Device
For each device use
this formula:
AL802ULADAJ
(Current draw from battery)
A
Auxiliary Devices
B
C Notification Appliances Current must not exceed 8A (8000mA)
D Total alarm current
E Total current ratings converted to amperes (line D x 0.001)
F Number of standby hours (24 for NFPA 72, Chapter 1, 1-5.2.5).
G Multiply lines E and F.
Alarm sounding period in hours.
H
(For example, 5 minutes = 0.0833 hours.)
I Multiply lines E and H.
J Add lines G and I.
Multiply line J by 1.30.
K
(30% extra insurance to meet desired performance)
Total ampere - hours required
Units are capable of recharging 36AH battery max. If total ampere - hour required exceeds 36AH,
decrease AUX current to provide enough stand-by time for the application.
