Wiring diagram and jumper

Alarms for tamper contact are connected in series and therefore the loop must be unbroken to the last battery box wiring. Jumper closes the loop on each wiring that goes from battery backup to battery box and in order for an alarm to be given on the tamper connector in the battery box, a yellow jumper on wiring must be cut. Do not cut the jumper on the last wiring in the battery box, as sabotage alarms will not be given in any connected battery backup or battery box.

Adjustment of tamper switch

SABK_PLIERS_INSTRUCTION.eps

The tamper switch lever must be in the closed position when the cabinet door is closed. If the alarm goes off ("tamper alarm"), the lever may needs to be adjusted.

The lever is adjusted by the following steps:

  1. Pinch with pliers in the middle of the lever.

  2. Carefully adjust the lever in the desired direction (up / down).

  3. Check by closing the door. A click is heard when the contact is closed.

Notice

Tamper switch will not give an alarm when closed and locked the door.

Tamper switch and alarm class 3/4 according to SSF1014

  • Tamper switch must be attached to the wall to comply with alarm class 3/4 according to SSF1014.

  • The tamper switch must be connected to the system board.

If the distance is long from the wall when mounting in a rack, for example, a spaccer is needed. It is the installer's responsibility to install the appropriate spacer. The tamper switch in the cabinet must end when the cabinet door is closed. If the alarm goes off ("tamper alarm" / alarm to the control panel), the lever may need to be adjusted.

Tolerance levels for tamper contact: Alarm must be triggered when: Opening the cabinet door; > 1 mm. Breaking unit from wall:> 2.5 mm.

Maintenance

The system with the exception of batteries is maintenance-free when installed in an indoor environment.

About batteries

Batteries generate electricity through a chemical process and there is thus a natural degradation of capacity. The biggest factor in battery life is temperature. The higher the temperature, the shorter the battery life. The date of manufacture stamped on the battery and the service life (as stated by the battery manufacturer). An ideal temperature is 20 °C both in operation and in storage. Higher ambient temperature greatly reduces the service life. Thus, actual lifespan varies when used. Batteries should be replaced after half specified (from the battery manufacturer) lifetime for safe operation. Batteries purchased through the manufacturer of the battery backup have a lifespan (from the battery manufacturer) of between 10-12 years with recommended replacement after 5-6 years.

Batteridegradering.png

battery change

  • If possible, disconnect mains (voltage) when replacing the battery.

  • Disconnect battery cables. Note how battery cables are mounted before removing them.

  • Remove battery fuse between batteries.

  • Insert and fasten the new batteries.

  • Connect the battery cables in the same way as before.

  • Connect battery fuse between batteries.

  • Switch on mains voltage. The indicator LED may not be green (up to 72 hours), until the batteries are charged.

  • In order for the system to measure the capacity of new batteries, the device needs to clear previous battery capacity. Dip-switch 8 performs a software reset which, among other things, resets alarms. See Resetting data after battery change (Dip-switch 8)Resetting data after battery change (Dip-switch 8)

  • Test the system by briefly disconnecting the mains voltage, (= the load is driven by the batteries), and then switch on the mains voltage again.

Battery recycling

All batteries must be recycled. Return to manufacturer or return to recycling station.

* battery life depends mainly on ambient temperature and charging current. An AGM battery should never be charged with more than 30% of its rated capacity. The battery will be fully charges, but the charning current must not excced 30% of its rated capacity.

Installation control batteries

  1. Check that the battery is completely clean and that the terminals are free from corrosion.

  2. Check and note the temperature in the battery compartment.

  3. Check the terminal voltage of each battery before installation. If the difference between the batteries exceeds 0.5 V, the battery loop should be equalized in connection with installation. If any battery has a terminal voltage of less than 12V, this battery must be replaced with a new battery and reported to the supplier.

  4. Connect the battery and check the charging voltage. The charging voltage should be between 2.25 V - 2.27 V per cell = between 13.5 V - 13.62 V for a 12 V system and between 27.0 V - 27.24 V for a 24 V system.

Year-round inspection

  1. Check that the battery is completely clean and that the terminals are free from corrosion. If there is corrosion on the terminals: Check that the battery does not leak acid. Then clean the terminals and reconnect the battery. Then lubricate with battery terminal grease over the connected terminal.

  2. Check and note the temperature in the battery compartment.

  3. Check and note the average current.

  4. Check that all connections are securely fastened and that there is no gap in the connection.

  5. Check that the fan (if units have a fan) is working properly. Clean the fan if necessary.

  6. Check the charging voltage by measuring with a multimeter between the connection points + & amp; -. The charging voltage should be between 2.25-2.27 volts per cell = between 13.5-13.62V for a 12V system and between 27-27.24V for a 24V system.

  7. Turn off the rectifier and let the batteries rest for 10 - 15 minutes. Then measure the terminal voltage of each battery. After resting, the terminal voltage must be between 12.9 V - 13.5 V.
