Store all batteries at 10° to +30° C (50° to +86° F). Batteries will have a longer shelf life if stored at 10° to +30° C (50° to +86° F). The Synchron electronics and battery cabinets may be stored at -20° to +60° C (-4° to +140° F).
Synchron inverter Systems are UL Listed for 20° to 30° C (+ 68° to +86° F) operation. The Synchron Inverter System has a designed operating range of 0° to +40° C (+32° to +104° F) at up to 95% relative humidity. Installation in environments at the temperature extremes of the designed operating range may effect unit performance or reduce service life.
104. Cabinet Mounting The Synchron 400 and 525 VA models are supplied with two full length brackets for wall mounting; while the 750 VA and up models are designed for floor mounting. These are also supplied with side mount stabilizing brackets to secure the cabinet to the wall.
Keep the cable away from any sharp metal edges. 5. Install the battery cables so they cannot be pinched by the Synchron inverter system cover/door. 6. Where conductors may be exposed to physical damage, protect conductors in accordance with NEC requirements.
105.2 Installation Considerations This section explains how to install the Synchron system’s batteries, fuses, and cables. A qualified electrician who is familiar with battery installations and applicable building and electrical codes should install the batteries. 105.3 Battery Installation Procedure Battery Voltage: Select which wiring diagram to use from this table:...
B. Before installing, maintaining, or servicing the unit, always remove or shut off all sources of AC and DC power and shut off the Synchron inverter system. Disconnect AC line input at the service panel and turn off the Main DC Switch and the Main AC Switch to make sure the unit will not supply output voltage.
DC Switch, all output circuit breakers, and the AC input at the service panel are all off before making AC connections to the Synchron inverter system. 4. If not previously done, remove knockouts for AC Input and AC Output in the top of the Synchron inverter system (See Figure 1 in Section 104.1).
Start Up. 1. Make sure the front cover/door is installed and secured shut. 2. Turn on the input circuit breaker in the building service panel serving as the AC disconnect to the Synchron system. 3. Open the front access panel so that the input/output circuit breakers within the Synchron unit are accessible.
200. STATUS INDICATORS The Synchron system is equipped with 3 LED indicators, and an audible alarm, showing the operating mode of the inverter, and also to alert you of any possible abnormal conditions. Depending on which of the LEDs are On, Off, or Blinking, will indicate a very specific condition.
Simply depress the button and hold to test the inverter at anytime. Once released, the Synchron will revert back to standby operation; this may take a few seconds to allow the unit to synchronize back to...
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 battery cabinet or the Synchron inverter system cover/doors.
