service life of 5 – 7 years. This time, however, strongly depends on the relevant ambient temperature.<br />

(Up to 20 °C: 7 – 8 years as shown in diagram 1)<br />

If the system will not be used for an extended period of time, the batteries should be fully charged to<br />

prevent a total discharge. (Refer to item 7 "Storage") While the system is not used, the battery fuse<br />

has to be removed to prevent total discharge.<br />

6.1 Battery change<br />

Pb<br />

Lead-gel batteries contain harmful toxic substances. Observe valid safety directives when<br />

during handling and transport. For disposal, comply with local directives.<br />

Batteries bear the risk of excessive short-circuit currents. Never create any direct contact<br />

between the battery posts and or other conductive component parts. Therefore remove any<br />

wristband, watch, finger rings or other metal objects when working at the open unit. Always<br />

use tools with standard isolating handles.<br />

Batteries may be replaced only by the same type of battery (2 x 12 V; 24 Ah). We recommend the use<br />

of two batteries type BAT 12-24, <strong>Tunstall</strong> Order No. 00 0648 87. The use of other makes may create<br />

problems due to different connecting terminals or differing dimensions.<br />

1. Shut off mains supply to the power supply unit UPS 60 !!!<br />

2. Refer to the information for the battery set for UPS 60, order no. 77 3450 00.<br />

3. Perform a functional check of the power supply UPS 60!<br />

7. Storage<br />

If the power supply unit UPS 60 will not be used for an extended period of time, the connected<br />

batteries must first be fully recharged to preclude battery damage due to total discharging. (Refer to<br />

item 6 Battery service life).<br />

• For the charging process, the power supply unit UPS 60 shall be connected to the mains supply<br />

for at least 4 hours, and the UPS function shall be activated by placing the bridging contact<br />

between "x“ and "y“.<br />

• While the power supply unit UPS 60 is not used, the power supply unit UPS 60 must be<br />

disconnected from the batteries of battery set for UPS 60 to prevent total discharge.<br />
