4.1 Overview

The eBIMS can be deployed inside an outdoor cabinet or indoor equipment room. An equipment

room can be a data center power battery room or a site equipment room.

l Deployment inside an outdoor cabinet

– eBats eMeter and eBox are installed inside the outdoor cabinet. The eBats are connected

to batteries and eMeter should be connected to the terminal of battery string, the eBox

is installed inside the cabinet using hook-and-loop fasteners. One eBox is installed for

each cabinet.

l Deployment inside a data center power battery room

– eBats eMeter and eBox are installed inside the indoor equipment room. The eBats are

connected to batteries and eMeter should be connected to the terminal of battery string,

multiple eBoxes are installed on a wall using screws. One eBox manages 250 wireless

module or sensors.

l Deployment inside a site equipment room

– eBats eMeter and eBox are installed inside the indoor equipment room. The eBats are

connected to batteries and eMeter should be connected to the terminal of battery string,

the eBox is installed on a wall using screws. One eBox manages 250 wireless module

or sensors.

NOTE

Currently, eMeter only can be used for battery sting with rated 48V voltage.

4.2 Application Scenarios

This section briefly describes the scenarios requiring the eBIMS and typical eBIMS deployment

scenarios.

Scenarios Requiring the eBIMS

Typical scenarios:

1. Outdoor sites encounter network problems because battery aging due to overcharge/

overdischarge/undercharge/underdischarge deteriorates backup time. In this case,

maintenance costs are increased because multiple site visits are required to confirm the

battery location and quantity, check battery performance, and determine whether to replace

batteries.

2. Routine testing and inspection of batteries inside equipment rooms require much human

power. Moreover, one-by-one battery check cannot accurately determine the battery status,

causing much waste.

Deployment Inside an Outdoor Cabinet

The eBats and eBox are deployed in an outdoor cabinet. They communicate with each other

wirelessly. The eBox transmits collected battery data to the server. Users log in to the server to

perform real-time monitoring and operations. This solution achieves real-time monitoring and
