Acceptance and Initial Inspection
Each Form 6 recloser control is completely assembled,
tested, and inspected at the factory. It is carefully calibrated,
adjusted and in good condition when accepted by the
carrier for shipment.
Upon receipt, inspect the carton for signs of damage.
Unpack the control and inspect it thoroughly for damage
incurred during shipment. If damage is discovered, file a
claim with the carrier immediately.
Handling and Storage
Be careful during handling and storage of the control to
minimize the possibility of damage. If the control is to be
stored for any length of time prior to installation, provide a
clean, dry storage area. If storage is in a humid atmosphere,
make provisions to keep the control circuitry energized.
Note: To energize the control, apply AC power to the AC supply
input terminal block located in the lower right hand
corner of the back panel of the control. Refer to the
Customer Connections for AC Power section in this
manual.
Control Battery Storage and Charging
The 24 VDC control battery in the Form 6 recloser control is
fully charged prior to shipment and is ready for use.
Temperature has an effect on battery life. Sealed lead acid
batteries should be stored, fully charged, at room
temperature. Never store lead acid batteries at temperatures
exceeding 47°C (117°F), as damage can result in
approximately one month.
The batteries must be tested and charged for 24 hours
following every three months of storage from the last test
date. A separate portable charger accessory is available.
Catalog Number KA43ME7001 provides a 120 Volt battery
charger to power individual batteries.
Note: When shipped from the factory, the battery source is
disconnected and its output plugs are taped to the
cabinet. Connect the battery plugs into the mating
connectors to complete the battery circuit.
Control Power
The control is powered from 120 or 240 VAC. The selector
switch on the power supply board allows the user to select
between 120 VAC or 240 VAC.
Note: The selector switch is factory-set for each control based
upon the customer order requirement.
Battery Replacement and Disposal
The 24 VDC control battery has a life expectancy of four
years. It is recommended that the battery be replaced after
four years or if the battery fails a battery test - whichever
occurs first.
Note: Battery life is decreased at higher temperatures.
Dispose expired batteries in an environmentally responsible
manner. Consult local regulations for proper battery
disposal.
