Kyle Form 5, Form 5 UDP, Form 5 DC NOVA Recloser Control Installation and Operation Instructions

AC Reclosers

Power to operate the tripping and closing solenoids in the recloser is provided by the power capacitor located behind the operator panel of the control. A sealed, 24-volt, lead acid battery is located in the lower portion of the control cabinet and is utilized to provide operating and tripping energy when AC power is temporarily lost. The control is equipped with an ac-powered, temperature- compensated battery charger.

Operation Upon Loss Of AC Power

If the control is equipped with the standard 24 Vdc lead- acid battery, the control maintains full operation from the battery power supply for a minimum of 32 hours at 20°C (24 hours at -40°C). To prevent battery damage, the control shuts down automatically upon detection of low battery voltage below 22.7 Vdc.

Control programming settings and parameters—including event recorder, duty monitor, and data profile metering parameters—are stored in non-volatile memory and retained upon loss of control power. The time/date clock resets to 0:00:00, 1970 upon loss of control power.

The AC power LED indicator on the operator panel of the control will turn off after 15 seconds upon loss of AC power. The indicator will illuminate immediately upon return of ac power.

Initializing the Control

Two methods are available to initialize the Form 5 control.

Method 1: Connect AC power to the input connector terminal TB-1. Refer to the Customer Connections for AC Power section of this manual.

Method 2: Connect the battery terminal on the control and press the MANUAL BATTERY RECONNECT button located on the Form 5 power supply. See Figure 4.

Note: Method 2 powers the control off the battery and is not intended for long term operation.

In both methods, after initialization, set the control clock via the interface software.
