105. Battery Installation And Connection - Philips Bodine ELI-S-600 Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

5. The factory recommends that the smaller auxiliary battery cabinet be installed first to act as a shelf for mounting the larger, heavier
electronics module. Hang auxiliary battery cabinet in position on mounting hardware and tighten securely against the wall surface
making sure the cabinet is level.
6. Hang the electronics module on its mounting hardware on top of auxiliary battery cabinet and align K.O.s between the top and bottom
cabinets. Do not tighten electronics module mounting hardware at this point.
7. Install the 7/8" plastic insulating bushings into both large K.O.s to align cabinets, then bolt the two cabinets together through the
four small K.O. locations using the 1/4"-20 bolts and hardware provided. Refer to Fig. 4 below.

8. Tighten the electronics module cabinet securely to wall surface.
9. Once the cabinets are securely fastened to the wall, run and attach conduit using the provided knock outs on the top or left-hand side
of the unit. See Fig. 1. Additional entry points, if required can be added using a metal punch. Do not drill into the cabinet as metal
filings can cause short circuits and damage the equipment. Be sure to follow all federal, state, and local codes as it pertains to
emergency circuit raceways.

105. Battery Installation and Connection

Important Safety Precautions The installer must take these precautions:
1. Wear protective clothing, eye-wear, rubber gloves and boots. Batteries contain corrosive acids or caustic alkalis and toxic materials
and can rupture or leak if mistreated. Remove rings and metal wristwatches or other metal objects and jewelry. Don't carry metal objects
in pockets where the objects can fall onto the batteries or into the Inverter system.
2. Tools must have insulated handles so that they will not short battery terminals. Do not allow a tool to short a battery terminal to
another battery terminal or to the cabinet at any time. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of the batteries, and do not lay any
objects where they could fall on to the batteries or into the cabinet.
3. Install the batteries as shown on the battery wiring diagram provided in this manual or with the battery cable kit. When connecting
cables, never allow a cable to short across a battery's terminals, the string of batteries or to the cabinet.
4. Align the cables on the battery terminals so that the cable lug will not contact any part of the cabinet even if the battery is moved.
Keep the cable away from any sharp metal edges.
5. Install the battery cables so they cannot be pinched by the Inverter system cover/door.
6. Where conductors may be exposed to physical damage, protect conductors in accordance with NEC requirements.
7. Full voltage and current are always present at the battery terminals. The batteries used in this system can produce dangerous voltages,
extremely high currents, and possible risk of electric shock. Batteries may cause severe injury if the terminals are shorted together or
to ground (earth).Be extremely careful to avoid electric shock and burns caused by contacting battery terminals or shorting terminals
during battery installation. Do not touch un-insulated battery terminals.
8. A qualified electrician who is familiar with battery systems and required precautions must install and service the batteries. Any battery
used with this unit shall comply with the applicable requirements for batteries in the standard for emergency lighting and power
equipment, UL 924. Cabinets are designed to be used with, and batteries must be replaced by identical cells or a Philips Emergency
Lighting approved equivalent. If using substitute batteries not supplied by Philips Emergency Lighting, the unit's UL listing will be
void, and the equipment may failto perform properly. The installation must conform to national and local codes as well. Keep
unauthorized personnel away from batteries.
