Preventive Maintenance 2. Preventive Maintenance This section describes preventive maintenance for the UXIM system. 2.1 Visual Inspection Visually inspect all monitor system components for damaged or frayed power cords and cables and for damaged component panels, controls, and connectors. When damage is detected, remove the equipment from service until the damage is repaired.
System Overview 3. System Overview The Universal Xplorer Industrial Monitor (UXIM) is a stationary battery monitor designed for use in Industrial or Utility applications. With standard configurations specifically designed for Utility Substations, make it ideal for NERC compliancy. Each monitor is considered a stand-alone system, in that no external computer is required for normal operation with standard provisions to integrate to customer owned Building Management or Enterprise Systems.
System Installation 4. System Installation Note: The UXIM must be installed in a restricted access location. UXIM installation requires nothing more than standard hand tools, cutters, strippers and screwdrivers. If the unit is to be wall mounted, a drill will also be required. The following is a list of the steps required for successful UXIM system installation.
Materials Received List 5. Materials Received List The following is a list of material that may have been received with your shipment. Refer to the packing slip delivered with the equipment for a complete list of materials supplied. Vertiv suggests you inventory all materials to ensure the order is complete.

System Installation Considerations 6. System Installation Considerations This section describes items that should be considered before installing the UXIM system. 6.1 Disconnect Device The Pulsed Load Lead harness which plugs into the Resistance Steps connector is the primary disconnect device. Unplug this connector to disconnect power from the UXIM. 6.2 Equipment Location Consider the placement of the equipment in the event service is required.
Installation of Tab Washers 7. Installation of Tab Washers Tab washers allow connection of the monitoring system to the battery. Standard tab washers accommodate 5/16” hardware. The tab washer location and quantity depend on the system configuration. The actual placement of these tab washers in relation to the battery post and existing hardware is critical.
Installation of Tab Washers Figure 3 - Recessed Post Tab Washer Assembly To determine tab washer placement, refer to the Configuration Connection Diagram in the back of this manual. Locate the desired configuration that will be installed. Using the wiring diagram, install the appropriate tab washer(s) on each required post.
Unit Configuration 8. Unit Configuration 8.1 Digital Input Configuration Each digital input can be configured either for a voltage or contact closure input. Refer to the table below. Note: Digital input configuration should only be performed by a qualified technician. Contact Technical Support for details.
Unit Configuration The location of the jumpers is shown in the figure below. The factory does not have the jumpers inserted. Figure 4 - Digital Input Jumper Locations 4200-106 Revision 3...
Unit Configuration 8.2 RS-485 Termination A jumper on the circuit board is used for selecting a termination resistor for RS-485 connection. In most cases, RS-485 termination is not necessary because maximum baud rate is 19200 bps (default is 9600). RS-485 termination is recommended when intermittent communications occur. RS-485 termination is enabled when the jumper is across Pins 1 and 2 of JP7 (not the factory default setting).
Equipment Mounting 9. Equipment Mounting The equipment can accommodate two types of mounting: 19” rack mount or flush mount. Standard mounting is 19” rack mounting. For 23” rack mounting, 1U rack reducing brackets are commercially available and would be required. 9.1 Flush Mounting Kit (Optional) If the flush mount option is required, optional angle brackets will need to be installed on each side of the unit.
Sense Lead Harness Connections 10. Sense Lead Harness Connections Refer to the Wiring Schematic Diagram located at the rear of this manual to determine the routing path from each Sense Lead harnesses’ connection point (J1-J8) on the equipment to the required cell voltage sense point on the battery.
Sense Lead Harness Connections Figure 7 - Voltage Sense Lead Connections to Battery XX= cable length Caution: When a load lead wire connects to the same point as a voltage sense lead, the load lead wire must be the closest to the cell's post. Verify the fuse is a 15A Slo-Blo. 4200-106 10-2 Revision 3...
Sense Lead Harness Connections 10.2 Systems with Dual or Multiple Positive and Negative Posts Systems that use dual or multiple positive and negative post interconnections require connection of the sense lead harnesses using the following guidelines. The positive sense lead wires (solid colors) and negative sense lead wires (white with colored stripe) of the harness attach to the corresponding positive and negative terminals of the battery in a way that will monitor as many strap connections as possible.
Fused Resistance Load Lead Harness Connections 11. Fused Resistance Load Lead Harness Connections There is a maximum of seven load connections available. To identify connection locations, refer to the Resistance Steps section of the UXIM Wiring Schematic drawing at the back of this manual. This drawing shows exact locations where these cables connect to the battery for each supported configuration.
Page 30
Fused Resistance Load Lead Harness Connections The fused load lead will be positioned on a single tab washer. In situations where there are sense and load leads at the same location, it is critical that the load connection be placed closest to the battery post.
Charger Cable Resistance Reading Connection 12. Charger Cable Resistance Reading Connection There is one 25’, 50’, 75’ or 100’ Charger Cable Resistance Reading harness included with each unit. From the UXIM, the Charger Cable Sense Lead cables are routed to the installation locations shown in the diagram below.
Ambient Temperature Sensor Connection 13. Ambient Temperature Sensor Connection There is one ambient temperature sensor included with each unit. This sensor comes with a prefabricated harness with 25’, 50’, 75’ or 100’ of cable. Route the cable to the desired location to capture ambient room temperature and plug the connector into the rear of the unit.
Digital Inputs Connection 14. Digital Inputs Connection There are provisions for three separate digital inputs. These can be configured to operate in two different ways. Refer to Digital Input Configuration section on page 8-1 for configuration details. To connect the device monitored, connect to one of the three inputs located on the rear of the unit. If only a switch "open/close contact"...
RS-485 Communication Connection 15. RS-485 Communication Connection There are two RS-485 ports available for communications between the UXIM and remote controllers (BMS) or accessory modules (not currently supported). Each of these ports is labeled 1 and 2. When connecting to a remote controller, connect the A & B connection of port 1 to the remote controller. When multiple units are used together and need to be connected to a remote controller, these modules can be networked together using the RS-485 (1) terminals A &...
Fiber Optic Communication Connection 16. Fiber Optic Communication Connection The Fiber Optic ports are an optional communications port used to connect to a BDSU Linker module - UXCM. When integrated with a UXCM, the UXIM will inherit a host of advanced features outlined in the BDSU Product Description Guide.
Network Communication Connection 17. Network Communication Connection The LAN network connector allows the UXIM to be connected to a Eithernet network. From an existing network, connect the network cable to the LAN connector on the UXIM. Figure 15 - Network Connection 17.1 Network Protocols Supported There are several protocols supported by the network interface and will require specific ports to be opened up on the network.
Parameter Alarm Connection 18. Parameter Alarm Connection The Parameter Alarm Form C alarm provides notification if a monitored parameter exceeds any of the programmed thresholds. This contact has three connections: • NC (normally closed) • NO (normally open) • COM (common) Connection can be made directly to the facility's alarm reporting system.
Hardware Alarm Connection 19. Hardware Alarm Connection The Hardware Alarm Form C alarm contact provides notification if a hardware failure has been detected within the UXIM. This contact has three connections: • NC (normally closed) • NO (normally open) • COM (common), Connection can be made directly to the facility's alarm reporting system.
