9 Battery Capacity Calculation
The required battery capacity can be calculated using the active battery calculation
spread sheet. By selecting the RFS1 V2, no. of smoke/heat alarms and adding any
ancillaries, the spread sheet will automatically calculate the battery capacity required
to maintain the system for 72 hours in standby condition followed by 4 minutes in
alarm as required by AS3786.
Manual calculation of battery capacity can also be calculated as follow:
Total Quiescent Current I
Q = _______ mA Standby time T
1
= 72 Hrs
Total Alarm Current I
A = _______ mA Alarm time T

= 4 minutes.
