Battery cables (+ and -) of 1.5 m in length and cross-section of 25 mm² allow correct operation with all
the recommended batteries.
The connections and crimping should be realized properly in order to generate as low resistance as
possible.
An additional battery fuse will be added about 1 to 2 mW.
3.1.21.1.4 Troubleshooting
If the power supply does not deliver voltage on the outputs,
Check mains presence on the mains terminal strip
Check the fuses
Check the voltage value on output terminals
The voltage on the battery cables must be identical to that of the load
Check that each 12 Vdc battery has a voltage greater than or equal to 11.5 Vdc
Repeat the measurement after having disconnected the load and the battery
Recheck the signalling of the indicator lights (see chapter 5)
If all the steps are validated, check the compatibility of your load
If the battery indicator light remains red,
Check if the battery voltage is between 14V and 30V
Check the battery voltage polarity
If the battery does not take over after a mains fault,
Check the voltage on the battery terminals
Check the battery fuse
Check the voltage on output terminals
If the indicator lights are not illuminated,
Check mains presence on the mains terminal strip
Check the battery connection
Check that the flat cable is properly connected
Check the voltage on output terminals
3.1.21.2 SONAES 12/150 A
The SONEAS 12/150 Battery Charger is EN54-4 certified. The maximum charging current is 12 A. The
battery charger is two rack units high, and has to be installed in a 19" rack. Maximum battery capacity 114
or 225 AH. The SONAES comes without batteries. To meet the secured power back-up system need,
determining the exact conditions and the amount of battery back-up for a system is much complex than
other applications. Public Address / Voice Alarm system does not draw a constant current. The standard
defines a standby time and an evacuation time. In this case, it is crucial to pick a battery back-up that shall
