Basic Guidelines
Danger
Danger
Contact the site operations manager or other responsible local personnel before commencing work. Inform all
personnel near the equipment that work is in progress and the equipment is under power.
Reduce the risk of accidents and increase the operation reliability by keeping the power or cooling room clean
and clear of any unauthorized material.
While work is in progress, the equipment also must be protected against damages and unauthorized intervention.
Busbars, live cabinets, etc., shall be protected during work using protective sheeting.
Never work alone in the power or cooling room. Do not leave equipment with unprotected parts under power
unattended.
Inform the site operations manager or other responsible local personnel when the work is complete.
Thunderstorms
Danger
Danger
Avoid working with electrical installations or being close to towers during thunderstorms.
Thunderstorms generate strong electric fields that may result in lightning strokes. It is essential that equipment
and facilities be properly earthed to minimize the risks of personal injury and equipment damage.

Introduction
The boost charge function can be programmed to start under the following conditions.
1. Automatic start after Commercial AC Fault (programmed to start after low battery capacity or high battery charging
current is detected) or Battery Test
2. Manual start
3. Cyclic start after a predefined time schedule
Temperature compensated battery charge
In order to extend battery life, the controller can automatically adjust system voltage as battery ambient temperature
changes. Battery temperature compensated charging is a function that lowers system voltage when battery
temperature increases and raises system voltage when battery temperature decreases.
System voltage follows the characteristics as shown in Figure 1-4.

Introduction
individually. There is one reconnection level for all LVDs. These LVDs can be used for load disconnection
and/or battery disconnection.
LVD Disconnection Setting Precautions
(1) The disconnection level for load contactor should be set higher than the battery contactor so that the load
contactor can always be disconnected before the battery contactor.
(2) Maximum 1 LVD is used for battery disconnection to protect from the large current difference between
batteries (using the internal LVD2 of the controller is suggested). When Commercial AC returns, the batteries
can be close to complete discharge and the voltage difference can generate a large current. Therefore, the
current of rectifiers should be limited before the battery reconnection.
The controller can individually disable LVD1 and LVD2, preventing the contactor from opening during an LVD
condition.
The controller can reconnect the LVDs when the Commercial AC Fault alarm is inactive and system voltage is
higher than the reconnection level.
An LVD alarm is issued when the controller automatically or a User through the controller manually activates an
LVD. An LVD Detection Fault alarm is also issued when the controller detects the auxiliary input status is not
identical with the LVD operation.

corresponding relay output cannot be set through the LCD. The alarm levels of these two alarms and the
corresponding relay are the same with those of the high temperature alarm setting.
2. If the analog alarm has two levels of alarm thresholds, and if these two alarm thresholds are set to the same value,
then the second level will be cancelled and the first level of the alarm will be displayed in LCD. For example: If the
alarm threshold of high temperature 1 is set to the same with the threshold of high temperature 2, and if this
threshold is set to 40 deg C, then when the temperature exceeds 40 deg C, the system will only issue high
temperature 1 alarm, and will not issue the high temperature 2 alarm.

Limit: set the charging current limit. This is the maximum charging current that should be allowed into the battery at
any time, as regards to the nominal capacity of the battery. For example, a value of 0.150C10 means that the
charging current is limited to 15% of the batterys nominal capacity.
Over: set the over boost charging current. This is the charging current, as regards to the nominal capacity of the
battery, at which an over current alarm will be initiated if this current is reached. For example, a value of 0.300C10
means that when the charging current reaches 30% of the batterys nominal capacity, an alarm will be extended.
AutoBoost: An Automatic Boost is started when one of the following conditions is reached.
-Enable: Use this submenu to enable or disable auto boost charging.
-Curr: This is the battery discharge current, as regards to the nominal capacity of the battery, above which an
Automatic Boost is started, when the Automatic Boost function is enabled. For example, a value of 0.060C10 means
that an Automatic Boost is started if the battery current is greater than 6% of the batterys nominal capacity.
-Cap: This is the remaining battery capacity under which (less than) an Automatic Boost is started when the
Automatic Boost function is enabled.
CycBoost
-Enable: Use this submenu to enable or disable cyclic boost charging.
-Period: Use this submenu to set cyclic boost charging period. This is the interval, in hours, between the boost
cycles.
-Time: Use this submenu to set cyclic boost charging time. This is the duration of each cycle for the Cyclic Boost
when this function is enabled.
Const Boost
-Curr: Use this submenu to set constant boost charging current.
-Time: Use this submenu to set constant boost charging time.
BoostLimitTime: Use this submenu to set boost charging time limit beyond which boost charge will be stopped.
Move cursor to Test, you can configure the following parameters:
End Test: A Battery Test is interrupted when one of the following conditions is reached.
-Volt: This is the end of test voltage level for each battery test.
-Time: This is the maximum duration, in minutes, for each battery test.
-Cap: This is the remaining battery capacity, as regards to the nominal capacity of the battery, at which a Battery Test
will be interrupted. For example, a value of 0.700C10 means that when the charging current reaches 70% of the
batterys nominal capacity, the battery test is interrupted.
Cyc Test: Displays whether the time (on specific dates) battery test function is enabled (Y) or not (N). During a Timed
Battery Test, the output voltage of the rectifiers is reduced so that the batteries power the load. If the batteries fail, the
rectifiers power the load.
Short Test: A short test is a short duration battery discharge test used to verify that parallel batteries are discharging
equally. If the discharge current difference between the two batteries exceeds a preset level (default is 10 A), a Short
Test Fault alarm is generated.
-Enable: Displays whether the short (at specific intervals) battery test function is enabled (Y) or not (N).
-Alarm: Displays the battery current difference at which an alarm will be extended.
-Time: Displays the interval, in hours, between short battery tests.
-Duration: Displays the duration, in minutes, of each short battery test.
ConCurr Test: A Constant Current test is a battery discharge test done at constant current. The controller will
automatically adjust the rectifiers to maintain the battery discharge current at the preset value.
-Enable: Displays whether the constant current battery test function is enabled (Y) or not (N).
-Current: Displays the stable test current.
Move cursor to TEMP COMP, you can configure the following parameters:
Center Temp: Displays the temperature, in C, at which the system operates at normal voltage levels.
Temp 1: Displays whether a temperature probe on MB is installed and enabled (Battery or Ambient) or not (None)
in position No. 1, and if there is one, whether it is used for battery or ambient temperature measurements.

in position No. 2, and if there is one, whether it is used for battery or ambient temperature measurements.
Coeff: Displays the temperature compensation slope or rate of change per C above or below the normal operation
level selected in the second line. This value is expressed in millivolt per C per string (mV/C/str). For example, for a
rate of change of 72mV/C/str in a 24-cell, 48 V nominal, battery string, the rate of change is 3 mV per cell.
