1.4 The Battery Integration Tray
The optional Battery Integration Tray (BIT) eliminates the need for battery slide trays, and
allows batteries to be individually installed or removed in PWE-3/6 enclosures. Each battery
is connected directly to the BIT using modular 50A connectors.
The BIT further improves wire management by pre-terminating connections for status
monitoring voltage sense leads and for the AlphaGuard battery balancer. This eliminates the
need to stack multiple wire terminations on each battery terminal, vastly simplifying battery
replacement. Battery preventative maintenance is virtually eliminated when the BIT is used
in conjunction with the new AlphaCell threaded-insert batteries, which do not have to be re-
torqued.
Key Features:
• Improves enclosure wire management and reduces clutter
• Eliminates the need for sliding battery trays
• Reduces battery preventive maintenance costs
• Pre-wired for status monitoring and AlphaGuard, eliminating stacked leads
• Allows direct connection to the AlphaGen DC portable generator
• Factory installed option in PWE-3/6 enclosures
