H2scan Expands HY-GUARD® into a Complete Battery Safety Monitoring System

VALENCIA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--H2scan®, a leader in hydrogen monitoring solutions, has announced the expansion of its HY-GUARD solution into a turnkey battery safety monitoring system designed to support a wide range of standby power and energy-storage applications.

The expanded HY-GUARD system provides H2scan’s signature continuous hydrogen monitoring for battery technologies ranging from lead-acid and nickel-cadmium to lithium-ion systems. By detecting developing battery conditions early, the system gives facility and safety teams additional time to investigate, respond and prevent an abnormal condition from escalating.

“Battery installations are becoming larger, more complex and more critical to facility operations,” said David Ellis, President & CEO. “The expanded HY-GUARD system gives customers a flexible monitoring system that can be configured around their battery applications, facility layout and safety requirements.”

The HY-GUARD family combines hydrogen sensing, remote monitoring, local visibility and flexible communication capabilities into a scalable battery safety solution. Customers can deploy the appropriate level of monitoring for individual battery cabinets, rooms or larger battery energy storage systems.

Key customer benefits include:

  • Accurate and early indication of developing battery conditions
  • Continuous monitoring across multiple battery technologies
  • Flexible installation for cabinets, rooms and energy-storage containers/facilities
  • Local visibility and integration with facility safety systems
  • Continuous self-calibration eliminates the need for manual calibration and bump tests, ensuring long-term operational reliability.
  • Long lifespan that matches or surpasses the battery's service life
  • Scalable coverage for new and existing battery installations

The expanded platform includes HY-GUARD monitoring products: the HY-GUARD® RS lithium monitor and the HY-SIGHT™ monitoring interface. Together, these components provide a flexible path from localized detection to system-wide battery safety visibility.

The HY-GUARD platform supports H2scan’s broader mission of turning continuous hydrogen data into actionable situational intelligence in order to help customers identify abnormalities sooner, reduce operational risk and protect critical infrastructure.
