UPS Battery Service to Keep Your Business Running, No Matter What
At FGC, we offer a wide variety of UPS battery service and replacement options for all Uninterruptable Power Systems to keep your business running, no matter what.
Our experts understand the importance of proper UPS battery maintenance and replacement, not to mention the technical requirements needed to install and recycle any string of batteries.
As the “heart” of any UPS system, batteries are the source of emergency power in the event of a power loss. During a utility power failure, the UPS batteries must support the connected load to prevent catastrophic outcomes, from data loss and business disruption to injuries.
Proactive maintenance and replacement of UPS batteries is crucial to keeping your business running no matter what. We recommend replacement every 3-5 years of all UPS batteries - your UPS may have more than one!
Our Account Managers will work directly with your site contact to ensure the batteries are shipped, received, rigged, and installed into your UPS. We're familiar with open rack systems as well as battery cabinets, wet cells, and lithium ion systems. Any old batteries will be recycled and we'll provide a certificate of proof of responsible recycling.
UPS Battery Service
Our technicians are battery experts with decades of experience. Every individual jar is factory tested before installation and all hardware is torqued to manufacture specifications. Do you have individual battery monitoring? No problem! We work with all systems, ensuring monitoring is back online once the battery installation is complete. Once the installation is complete, our Field Engineer will conduct a preventative maintenance visit to ensure the system is running smoothly.
