Battery Cabinet Installation Site - LEGRAND Keor Compact Manuel D'installation

3. Installation
Follow the instructions in chapter 5 when storing the EBC.
WARNING
Move the EBC very carefully, lifting it as little as possible and avoiding dangerous swings or falls.
The EBC and the batteries are heavy. The cabinet may tip and cause serious injury. For any lifting, use a forklift or a pallet
truck with an adequate carrying capacity, placing the forks in the wooden base and making sure they come out the other
side by at least twenty centimetres.
The equipment must always be handled by trained and instructed personnel equipped with the Personal Protective
Equipment illustrated in chapter 2.

Battery cabinet installation site

The UPS system installation, including the EBC, must meet the following guidelines:
- The support surface must be scaled in for the carrying capacity necessary to support the equipment.
- Dust or corrosive/explosive gasses must be absent.
- The site must be free of vibration and there should be enough lighting.
- The system must be installed in a temperature and humidity controlled indoor. The ambient temperature range is 0-40°C
(32-104°F) with a maximum relative humidity of 95%, non-condensing. However, the recommended operating range is
20-25°C (68-77°F) to ensure nominal battery lifetime.
INDICATION
Operating temperatures above the recommended range will result in decreased battery life and performance, and will
reduce or void the battery warranty.
- The rear and side space must be enough to guarantee an adequate circulation of air for cooling.
- The battery cabinet should be installed in a room with adequate air ventilation flow to avoid dangerous concen-
tration of hydrogen gas that can be produced during battery recharge. The maximum concentration of hydrogen
in the room should be kept below 0,8% by volume. The room ventilation air flow should be adequate to renew the
air especially in the volume of the room above the battery cabinets and below the ceiling where the hydrogen gas
concentrates. The necessary minimum air flow in m3/hour is depending on the battery technology, the number of
cells, the nominal cell capacity.
Refer to stationary battery installation standards and battery manufacturer recommendation.
- The external battery cabinet must be accessible on all sides for assistance or periodic servicing.
