1. To act as a 'fuel gauge' for battery banks to ensure there is sufficient capacity to operate systems for the designated time in the event of a power failure.
   
   
2. To identify faults and weaknesses in the battery bank early so preventative
   maintenance can be undertaken.
   
   
3. To identify when the battery bank is reaching the end of life so that battery
   replacement can be undertaken in a safe and orderly manner.
   

Battery monitoring can deliver real benefits to any organisation that needs reliable backup power systems.
