Battery Calculation
Here are the current consumption of the Premier Elite panels in various
conditions:-
Control Panel Model
Mains Fail,
buzzer sounding
Mains Fail,
buzzer silenced
Mains fail,
panel in alarm
Premier Elite 4-8 Zone 50mA
31mA
163mA
Sample Calculation
A Premier Elite 4 zone panel has the following items connected:-
Zone 1: 2 x MCP, 8 x Optical, 2 x heat detector
Zone 2: 1 x MCP, 7 x Optical, 1 x heat detector
Zone 3: 3 x MCP, 9 x Optical, 1 x heat detector
Zone 4: 1 x MCP, 10 x Optical, 0 x heat detector
Sounder CCT 1: 10 x Maxitone sounder
Sounder CCT 2: 12 x Maxitone sounder

MCP 0mA 40mA
OPTICAL 100uA
40mA
HEAT 50uA 40mA
MAXITONE SOUNDER
0mA
25mA
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.
I
ALM
=
PREMIER ELITE ALM + 22 X MAXITONE ALARM + 1 X DETECTOR ALM + 7 X MCP QU + 33
X OPT QU + 4 x HT QU
=0.163 + 22x 0.025 + 1x 0.040 + 7x0 + 33x0.0001 + 4x0.00005
=0.163 + 0.55 + 0.04 + 0 + 0.0033 + 0.0002
=0.757
Amps
I
SBY
= PREMIER ELITE QU + 22 X MAXITONE QU + 7 X MCP QU + 34 X OPT QU + 4 x HT QU
=0.050 + 22x0 + 7x0 + 34x0.0001 + 4x0.00005
=0.050 + 0 + 0 + 0.0034 + 0.0002
=0.0536
Therefore:-
Battery size
= 1.25 X ((0.5 x 0.757) + (24 x 0. 0536))
= 1.25 X (0.3785 + 1.2864)
= 1.25 x 1.6649
=
2.08
Ah
So 2.2 Ah batteries will be suitable for this installation.
It is always best to calculate battery
requirements, but our general
guideline would be:-
1,2 or 4 zone – use 2 x 12V 2.2Ah
6 or 8 zone - use 2 x 12V 7.0Ah
