UB10.242 24V, 10A, DC-UPS U–Series 12. CHECK WIRING AND BATTERY QUALITY TESTS The DC-UPS is equipped with an automatic “Check Wiring” and “Battery Quality” test. “Check Wiring” test: Under normal circumstances, an incorrect or bad connection from the battery to the DC-UPS or a missing (or blown) battery fuse would not be recognized by the UPS when operating in normal mode. Only when back up is required would the unit not be able to buffer. Therefore, a “check wiring” test is included in the DC-UPS.
UB10.242 24V, 10A, DC-UPS U–Series 14. RELAY CONTACTS AND INHIBIT INPUT The DC-UPS is equipped with relay contacts and signal inputs for remote monitoring and controlling of the unit. Relay contacts: Ready: Contact is closed when battery is charged more than 85%, no wiring failure is recognized, input voltage is sufficient and inhibit signal is not active. Buffering: Contact is closed when unit is buffering.

UB10.242 24V, 10A, DC-UPS U–Series 28. APPLICATION NOTES 28.1. BATTERY REPLACEMENT INTERVALS Batteries have a limited life time. They degrade slowly beginning from the production and need to be replaced periodically. The design life figures can be found in the individual datasheets of the batteries and usually is specified according to the Eurobat guideline or according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
UB10.242 24V, 10A, DC-UPS U–Series Example for calculating the service life and the required replacement cycle: Parameters for the example: A 26Ah battery with a design life of 10-12 years is used The average ambient temperature is 30°C One buffer event consumes approx. 25% of the achievable buffer time. One buffer event every two days Calculation: Ambient temperature influence: According to Fig. 28-1 curve C, a 5 years service life can be expected for an ambient temperature of 30°C.
UB10.242 24V, 10A, DC-UPS U–Series 28.3. USING THE INHIBIT INPUT The inhibit input disables buffering. In normal mode, a static signal is required. In buffer mode, a pulse with a minimum length of 250ms is required to stop buffering. The inhibit is stored and can be reset by cycling the input voltage. As long as the inhibit signal is active in normal mode, an internal relay contact will be opened and the battery will not longer be charged.
