Battery Backup
Battery backup should be used to supply emergency power when operation
of the power skylight system must be maintained in the event of a power
outage. (Please note: A battery back-up is not required to provide memory
back-up for the Sentry II system.)
Truth recommends the use of a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) as a
battery backup. They are widely available through a variety of retail and
commercial outlets and are primarily used to supply emergency backup for
computer equipment. (Truth Hardware is not a supplier of battery back-up
systems.)
To determine the proper VA rating for a UPS, take 50 watts and multiply by
the number of skylights to be backed up by a given UPS. Below is a list of
the manufacturers who produce uninterruptible power supplies which Truth
Hardware has approved as compatible with our power skylight systems.
