Float Current Monitoring – an industry first

The La Marche Battery Float Current Monitor (FCM) is a battery monitoring device that measures a Battery’s Float Current Charging/Discharging Currents & Battery Voltage.  Float Current is how much the battery draws from a charger when it is fully charged, simply to maintain a full state of charge.  The Float Current level is a good indicator of the battery’s condition.

La Marche battery float current monitor

FCM assists in compliance with NERC PRC-005-6 and TPL-001-5 as it helps in determining the state of health (SOH) of the battery & state of charge (SOC) and in detecting the first signs of battery aging or thermal runaways.
High Resolution Battery Current Sensing

  • Float Current (with an accuracy in the single digit milli-Amp range)
  • Battery Charging & Discharging Current

Battery Voltage Sensing

  • Reports to the A77 Battery Charger via

Isolated CAN Bus Interface

  • Real-Time Data on LCD
  • Real-Time Data over SCADA Communications
  • Data Logging on Micro SD

Omicron test equipment & measuring instrumentsCircuit Breaker Analyzer

OMICRON’s CIBANO 500 is a 3-in-1 test system for medium- and high-voltage circuit breakers.  It combines a digital micro-ohmmeter, timing analyzer, and a coil and motor power supply.
The CIBANO 500 allows asset managers to efficiently perform all the important circuit breaker measurements, such as timing, static and dynamic contact resistance, travel, coil current, or motor current – on breakers of all voltage levels. Its extensive capabilities and efficient test methods for testing high voltage breakers are widely known.

Omicron CIBANO 500 circuit breaker analyzer

What is more, with its internal voltage/current power supply it can also verify breaker performance during special conditions, such as overvoltage, undervoltage or low DC supply.
Its globally unique connection technology reduces the wiring effort and time required up to 50%. In addition, OMICRON’s Primary Test Manager™ (PTM) Software and the included circuit breaker testing library (CBTL) ensure convenient operation and deliver one clear, combined report for all the tests performed.
Key Features

  • 3-in-1 system: digital micro-ohmmeter, timing analyzer, and AC/DC power supply
  • One system for medium-voltage or high-voltage circuit breakers with live-tank, dead-tank or GIS-design
  • Low wiring connection effort
  • One clear report for all tests
  • Circuit Breaker Testing Library (CBTL)
  • Lightweight test system (20 kg / 44.1 lbs)
