Battery Installation

4.5BCB Shunt Trip

The Liebert NX battery cabinet has the shunt trip installed in the circuit breaker. When a DC ground fault (using the optional DC Ground Fault kit), a battery overtemperature or EPO is activated, the shunt trip will open the circuit breaker.

NOTE

The Liebert NX battery Cabinet circuit breaker will not open at the end of a battery discharge. The UPS will isolate the batteries internally in this situation.

4.6Alber Monitoring System—Optional

The Liebert® matching battery cabinet allows installing an optional Alber® battery monitoring system in the cabinet. The Alber Battery Monitoring by Liebert continuously checks all critical battery parameters, such as cell voltage, overall string voltage, current and temperature. Automatic periodic tests of internal resistance of each battery will verify the battery’s operating integrity. Additional capabilities include automatic internal DC resistance tests and trend analysis providing the ability to analyze performance and aid in troubleshooting.

The Alber monitoring system is installed inside the battery cabinet (see Figure 9). The monitoring system requires approximately 0.5A, single-phase 480V.

NOTE

This power must be UPS protected.

This power can come from the output terminals of the UPS, a distribution panel, or another UPS-protected source. This power is to be field supplied. See Figure 37 for wiring location.

For details about operating the Alber system, see the Alber Monitoring System manual.
