F
Number of standby hours (24 for NFPA 72, Chapter 1, 1-5.2.5). H
G
Multiply lines E and F. Total stand-by AH AH
H
Alarm sounding period in hours.
(For example, 5 minutes = 0.0833 hours.)
H
I
Multiply lines E and H. Total alarm AH AH
J
Add lines G and I. Total stand-by and alarm AH AH
K
Multiply line J by 1.30.
(30% extra insurance to meet desired performance)
Total ampere - hours required
AH
Units are capable of recharging 36AH battery max. If total ampere - hour required exceeds 36AH,
decrease AUX current to provide enough stand-by time for the application.
