Alpha ESS SMILE5 Installation, Operation & Maintenance Manual page 8

11
A SMILE5 installed in any corridor, hallway, lobby or the like and leading to an emergency
exit shall ensure sufficient clearance for safe egress of at least 1 meter.
The SMILE5 must also not be installed in potentially explosive atmospheres for gas
cylinders that are heavier than air gases and have a vent clamp in accordance with AS /
NZS 3000.
2.1.3 Barrier to Habitable Rooms
To protect against the spread of fire in living spaces where the SMILE5 is mounted or on
surfaces of a wall or structure in living spaces with a SMILE5 on the other side, the wall or
structure shall have a suitable non-combustible barrier. If the mounting surface itself is
not made of a suitable non-combustible material, a non-combustible barrier can be placed
between the SMILE5 and the surface of a wall or structure.
If the SMILE5 is mounted at a wall or at a distance of 300 mm from the wall or the
structure separating it from the habitable space, the distances to other structures or
objects must be increased. The following distances must remain free :
(i) 600 mm beside the SMILE5;
(ii) 900 mm above the SMILE5; and
(iii) 600 mm before the SMILE5.
If the distance between the SMILE5 and the
ceiling or any object above the system is less
than 900 mm, the ceiling or structural surface
a b o v e t h e s y s t e m m u s t b e m a d e o f
noncombustible material within a radius of
600 mm around the system.
The SMILE5 must be mounted to ensure the
highest point is not more than 2.2 m above the
ground or the platform.

Step 2 Open the front cover of the battery and remove the communication wiring
cover (each battery has such a cover on the left and right sides of the case.). Set the
covers aside and close the case.
NOTE:
The front cover of the battery should not be opened more than 90°

Step 3 If you use more than 1 battery module, they must be interconnected. For all
other battery modules (battery modules 2-6) you will have to remove the top cover (with
2 batteries you must remove the cover of one battery, with 3 batteries the covers of 2
batteries, with 4 batteries the covers of 3 batteries etc.) For the new version battery
please connect the power cables directly.
