3.3.1 Normal Status

In normal status, the battery system is available for charge or discharge. The system operator must follow the guidelines below to ensure safe and optimal performance from the battery.

  • The battery must be fully charged to power the critical load for the duration of the backup time.
  • After a full discharge at maximum continuous power, cool the battery for at least 12 hours before recharging it. Immediate recharging after a full discharge at a recharging current higher than the specified standard charging current may increase the battery cell temperature to overtemperature protection. For optimal performance, delay recharging until the battery temperature returns to room temperature ± 3^ .
  • Immediate recharging after a full discharge at maximum continuous power may degrade the battery performance.

3.3.2 Minor Protection Status (Alarm)

When a minor protection (alarm status) occurs, the battery system will send a message to the UPS or other systems and request that all charge or discharge operation be stopped until the problem is corrected. Battery system will not be disconnected in minor protection status to maximize the battery's availability. Refer to Section 5 "Troubleshooting" for solutions to minor protection status.

3.3.3 Major Protection Status (Fault)

If the system detects a major protection (fault status), it will trip the MCCB to disconnect the battery system from the UPS to prevent damage to the battery. Measures must be taken to clear the major protection status and return the battery system to normal status. Personnel must be on-site to return the MCCB from “trip” to “on” position after returning the system status to normal. Refer to Section 5 “Troubleshooting” for details on solutions to major protection status.

4. Maintenance Checks

The battery system components are designed to be free of regular maintenance. Regular inspection of components and power connections are recommended to ensure proper performance. Scheduled checks of the battery system are recommended but not mandatory for optimal performance. Refer to 3.3 Operation Status and Table 3-5: Range of Operation for the battery system's operating conditions.

4.1 Daily Checks

Following is a list of items to be checked daily.

  • Rack voltage should be in its floating charge voltage.
    • Cell voltage range should be within 300mV.
  • MCCB must be on for all racks.
    • There must be no alarms or faults.
  • Maintaining room temperature and humidity according to the range of operation..

4.2 Monthly Checks

Possible ProblemSolution
Fuse Blown- When the MCCB is in the “on” position, check the continuity between the “B-” terminal and “P-” terminal.- If there is no continuity between the two terminals, the fuse is blown and must be replaced. Replace the Switchgear Assembly.
Defective Fuse Switch- If the fuse is not blown, the switch above the fuse may be malfunctioning.- Replace the Switchgear Assembly.

5.1.19 BMS Power is Off

Possible ProblemSolution
Incorrect Cabling- Check the cable connection to the terminal block on the front side of the SMPS Assembly.- Check the cable connection between the SMPS Assembly “DC OUT” and Switchgear Assembly “DC IN.”
AC Input Fuse Blown- Remove the SMPS Assembly and remove the top cover.- Check the continuity of the AC input fuse holder.- If any fuse is blown, replace the SMPS Assembly.
Defective SMPS- If all AC input connections are correctly installed and energized, but the BMS is not being powered, the SMPS Assembly may be defective. Replace the SMPS Assembly.

5.1.20 MCCB Handle Cannot be Set to "On"

Possible ProblemSolution
UPS Signaling the MCCB to Open- Check the status of the UPS. Typical operation and end of discharge or due to an emergency power off will result in a trip signal to the battery MCCB's. The MCCB's will be prevented from closing until the UPS signal is removed.
System in Fault Status- Check the indicator LED on the front side of the Switchgear Assembly- If the FAULT LED (red LED) is blinking, the major protection (fault) status is set.- Major protection must be cleared before setting the MCCB to “on.”- Press the reset button in SMPS Assembly Type A to clear the protection.
SMPS not Powered- Check the AC input connection.- Check if the AC input is energized.- If all AC input connections are correctly installed and energized, SMPS Assembly may be defective. Replace the SMPS Assembly.
Defective Cable- Check the cable connection to DC IN- If the cable is defective, replace the DC IN cable
Defective MCCB Unit- Replace the Switchgear Assembly
Defective Rack BMS- Check the indicator LED on the front side of the switchgear.- If the indicator LED is not operational or if all LED's are on, the Rack BMS may be defective.- Replace the Switchgear Assembly.

5.2 Repair Procedures
