7.2 Startup Procedure
7.2.1 General:
After correct installation the BBS may be activated. The BBS
automatically switches to the standby mode any time a qualified external AC power
source is present. The 30ATR is also always de-energized when qualified external AC
power is present or when a fault in the inverter line is been detected. The 30ATR cannot
be defeated.
The inverter mode is second priority to the Standby mode and can only be activated
when there is no qualified external AC power source. The inverter must be left on and
the BBS will automatically and safely cycle back and forth between Standby and Inverter
modes.
7.2.2
Things to Check Before Turning the BBS to On:
•
Output and Input Breakers: Make sure the breakers are reset.
•
Temperature Compensated Cable: Make sure the temperature compensated
cable is connected as instructed in section 4.4.1, page 13 to ensure proper battery
charging.
7.2.3 Turning the Inverter “On” or “Off”:
To activate the inverter, set the
switch on the front of the BBS module to the “On” position, the green LED
“Inverter On”
will come on.
7.2.4
Manual Bypass Switch (MBPS):
After the inverter is switched to “
On
”, set
the manual bypass switch to
“BBS Mode”
.
To prevent current being withdrawn from the batteries that results in battery
damage the inverter unit must be switched “Off” and the batteries must be
disconnected from the inverter at the Anderson connector if the Manual Bypass
Switch is in the “Bypass” position.
7.2.5
Combined Manual Bypass Switch & 30-amp Automatic Transfer
Relay (CMBPS-30ATR):
After the inverter is switched to “
On
”, set the
manual bypass switch to
“BBS Mode”
.
To prevent current being withdrawn from the batteries that results in battery
damage the inverter unit must be switched “Off” and the batteries must be
disconnected from the inverter at the Anderson connector if the Manual Bypass
Switch is in the “Bypass Mode” position.
