Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS)
A 750VA Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) may be connected to AC-
powered systems in order to provide a continuous supply of AC-power.
If two cabinets are equipped, two 750VA UPSs or one 1.5KVA UPS can be
used.
Battery charging in AC-powered systems
During normal operation, the AC/DC power supply (NTAK04 or NTDK78)
provides a constant float voltage to the reserve batteries. This charger voltage
is not adjustable and will not provide equalization voltages. See Table 65.
Reserve time
Table 66 outlines the Ampere hours required (AHR) per cabinet during a
power failure. The reserve times are based on nominal load for a typical
installation.
