Configuring a FIP

 

Suggest that two 12V, 10 Ahr sealed batteries from list in Section 3.3.3. would be adequate (or next size up, e.g. 17 Ahrs).

Note that these require a 68E, 10W battery test resistor to be fitted to the tabs on the MAF/PSU as described in Section 5.3.5.

5.3.4BATTERY SIZE

The maximum battery size given in the specification, Section 3.3.3, of 220mm x 220mm x 175mm, is imposed by the cardframe, which obstructs insertion and removal of batteries in the bottom of the cabinet.

The maximum sizes which fit within this size are:

Sonnenschein

A212/36A

36

AHr

Powersonic

PS-12400

40

Ahr

Yuasa

NP38-12

38 Ahr

Century Yuasa

PS-12400

40

Ahr

IRH BB Battery

BP40-12

40

Ahr

Panasonic

LC-X1242P(AP)

42

Ahr

YHZ Power

NP38-12

38 Ahr

If batteries larger than this are required, then the cardframe can be made removable by replacing the 3 pop rivets with M4 or M5 screws and nuts.

For an FP0550, or an FP0551 with a removable cardframe, the maximum allowable size is 220H x 260W x 175D.

The maximum sizes which fit within this restriction are:

Sonnenschein

A212/50A

50 Ahr

Powersonic

PS-12600

60 Ahr

Yuasa

NP38-12

38 Ahr

Fitting and removing batteries of this maximum size is difficult, and may require the removal of any modules or brackets fitted in the bottom of the cabinet.

These very large size batteries may also impede the plugging in and removal of modules fitted to the bottom position of the cardframe.

Battery Combinations

Large capacity batteries can be made up of two parallel sets of 24V batteries of smaller capacities. This allows easier fitting, and allows larger capacities, and a greater range of capacity, to be achieved than is possible with a single pair (as indicated above).

Examples of combinations that will fit in an FP0551 with no cardframe removal required.

1.2 Powersonic PS-12330 (33 Ahr) batteries in parallel with 2 Powersonic PS-12100 (10 Ahr) batteries gives a total of 43 Ahr.

2.2 sets of 2 Powersonic PS-12280 (28 Ahr) will provide 56Ahr and will fit side by side on the bottom of an FP0551.
