Batteries, given their chemical nature, are prone to wear, corrosion, leakage and outright failure due to events like short circuits, Power failure/fluctuations and lightning strikes. Given their propensity to fail and to have decreased performance over time, it is important to be able to identify, monitor and control their performance. UPS management and monitoring can be done with environmental monitoring device like sensorProbe which has advanced features like TCP/IP based remote monitoring, abnormal status notification via TCP/IP based email messaging or SMS and SNMP support and also UPS temperature, voltage monitoring through intelligent sensors.
