The expected life of a lead battery is approximately 3 years, but
several factors can affect the battery’s life time.
E.g.:
• Ambient temperature.
• Humidity.
• Long-time storage of the battery, before powering.
• If the battery has been completely discharged for a longer
period of time, it will never regain full capacity.
Battery status check
An automatic battery status check is carried out every 7 days. If
the battery test fails, a battery alarm will be emitted to an alarm
receiver. If so programmed, relay 2 will be activated when the
battery test has failed and can be reset by pressing the reset
button.
Battery test
If the reset button is pressed 3 times within 2 seconds, a battery
test will be performed. The battery test takes about 20 minutes. To
cancel the battery test, disconnect all power. If the battery is low,
the test will be cancelled and LED 2 and the battery alarm relay is
activated.
Mains power failure
Mains power failure alarm is sent to the alarm receiver (SLCC) after
15 minutes of mains power failure.
Testing the battery alarm:
Unplug the battery terminal during the battery status check. The
SafeLine 3000 will now emit a battery alarm and LED 2 and battery
alarm relay will be activated(if so programmed).
Changing the battery:
• Disconnect the 230V voltage supply.
• Change the battery (article number *Batt0,8A).
