Battery input – Rockwell Automation 1606-XLS240-UPS Power Supply Reference Manual User Manual
Page 7

All parameters are specified at 24V, 10A output load, 25°C ambient and after a 5 minutes run-in time unless noted otherwise.
It is assumed that the input power source can deliver a sufficient output current.

8. Battery Input
The DC-UPS requires one 12V VRLA battery to buffer the 24V output.

*) The charging time depends on the duration and load current of the last buffer event. The numbers in the table represent a
fully discharged battery. A typical figure for a buffer current of 10A is 3h 20 min (200 min) for a 7Ah battery.
**) The current between the battery and the DC-UPS is more than twice the output current. This is caused by boosting the 12V
battery voltage to a 24V level.
This high current requires large wire gauges and short cable length for the longest possible
buffer time. The higher the resistance of the connection between the battery and the DC-UPS, the lower the voltage on the
battery terminals which increases the discharging current. See also section 25 for further installation instructions.
***) To ensure longest battery lifetime, the DC-UPS has a battery deep discharge protection feature included. The DC-UPS stops
buffering when the voltage on the battery terminals of the DC-UPS falls below a certain value. The yellow LED will show
“buffer time expired” for a period of 15 minutes after the unit stopped buffering.
