Battery Capacity Requirement
Battery (Ah) = (Standby Current Total x Discharge Time) + (Alarm Current Total x Alarm Time)
([STANDBY (A) ______ ] X [(24 Hours) ___ ]) + ([ALARM (B) ______ ] X [Alarm in Hr.] _____) = (C) ______Ah
Total Alarm Current must be
10
amperes or less. NAC Circuits must not exceed
6
amperes.
Battery Selection
Battery Size = Multiply (
C
) by 1.20 to derate battery.
See the following table for the recommended Mircom batteries for use with this panel.
BA-110 (12Ah) and BA-117 (18Ah) will fit into the BBX-1024DS.
To house BA-124 (26Ah) and BA-140 (42Ah) batteries a BC-160 Battery Cabinet is required.
Use of alternative batteries may result in failure of the panel to meet agency and regulatory requirements, and
may result in shortened battery life. Batteries should be tested regularly, and replaced at least every three
years. If the Battery Trouble indicator activates, obtain required service.
