Example for ATS3500A(-IP) EN Grade 3
When using battery backup as specified for EN Grade 3 using an 18 Ah battery,
the maximum available auxiliary current is 450 mA.
This current is the max grand total available current that may be used for
auxiliary components such as:
• Devices on the Advisor Advanced system databus
• Detectors on the auxiliary power output
• Communication devices via MI-bus (e.g. GSM, IP)
Temporary used current such as: Sirens and Strobes are not included.
Fuse rating must be taken into account.
