total of eight (8) DC voltage inputs for these connections. An alarm is issued
when either battery block voltage or battery midpoint voltage is abnormal.
Refer to Figure 4-8 for connection details. Refer to the ACU+ User Instructions
(UM1M820BNA) and program the following parameters found in the EIB menu.
Battery Block Monitoring
Voltage Type: Set to “24 (Block 2)”. This selects the EIB to monitor up to
four (4) 24V battery strings with two (2) 12V blocks per string
BlockVDiff(12V): This menu item appears if “24 (Block 2)” is selected above.
Set to the alarm threshold for battery block monitoring per site requirements.
The ACU+ issues an alarm when any block voltage of any battery string has
an abnormal value. The alarm is issued when the difference between any
block voltage and a reference voltage is greater than the value of the block
voltage difference setting.
Block In-Use: Set to the number of 12V battery blocks being used.
Midpoint Monitoring
Voltage Type: Set to “Midpoint”. This selects the EIB to monitor the midpoint
voltage of up to eight (8) battery strings.
BlockVDiff(Mid): This menu item appears if “Midpoint” is selected above.
Set to the alarm threshold for battery midpoint monitoring per site
requirements. The ACU+ issues an alarm when any battery midpoint voltage
of any battery string has an abnormal value. The alarm is issued when the
difference between any battery midpoint voltage and a reference voltage is
greater than the value of the block voltage difference setting.
Block In-Use: Set to number of 12V battery blocks being used.
c) Programmable Relay Outputs: The EIB (ACU+ Controller Extended Interface
Board) provides five programmable alarm relays with Form-C contacts.
Note: The relays energize during an alarm condition, closing the contacts
between the C and NO terminals, and opening the contacts between the
C and NC terminals.
The default ACU+ configuration programs these relays as follows. Refer to the
ACU+ User Instructions (UM1M820BNA) for programming information.
Relay 9: Converter Critical Alarm (multiple converter fail alarms)
Relay 10: Converter Major Alarm (single converter fail alarm)
Relay 11: Rectifier Critical Alarm (multiple rectifier fail alarms)
Relay 12: High 2 Battery Temp Alarm
Relay 13: Battery Discharge Alarm
Temperature Probes: Temperature probes are connected to the optional EIB (ACU+
Controller Extended Interface Board) mounted inside the distribution cabinet. Refer to
“Temperature Probes” in the previous section.
