives you one data point per year. BAS gives you a continuous trend line. The difference between those approaches is the difference between prediction and surprise. For monitoring integration, insist on SNMP v3 rather than v1 or v2. Version 1 and version 2 transmit community strings in plaintext, creating a network vulnerability in your critical infrastructure.
