6.4 Battery Cabinets

You can enhance the protection time provided by your UPS by adding one or more battery

cabinets. The battery cabinets provided by the UPS manufacturer are equipped with sealed

lead-acid, maintenance-free batteries in a cabinet that matches the UPS. Each battery

cabinet contains a battery circuit breaker. Several battery capacities are available.

The UPS battery cabinets can be paralleled. With this capability, you can increase your

battery backup time by adding battery cabinets to your UPS system. The Powerware 9315

can support up to four battery cabinets.

6.5 External Battery Disconnect

A breaker is located inside each battery cabinet supplied by the UPS manufacturer.

However, due to space limitations, your battery cabinets may not be located in the same

area as your UPS. An optional external DC circuit breaker provides a manual means of

disconnecting a battery that is located remotely from the UPS. The circuit breaker is

enclosed in a wall-mounted box. You can install it anywhere between the remote DC

supply and the UPS, according to national and local codes.

The breaker switch should be set to ON for normal UPS operation when DC power is

available at the UPS. When service personnel are performing maintenance on the UPS or

battery cabinet, the switch should be set to OFF.

NOTE

There is no DC disconnect device within the UPS.

NOTE

The DC input to the UPS is protected by internal fuses F21 and F22.

NOTE

The UPS DC disconnect trip signal from TB4, points 1 and 2 (shunt trip) or TB4,

points 1 and 3 (UV trip) must be connected to the DC source disconnect device(s).
