Maintenance - Altronix AL300ULM Installation Manual

Unit should be tested at least once a year for the proper operation as follows:
Output Voltage Test: Under normal load conditions, the DC output voltage should be checked for proper voltage level
(Output Voltage and Stand-by Specification Charts, pg. 4).
Battery Test: Under normal load conditions check that the battery is fully charged, check specified voltage at
the battery terminals and at the board terminals marked [+ BAT-- ] to insure that there is no break in the battery
connection wires.
Note: AL300ULXB, AL400ULXB, AL600ULXB and AL1012ULXB (Power Supply Board) maximum charge
current is .7 amp.
AL1024ULXB (Power Supply Board) maximum charge current is 3.6 amp.
