First Case replaces and tests UPS batteries in data centres, lead-acid and lithium, any brand, for OEMs and their channel. Batteries are the part of the standby power chain that ages first. We handle the full battery scope: change-out of complete strings, conductance testing and monitoring, all the way to certified disposal.
A battery change-out is the replacement of complete battery strings: the old fleet out, new blocks in, connected and verified per battery. In Germany we are replacing 11.600+ batteries across 50+ UPS systems this way, from 1.140 kW units to smaller systems, string by string, so the remaining capacity stays available. In the Netherlands we placed 912 AGM blocks on the existing racks.
Per battery we log voltage and conductance: the internal conduction that drops as a battery ages. Thermal imaging shows poor connections and blocks running warm. This way we measure the condition of 36.000+ batteries every year. The measurements are periodic and planned, within the windows of a live data centre.
If the client wants fixed measuring equipment on the strings, we supply and install brand-independent sensors, per block, on existing and new systems. We configure the thresholds and the alerting: a notification goes to your own organisation or to the manufacturer. We deliver periodic reporting, so replacement can be planned ahead.
The removed equipment goes to certified processing through our recycling partner. Lithium travels under ADR: the European regime for transporting dangerous goods, with the packaging and paperwork that come with it. The client receives a processing certificate that closes the file.
Replacement of complete battery strings, lead-acid and lithium. Dismantling of the old fleet, installation of the new blocks on existing or new racks, connected with insulated connectors and terminal covers.
Voltage and conductance per battery, plus thermal imaging. Planned periodically, within the windows of a live data centre, preferably on a non-live system.
Supply and installation of brand-independent sensors, per block, on existing and new systems. Whatever the brand of the UPS or battery.
Thresholds set per system, escalation route agreed together. A notification goes to your own organisation or to the manufacturer.
A report per site with the status, the findings and a replacement forecast: which batteries need attention first. Delivered within a week after a measurement round.
Certified disposal of the removed equipment through our recycling partner, lithium under ADR. Processing certificate for the client.

Certified disposal through our recycling partner, lithium under ADR. Processing certificate for the client.
Four steps, from baseline to handover. Planned with the manufacturer or their channel, executed within the windows of a live data centre.
We map the fleet: systems, strings, chemistry. The first measurement round is the baseline, the reference for everything that follows.
Change-outs and measurements are planned per system and string, coordinated with the client, so capacity stays available.
Our own engineers carry out the change-out or measurement round, ESD-safe: protected against static discharge.
A report per site with a replacement forecast. Disposal comes with the processing certificate. Then we hand over to the client.
11.600+ batteries replaced across 50+ UPS systems at a data centre in Germany, each block connected to continuous monitoring.
912 batteries replaced across three 1.500 kVA UPS systems, old blocks sent for certified disposal through our recycling partner.
Condition of 36.000+ batteries across multiple data centres, measured yearly with report and forecast.

A change-out is the replacement of complete battery strings: the old fleet out, new blocks in, connected with insulated connectors and terminal covers, and verified per battery before release. In Germany we are replacing 11.600+ batteries across 50+ UPS systems this way, from 1.140 kW units to smaller systems. In the Netherlands we placed 912 AGM blocks on the existing racks.
We work with every chemistry, lead-acid (VRLA) as well as lithium (Li-ion), and with every brand. For both we handle the removal of the old fleet, the installation of the new blocks on existing or new racks, the connection and the verification per battery. For lithium, transport under ADR comes on top: the European regime for transporting dangerous goods, with the packaging and paperwork that come with it.
Yes. We plan the change-out per system and per string, agreed with the client, so the remaining capacity stays available. That way we work within the windows of a live data centre. Every battery is verified before the string is released.
