EEC’s factory trained experts will work with you to recommend the size and model of battery system that best meets your needs.  Our field technicians work in accordance with IEEE Standards 1188 and 450 for VRLA and Flooded UPS batteries, and follow all federal, state, and local regulations for handling hazardous materials.

Our UPS battery replacement and maintenance philosophy is designed around detecting and correcting potential issues before they become problems that cause system failure and cause your data center to lose power. Over 90% of UPS failure is attributed to battery error, so when inspecting UPS batteries we look for leaking cells, cracked cases, and sulphation to name a few issues. Temperature, voltage, and conductance are also measured, tracked, and analyzed.

EEC transports UPS batteries using fully qualified and trained transporters. All vehicles used to transport UPS batteries are appropriate and qualified for this purpose.  All transportation, handling, and disposal is performed in accordance with all federal, state, and local laws. EEC strictly adheres to all US Department of Transportation requirements, including labeling and shipping requirements.  All batteries are always accompanied by shipping papers that comply with the US Department of Transportation.
