Powerware 5140 User Manual

The lead-acid batteries typically used in a
UPS are considered viable as long as they
can maintain backup times of at least half
that of new batteries. The illustration to the
right shows that batteries that are constantly
trickle charged (as are virtually all other UPS
batteries on the market today) reach the end
of their useful life in less than half the time
of batteries charged using ABM. ABM uses a
patented three-stage charging technique that
not only doubles battery service life, but
also optimizes battery recharge time and
provides up to a 60-day advanced notifi-
cation of pending end of useful battery life.
