1 – Introduction

Tripp Lite’s Extended-Run 3-Phase Battery Cabinets connect to SmartOnline 3-Phase UPS Systems to provide long-lasting battery backup for data centers, telecommunications, networks, industrial facilities, security, emergency systems and other mission-critical applications that require high capacity, high availability and extended runtime.

Features

fBattery cabinets are available in voltages from 240 VDC through 480 VDC and capacities from 33 to 720 ampere-hours with a constant power rating of up to 595 kW @ 15-minute rate.

fBattery cabinets contain multiple 6 or 12 VDC batteries connected in series for higher voltages or in series-parallel for higher voltages and capacities. Multiple battery cabinets may be connected in series for increased runtime.

fDepending on the number of individual batteries contained, each battery cabinet will have 2, 3 or 4 tiers with 8, 10 or 12 individual batteries (maximum) per tier.

fThe battery cabinet structure is rated up through Seismic Zone 4 applications in compliance with the Uniform Building Code. Removable access panels facilitate periodic maintenance. There is a minimum of 6 inches of clearance above the individual batteries for access to terminals.

fBattery cabinet frame and rails are 10 gauge steel; exterior panels are 16 gauge steel. Baked powder coat finish provides chip and corrosion resistance.

fBattery cabinet is shipped bolted to pallet with a double layer of protective stretch wrap and integrated corner and top protection.

fAppropriate ventilation and convection cooling of the individual batteries is provided via ½-inch spacing between batteries. Front and rear vents allow the free flow of warmer air out of the battery cabinet.

fThe internal battery series or series-parallel circuits are completely wired. The negative leg of each series string of batteries terminates into an insulated terminal block.

fAn optional molded case circuit breaker is available for over-current protection. (The molded case circuit breaker can be fitted with a UV relay, shunt trip and auxiliary contacts as additional options.)

fUser-supplied power output cables can be fed into the battery cabinet through built-in 8-inch conduit knockouts in the top or sides of the cabinet (gland plate included). Shorting bars provide a positive landing power connection for parallel strings in a single cabinet. All available power connection points are at the top of the cabinet, above the topmost tier of batteries.

fFor improved safety, higher power density and minimized maintenance, the cabinet systems use Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) recombinant batteries. The electrolyte in these batteries is immobilized in either an absorbent mat separator or a gelling medium, eliminating the spilling hazards and maintenance requirements of free liquid electrolyte. There is no need to add water or measure specific gravity.

fBecause the batteries are recombinant cells that employ an oxygen recombination cycle, minimal gasses are emitted during normal float charging. Each cell contains an individual valve which releases the gas products of overcharge and prevents pressure build-up within the cell.

fSelect battery cabinets (“C” models) include an integrated battery charger.
