Fig 3-13 Battery Remote Temp Sensor (RTS) Placement
3.8 Battery Remote Temperature Sensor (RTS)
Tools Needed:
Adhesive Tape
Procedure:
1. Attach the RTS Probe to the inner side of one of the batteries with adhesive
tape.
2. For enclosures with multiple battery strings, the RTS must be located
with the WARMEST battery string. This ensures proper operation of
the battery charger’s temperature compensation circuit. Failure to
locate the RTS with the warmest battery string could result in
overcharging and premature battery failure.
3. The other side of the Temp Probe is attached to the front panel of the XMS2
power supply, in the jack labeled TEMP PROBE.
