5.0 INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
5.1 General
If you have any questions concerning the installation considerations, contact your EnerSys
®
sales/service representative for clarification or call the corporate office number listed on the
back of this manual and ask for EnerSys Reserve Power Service.
When planning the system space requirements, consider the following:
• space • ventilation
• environment • battery system configuration
• temperature • floor loading
• distance from operating equipment • floor anchoring
Table 5.1 will assist you to ensure that all requirements for installation location are considered.
Space Aisle space should be in accordance with the National Electric Code
(NEC) Article 110-16 or local codes.
Clearance from wall/equipment — 4" (10 cm) minimum
Environment Clean, cool and dry. The location should be selected to keep water,
sunlight, oil, and dirt away from all cells.
Temperature Ambient temperature between 72˚–78˚F (23˚–26˚C)
Elevated temperatures reduce operating life. Lower temperatures
reduce battery performance.
Minimize temperature variations between the cells. To avoid
temperature variation between the cells, do NOT locate the battery
near HVAC ducts or exhausts, heat sources (i.e., equipment that
generates heat) or direct sunlight.
