 Battery Calculation 

 

Here is the current consumption of the Premier EX8 panels in various conditions:- 
Control Panel 
Model  

Mains Fail, 
buzzer 
sounding 

Mains Fail, 
buzzer 
silenced 

Mains fail, 
panel in 
alarm 

Mains fail, 
panel in 2

nd

 

stage alarm 

Premier EX8 Panel 

160mA 

140mA 

200mA  

350mA(420pk)

Sample Calculation 

 

A Premier EX8 4 zone panel has the following items connected:- 

 

Zone 1: 8 x Optical detector 
Zone 2: 7 x Optical detector 
Zone 3: 3 x MCP, 9 x Optical, 1 x heat detector 
Zone 4: 1 x MCP, 10 x Optical, 3 x heat detector 
First stage Sounder CCT : 10 x Maxitone sounder 
First stage Sounder CCT: 1 x Megatone sounder

 

 

ITEM 

QUIESCENT 

ALARM 

PREMIER EX8 

160mA 

200mA (350 for 2

nd

 stage) 

MCP 0mA  40mA 
OPTICAL 100uA 

40mA 

HEAT 50uA  40mA 
MAXITONE SOUNDER 

0mA 

25mA 

Megatone Sounder 

0mA 

250mA 

 

To calculate the required battery backup required, we use the equation:- 

 

Battery Size (Standby time in Amp Hours) = 1.25 x [(T

ALM

 x I

ALM

) + (T

SBY

 x I

SBY

 )] 

 

Where: 
 

T

ALM 

= Maximum time in hours required for the alarm [½ hour is most common time]

   

 

 

I

ALM 

= Total Alarm Current in amps for all alarm devices connected to the alarm circuits 

 
 

T

SBY 

= Standby time in hours for the system after mains failure [normally 24, 48 or 72 hr] 

 
 

I

SBY 

= Quiescent current in amps of control panel in fault condition [because of mains failure]

 PLUS 

all 

detection zones.  

 

Consider a 1

st

 stage alarm 

 

I

ALM 

PREMIER EX8 ALM + 10 x MAXITONE 
ALARM + 1 x DETECTOR ALM + 4 x MCP QU 
+ 33 x OPT QU + 4 x HT QU

 

 
 

=0.2 + 10x 0.025 + 1x 0.040 + 4x0 + 33x0.0001 + 

4x0.00005  

 

=0.2+ 0.25 + 0.04 + 0 + 0.0033 + 0.0002 

 

=

0.494 Amps

 

 

I

SBY 

= PREMIER EX8 QU+10xMAXITONE QU + 7 x 

MCP QU + 34 x OPT QU + 4 x HT QU

 

=0.160+10x0+7x0+34x0.0001+4x0.00005 

 

=0.160 + 0 + 0 + 0.0034 + 0.0002 

 

=

0.1636 Amps

 

Therefore:- 
Battery size 

= 1.25 X ((0.5x 0.494)+(24x0.1636)) 

 

 

 

= 1.25 X (0.247 + 3.9264) 

 

 

 

= 1.25 x 4.1734 

   

5.22 Ah

 

 

So 7.0 Ah batteries will be suitable for this 
installation 

Consider a 2

nd

stage alarm

 

I

ALM 

as first stage, Plus 2

nd

 stage sounders, Plus Bottle

 

 
 

=

0.494 +250 +1A for 5 min max (say = 0 .167 

equivalent) 

 =0.911Amps

 

 

I

SBY 

= as first stage 

 

=

0.1636 Amps

 

Therefore:- 
Battery size 

= 1.25 X ((0.5x 0.911)+(24x0.1636)) 

 

 

 

= 1.25 X (0.4555 + 3.9264) 

 

 

 

= 1.25 x 4.3819 

   

5.477 Ah

 

 

So 7.0 Ah batteries will be suitable for this 
installation
