MOP Battery and BatteryInformer Install

1) Tech will arrange access to each site prior to installation. Any sites needing assistant will

be escalated to site tech via email prior to attempting to gain access. 2) Prior to opening/accessing any equipment, the technician will call the NOCC to supply

WO# and confirm there aren’t any alarms. Tech will inform the NOCC of the SOW if requested.

3) Proper PPE will be worn and insulated tools will be used for all battery installs 4) Using carrier supplied key and T-Handle unlock and remove barrel cylinder and safely

open main cabinet door. 5) Take pictures of site (cabinet interior and exterior) prior to installation. 6) Turn battery disconnect to off position. Disconnect is located xxx. 7) Loosen and undo battery retainer, remove top terminal caps from batteries. 8) Use ½” insulated wrench to loosen and remove bolts on battery terminals 9) Remove inter-strap terminal bars 10) Secure negative and positive cables out of the way of the batteries 11) Remove batteries from cabinet shelf 12) Cover all terminals on old batteries 13) Install new batteries in cabinet shelf

14) Re-install negative and positive cables in proper location on new batteries.

15) Attach BI sensors to batteries that are already installed at the site

a) Turn battery disconnect to ‘OFF’ position. b) Loosen, [do not undo] battery retainer straps, remove top terminal caps from batteries. c) Use ½” insulated wrench to loosen bolts on battery terminals allowing enough space

to slide spade terminal of BI sensor under nut. d) Slide spade terminals under bolt head, lock and flat washer, but above the lead

positive and negative terminals observing polarity on each battery and re-torque to 80 inch pounds.

e) Secure Battery Informer with Velcro/adhesive to right lower front of battery. f) Repeat steps 2(a) – 2(e) to install a BI sensor on every battery g) Turn the battery disconnect switch to the ‘ON’ position

16) Connect the alarm wires for all BI sensors to the site alarm point

a) Using included adhesive Velcro strips, mount BI alarm Hub on left side of cabinet wall so that all BI sensor alarm wires will reach the hub.

b) Connect all BI sensor alarm wires to the BI alarm hub (in any order) using the

modular connectors. c) Identify the main site alarm panel, and locate an available alarm port. Contact NOC

and request that the identified alarm port be configured for Normally Open (NO) operation.

d) After NOC configures the alarm point, test the alarm point by attaching any jumper

wire between the terminals of the alarm port (to close the alarm circuit). Confirm the NOC identifies the test alarm condition.

e) Remove the jumper wire from the alarm point, and attach the Alarm Point Connector

(APC) to the alarm point. If the alarm port terminals are labeled, attach the black (-) terminal of the APC to the alarm port terminal labeled ground or (-). Attach the brown (+) of the APC to the other alarm port terminal. If the alarm port terminals or

the wires of the APC are not labeled, attach the APC terminals to the alarm point terminal in either order. Configuration will be confirmed in a later step.

f) Connect the alarm wire from the Battery Informer Hub to the APC female connector.

Depending upon the proximity of the hub to the alarm point, an extension wire may be required. Use aftermarket modular extension cables or fabricate and terminate an extension of appropriate length using CAT 2, 3, 4, or 5 wire terminated with an RJ11 modular connector to interconnect the hub with the APC (using center two pins).

17) Confirm proper sensor operation

a) After connection of the hub to the APC, confirm that none of the BI sensors are in an alarm state. All BI sensors should have active LCD displays, but not any Flashing RED LEDs.

b) If any sensor is flashing a RED LED, note the MHO value as displayed on the screen

and compare it to the MHO values from the remaining sensors. Check and tighten terminal connections of the sensor in the alarm state. Wait 16 minutes and note the MHO values again.

c) If the MHO value of the alarming sensor is less than 70% of the average MHO value

from the other sensors, the battery of the alarming sensor is in a failure state and should be replaced.

d) If the MHO value of the alarming sensor is above 70% of the average MHO value of

the other sensors, RESET the alarming sensor by depressing the reset button located under the label at the rear of the sensor. Depress the button until the display clears. A 30 second countdown should be apparent on the display.

18) Confirm alarm port function and alarm connections: Force a sensor into an alarm

state and contacting NOC to confirm the alarm is detected. a) Remove the negative (black) wire of any ONE BI sensor from the battery to which it

is connected. Loosen the negative battery terminal bolt slightly and slip out the spade connector of the BI.

b) Using any jumper wire, connect the battery negative terminal to the spade connector.

Simply pinch the spade and the jumper with fingers to make sufficient contact. The BI display should begin a countdown.

c) After the countdown completes, the BI sensor should be in an alarm state (Flashing RED LED)

d) Confirm the alarm is detected at the NOC.

e) If the alarm is not detected at the NOC, reverse the polarity of the APC connections to

the alarm point. Re-confirm alarm operation with NOC f) After alarm confirmation, re-connect the BI sensor directly to the negative terminal of

the battery, and torque the terminal to spec. g) After the countdown period, the BI should no longer be in alarm state, and the NOC

alarm should be cleared.

19) Dress in and secure all newly installed alarm cables. 20) Dress in and secure all reinstalled cables 21) Torque all battery bolts to factory stated spec.[located on face of battery] 22) Preform a voltage test across newly installed batteries 23) Turn battery disconnect back to on position. 24) Call NOCC to check out and be sure site is still alarm free. 25) Reinstall battery caps and retighten battery straps. 26) Take photos of install. 27) Close main cabinet door with T-Handle and reinsert barrel cylinder and lock with dimple

key.

28) Remove any garbage/extra material brought on site.

29) Replace MSDS to match new batteries.
