DESCRIPTION:

The Franklin Grid CG-ELS-HUB-84-CA is a CELLGUARD™ ELS+ hub controller designed for centralized electrolyte level monitoring of vented lead-acid (VLA) stationary battery systems operating within utility substations, telecommunications infrastructure, UPS systems, data centres, rail systems, renewable energy installations, and industrial DC backup power environments. The hub forms the core communications and management platform for CELLGUARD™ ELS+ electrolyte level monitoring deployments.

The CG-ELS-HUB-84-CA continuously supervises electrolyte level status information from connected ELS+ sensors and provides centralized alarm management, visual status indication, and remote monitoring integration for predictive battery maintenance applications. The platform is specifically designed to support compliance-focused maintenance workflows and assist utilities with NERC PRC-005 electrolyte inspection requirements by automating electrolyte supervision across large stationary battery installations.

The ELS+ architecture supports scalable deployment capability with monitoring support for up to 600 electrolyte level sensors per hub using modular quick-connect sensor infrastructure. The hub controller communicates with distributed electrolyte level sensors to identify low electrolyte conditions, maintenance requirements, and developing battery health issues before critical battery failures occur.

The CG-ELS-HUB-84-CA integrates within broader Franklin Grid battery asset management environments and supports centralized monitoring visibility, alarm notification workflows, maintenance planning, and remote battery infrastructure supervision. The monitoring platform is suitable for utility battery plants, telecom backup power systems, industrial DC systems, and mission-critical standby power infrastructures requiring continuous 24/7 electrolyte monitoring capability.

Designed for long-term operational deployment within electrically noisy industrial environments, the hub controller supports structured battery maintenance programs, predictive maintenance analytics, and enterprise-wide stationary battery monitoring applications requiring reliable centralized electrolyte level management capability.
