Lucent Technologies Round Cell Batteries
6 - 6 Installation Issue 3 December 1999
Installation Guidelines
Location Lucent Technologies generally recommends that the Round Cells be
mounted on polyester battery stands. See Figure 6-2. However, for
soft-site locations and earthquake sites that already have conventional
metal battery stands, the List 1S Round Cell can be used to replace the
1680AH rectangular cells on a one-string-to-one-string basis. This also
applies to List 2S cells replacing 840AH rectangular cells in standard
arrangements. For soft-site applications of List 3S or List 4S cells,
Lucent recommends that the polyester stands be used for space
economy.
When it is necessary to install the stands where the cells will be exposed
to heat radiation or direct sunlight or where there may be temperature
differences due to the use of multi-tiered stands, building maintenance
should provide shields for the radiators, blinds for the windows, or
special ventilation for the multi-tiered stands to provide less than a 5°F
(2.8°C) temperature variation anywhere in a string.
Note
For Earthquake Zone 4, List 1S Round Cells are limited to stands two
tiers high.
