At ORE Power, we've built our reputation on delivering exceptional UPS service and support since 2013. Today, we're excited to announce our partnership with PowerShield, a global leader in advanced battery monitoring and management systems. This collaboration represents a significant step forward in our mission to provide the most comprehensive UPS solutions available.

Why Battery Monitoring Matters for Your Critical Power Systems

Here's a sobering reality: battery failure is the single biggest cause of UPS system downtime. While your UPS system is designed to protect your critical infrastructure during power outages, the batteries that power these systems can fail without warning—unless you're actively monitoring them.

Traditional visual inspections and basic testing simply aren't enough. By the time visible signs of battery degradation appear, it's often too late to prevent costly downtime or emergency replacements.

Introducing PowerShield8: The Gold Standard in Battery Management

PowerShield8 is an advanced battery monitoring and management system that provides unprecedented visibility into your UPS battery health. Trusted by industry giants like Microsoft, NASA, Goldman Sachs, and IBM, PowerShield8 delivers the comprehensive data and analytics your team needs to achieve true battery management excellence.

Key Benefits of PowerShield8 Technology

1. Predict Battery Failures Before They Happen

PowerShield8 doesn't just tell you the current status of your batteries—it predicts their remaining useful life. This allows you to plan proactive replacements during scheduled maintenance windows rather than dealing with emergency failures that could compromise your uptime.

2. Comprehensive Data Collection

The system captures complete and accurate battery data including:

Individual cell voltage and temperature
Internal resistance measurements
Charge/discharge cycles
Historical performance trends
Real-time alerts for anomalies

3. IEEE/IEC Compliance Made Easy

PowerShield8 helps you meet the highest battery management standards set by IEEE and IEC, while also ensuring compliance with battery warranty requirements. Proper monitoring isn't just good practice—it's often required to maintain your manufacturer warranties.

4. Universal Compatibility

Whether you're running Eaton, APC, Vertiv, or any other UPS manufacturer, PowerShield8 works seamlessly with all systems. Monitor all your battery assets on one unified platform, regardless of battery type, UPS brand, or charging regime.

5. Support for Both Lead Acid and Lithium Batteries

As the industry evolves toward lithium-ion UPS batteries, PowerShield8 is ready. The system provides advanced monitoring for both traditional lead acid batteries and cutting-edge lithium technologies.

6. Cost Savings Through Optimization

By accurately predicting battery life and identifying weak cells early, you can:

Extend overall battery string life
Avoid premature full-string replacements
Reduce emergency service calls
Optimize your maintenance budgets
