During Power Fault alarm Power Fault alarm, DC power supply has no output voltage. Verify that the otput power is not overloaded or short-circuited.
  • Page 44: Maintenance

    Verify lightning and grounding protection is in good condition. • For Li-ion back-up battery, verify their state. Deeply discharged battery should be return to Comba for replacement. To check the Li-ion battery: switch off the AC power supply after operating for 24 hours. If the voltage of the Li-on battery drops to below 16V within one hour, the Li-ion battery has been over-discharged and replacement of the battery is recommended.
