Argus offers innovative powering solutions that are designed for the future; built to support expansion and provide unlimited opportunity. Widely used in cable television, communications and data networks worldwide, Argus products have earned a reputation for reliability and performance.

Over twenty-five years of aggressive research and development provides fast, effective solutions to new applications as well. Argus provides a full line of power products including: standby, non-standby and uninterruptible power supplies, surge suppressors, enclosures, batteries and powering accessories.

AlphaGuard

AlphaGuard monitors and protects your batteries by spreading the charge voltage equally across all the batteries in the string, ensuring that every battery, whether old or new, is properly charged. With an ideal voltage always across each battery, life and runtime are optimized. Individual batteries in a string can be replaced as they fail, allowing batteries to be left in service longer. This stops the wasteful and costly practice of replacing batteries based on a scheduled maintenance programs or disposing of batteries that may have years of useful life left because one battery has failed.

  • Spreads charge voltage equally across battery string
  • Optimizes charge to achieve service life
  • Compensates for battery differences as the age

AlphaGuard Potted

AlphaGuard monitors and protects your batteries by spreading the charge voltage equally across all the batteries in a string, ensuring that every battery in the string, whether old or new, is properly charged. With an ideal voltage always across each battery, life and runtime are optimized. Individual batteries in a string can be replaced as they fail, allowing batteries to be left in service longer. This stops the wasteful and costly practice of disposing of batteries that may have years of useful life left because one battery in a string fails or replacing batteries based on a scheduled maintenance program. With the optional communications cabling and interface module individual battery measurements are made at the batteries and reported, improving accuracy and allowing the power supply to determine End-of-Discharge by individual batteries instead of the string voltage and reporting to status monitoring systems.

The Potted Alpha Guard model is ideal for applications where batteries are installed below grade and subject to damp conditions or possible immersion.

  • Extends battery life for batteries installed below grade
  • Replace only single batteries, not the entire string
  • Spreads charge voltage equally across batteries
