This document describes the installation procedure required for the 9100EN charger and batteries. It also incorporates the technical specification for the charger and associated batteries. The 9100EN power supply is a self-contained supply designed to provide a 24V (nominal) output and charge associated batteries simultaneously. The charger uses switch-mode technology to provide a lightweight, efficient and reliable unit.
The policy of Protec Fire Detection plc is one of continuous improvement. As such we reserve the right to make changes to product specifications at any time and without prior notice. Errors and omissions excepted.
Standby Battery Requirements Only use batteries recommend by Protec (see technical specification section). The charger has been specifically designed to maintain the charge voltage at an optimum level for these batteries over the entire operating temperature range in order to maximise the life of the batteries.
The 9100EN circuit board is fully enclosed within a sealed control PCB housing. The control PCB housing must never be opened. If the 9100EN requires repair it must be sent back to the Protec factory. The batteries are fully accessible with the control PCB housing removed from the back box.
Unscrew and remove the four mounting screws on the control PCB housing. Carefully lift away the control PCB housing from the plastic enclosure. See Fig 6.1. The 9100EN power supply PCB housing and all screws should be stored in the cardboard carton away from the place of work where they will not get damaged.
A four way brass earth block is supplied with the 9100EN. Three locations are provided for this in the 9100EN back box. This allows the best location to be selected depending on wiring entry requirements.
Installing the Standby Batteries The 9100EN power supply is designed to house two 12V 3.3Ah Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries. These fit into the back-box and must be secured with the two plastic tie-wraps provided as shown in figure 6.2.
), carefully push the spade connectors of the 9100EN battery leads onto the relevant battery terminals as illustrated in figure 6.3 . Please note that at this point the 9100EN will not power up until the mains supply is connected. Red Battery cable...
‘OFF’ position. Pay particular attention that the incoming mains cable is segregated from all other cables within the 9100EN enclosure. Ensure the incoming earth cable is firmly connected to the Main PCB (see figure 6.4), and that the earth cable from the Main PCB is securely connected to the brass earth terminals within the back-box.
6.12 Switching the Mains Power On Switch the fused isolator to the ‘ON’ position. The green ‘Power’ indicator will illuminate and, assuming all other connections are correct, the 9100EN should show no fault on the display Maintenance No regular maintenance of the PSU is required. The internal microcontroller of the PSU performs regular checks to ensure the battery and outputs are healthy.
