Application, Maintenance and Installation Manual

Revision 1

6

Installation

Fit this unit in locations where personnel access is restricted. Personnel with access must be trained in 
electrical safety and be familiar with procedures for avoiding electrical shock. 

Allow room in 19 inch rack for airflow around case.

Wiring

AC input

Unit must be connected to mains earth. 
Provide external protection, as 

there is no AC fusing inside unit

DC output

DC output wiring size should comply with wiring codes. 
We recommend 1.5mm up to 17Ah, 2.5mm for 40Ah. (keep wiring short)
Connection of the output is from terminal block,  E  --.
To install as earthed supply connect  or – to earth.
To install as a floating supply, connect two 10k/1/2W resistors external to the 
unit(see diagram). Fit one resistor from ground to + terminal and the other from 
ground to the – terminal. 

Batteries

Units are shipped without batteries. On commissioning, check that the fuse is 
removed and connect the batteries as follows: 
1/ connect RED wire to +ve terminal of battery 1. 
2/ connect BLACK wire to –ve terminal of battery 2. 
3/ Fit fuse.
Replacement of batteries follows the same procedure.

Remote 
monitoring

Remote wiring should be 0.75mm sq.
Wiring plugs into front of unit. The voltage-free contacts are clearly labelled. 

Connections for remote monitoring are given in the table below.

Maintenance

There is no routine maintenance required on the 7021 and 7025 series DC backup units. However, it is 
recommended that the battery capacity be verified yearly with a non-critical load, to ensure adequate 
performance during power outages.

WARNING

Take care when inserting batteries, as the batteries contain hazardous energy levels 

Do not allow battery terminals to connect in a short circuit.
