An exclusive Australian supplier of DC Power Converters and energy solutions, Powerbox Australia, recently released EnergyHub by Enatel Energy at Comms Connect Melbourne Exhibition and Conference. 

More than 1500 people from a broad range of industries attended the event seeking out the very latest communications information, technologies and solutions.

EnergyHub is a complete lithium-ion power solution for providers of power utilities, telecommunications and security, as well as transport operators.  These industry sectors have historically relied on lead-acid battery solutions and worn the associated operation costs.     

Incorporating both DC rectifier technology and integrated lithium-ion battery modules, EnergyHub from Enatel Energy offers a truly dynamic li-ion solution.  EnergyHub offers significant financial benefits because solutions are more efficient and less maintenance is required over the long term, vastly reducing operational costs when compared to the conventional lead-acid type batteries still widely used.

As organisations begin to work with brand new EnergyHub, they will notice that this revolutionary system allows for much greater energy density and depth of discharge.

“EnergyHub, which utilises li-on batteries, leaves more room for revenue-generating network equipment. Tight cell management from Enatel’s proprietary BMS in combination with the new RM848HE Rectifiers allows for optimised charging/discharging to improve system functionality,” said James Rutty, Business Development Manager of Powerbox Australia.

“In addition, the EnergyHub requires zero set-up cost, can be easily scaled up to meet changing load demands and it shares a hot pluggable interface with EnergyPak battery modules to maximise usability.”

According to Mr Rutty, safety of the system is ensured with the use of ‘Cold Terminal Design’, which stops voltage from travelling through the battery’s power and control pins to cut off the supply of current when it’s not connected to the charger.

EnergyHub offers complete transparency of all energy data including battery cycle life, depth of discharge information, cell temperature and battery end of life (EOL) notifications.

The next-generation SM controller allows network operators to monitor and control the system remotely integrating seamlessly with network and building management systems.

EnergyHub by Enatel Energy will be available in early 2019 through Powerbox Australia. 

Powerbox designs, manufactures and distributes an extensive range of high quality and reliable power conversion systems and energy solutions.

Powerbox offers a carefully chosen and evolving range of innovative products that will perform for a long time under the toughest of conditions or most demanding applications.
