Non-Interlock AVR 45, 75, 95 AH ™ Installation and Operation Manual Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals Proposition known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Batteries also contain Warning: other chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 10. The below IEEE Standards contain additional information. Other standards may be relevant to your specific application. Although all valve-regulated cells have the electrolyte immobilized IEEE 1184 - Guide for Batteries for UPS Systems within the cell, the electrical hazards associated with batteries IEEE 1187 –...
Storage / Refresh System Installation Continued 5. Whenever a refresh charge is required, it’s important that all System Shipment batteries to be installed in the same series string receive a charge at the same time to ensure continuity once placed in Battery string will be received per drawing below.

4. Anchor holes can be marked and drilled with bases in place. 8. Module connecting hardware is furnished with a dragon tooth Consult Appendix C for anchor hole pattern. All anchor washer in place of a lock washer and flat washer. holes in base are required to be used to meet seismic re- The dragon tooth washer is used to enhance the electrical quirements.
Safety Shield Bracket Assembly 1. Safety shield brackets are to be installed at the outside corners of every 2 modules starting from the bottom and working towards the top. This is to be repeated for each stack in the battery system. For stacks containing odd number of modules an additional set of safety shield brackets will be required to be installed at the top of the module.
2. Safety shield brackets are to be installed at the top of the Electrical Connection module in the same manner as detailed previously. Tighten, do not torque hardware. Connector Assembly 1. The contact surfaces of each individual post on every cell have been cleaned and coated with a thin film of No-Ox-ID “A”...

4. Unigy II battery strings are typically supplied with connector package 1CU requiring one connector per post. 1CU Package Detail 5. High rate applications will require multiple connectors to be used per cell post. A 2CU connector package will require 2 connectors per connection (1 per side), see example below.

6. Some installations require a vertical “C” connector. This 17 to 27 Plate “C” connector is limited to a 2CU connector package. 1. Install “L” connector with vertical bolt as below. Bolt Consult below for proper installation for particular cell type should be installed loosely for future adjustments.
Terminal Assembly 29 to 33 Plate 1. Install “L” connector with vertical bolt as below. Bolts Top Termination should be installed loosely for future adjustments. Duplicate connection process at both connection points. Consult battery string layout diagram for termination location. 1.

Final Assembly Check Procedure 1. For future identification, individual cells should be numbered in electrical connection sequence, beginning with number one (1) at the positive end of the battery string. NOTE: Following steps are to be followed with battery disconnected from any load or charge source. 2.
Battery Operation Top Protection Shield Installation Battery string operating temperature will affect battery string For side terminal assembly, attach top protective cover to highest capacity and operating life. front shield. Temperatures greater than 77°F (25°C) will reduce the operating For top terminal assembly, cut protective cover to fit between life of the battery.
Acceptance Testing MAINTENANCE Each cell should be at 100% State of Charge prior to Always wear eye protection when working on or near batteries. performing an acceptance test on the battery system. To ensure Keep sparks and open flames away from batteries at all times. the cells are fully charged the following charge schedule should Review Safety Precautions on (pg b.3).
Battery Cleaning c. Unscrew valve ¼ turn using 17mm hex key (pressure will release). Batteries, cabinets, racks, and modules should be cleaned with clean d. Tighten valve immediately and torque to 12-14 in lb with water. If neutralizing is required use a mixture of 1 lb baking soda to 17mm hex key.
8. Pull cell from module onto lifting device. Care should be taken so lifting device does not come in contact with cell posts. Cell Replacement Procedure 1. Cells develop internal pressure. Relieving this pressure from the cell will make it easier to install the cell into the module. Follow the steps of “Cell Removal Procedure”...
