4200–045 R6.01 6 6/25/2015

Product Overview

WARNING:

High voltages exist inside the monitor system components and on the terminals.

Calibration must be performed only by technically qualified persons.

Observe electrical safety precautions when removing and installing equipment covers and when connecting leads and making adjustments.

4.6 Shipping, Storage, Normal Use Protection

Protect the system from physical impact during normal use or storage, and when necessary, provide protection during shipment between test sites.

5 Product Overview

The BDS–40 is a stand–alone monitor for UPS applications and is designed for use with UPS battery cabinets. What sets Albércorp. monitors apart from others is their ability to provide early warning of battery problems. The monitor checks the state of health of each cell by performing a proactive resistance test, a reliable predictor of battery performance. In addition, to indicate immediate battery health and monitor status of a given location, the system reports to a Central computer i.e. a generic PC, displaying status screens.

Using polling and data transfer algorithms, the Battery Monitor Data Manager software program allows the user to manage over 1000 monitor systems from a central PC. Data is stored in the computer’s database for later analysis and reporting. At any time, service personnel may call a battery location from the Central computer or a remote location, or directly connect to the monitor.

The Data Manager string and monitor status indicators make central battery monitoring easy.

Terms such as Discharging, Alarm, or Warning for string status or Active for monitor status quickly summarize events. Conditions reported to the Central computer display as a list, to identify trouble spots easily. The system also features several methods of automated reporting of alarm occurrences, such as contacting key personnel via a pager, email, or fax.

Flexibility was a major design consideration. Since the monitors are stand–alone units with no external computer needed, a primary protocol using MODBUS ASCII was selected to allow the user to incorporate the monitor into large–scale facility monitors. This allows third–party interfaces to access all the stand–alone features of the monitor, yet leaves the advanced features of the Data Manager remote communication software available for service personnel.

5.1 Normal Operating Mode

In normal mode, the system scans all parameters in one to five seconds, depending on the configuration. As readings are taken, they are compared to user–programmed alarm levels. The monitor can then call a Central computer and energize an alarm contact if a parameter exceeds a level. Front panel LEDs indicate scan and alarm status, and alarm events are stored in memory for future analysis. The BDS can be programmed for critical and maintenance alarms.

5.2 Discharge Mode

If a discharge is detected, the system goes into a data logging mode and stores battery voltages and discharge current into a discharge record.

4200–045 R6.01 7 6/25/2015

5.3 Resistance Test Mode

Product Overview

A battery resistance test may be performed at user–set intervals. The test is similar to that performed by the Albér Cellcorder. On a BDS–40, up to ten intertiers can be configured for this measurement.

5.4 BDS–40 Features

This section describes standard and optional BDS–40 features:

♦ Scans all pertinent battery parameters, such as overall voltage, cell voltages, current, and temperature.

♦ Performs a scheduled resistance test of all cells/jars and intertiers, and stores results for trending analysis.

♦ Auto detects discharges based on Overall Volts or Discharge Current, and stores data for real time or accelerated time playback.

♦ Signals if any parameter is outside user–programmed limits, energizes a Form C relay contact, and calls a Central computer to report the alarm condition.

♦ Communicates with an external computer via USB, RS–232, modem, and LAN.

5.4.1 Alarm Features

The monitor may be set to call the Central computer to report an alarm condition when detected automatically. The user can program high and low alarm levels on all voltage and temperature parameters, and a high alarm level for resistance. When any parameter goes outside the normal range, the monitor stores the event in memory, the Alarm LED lights, and an alarm relay with a

Form C contact energizes. The alarms may be set for latching or non–latching.

6.3 Location Consideration

Drawing BDS–5274–B1054 can help aid in consideration of location and placement of the system.

6.3.1 Check Service Access

Mount the system close to the battery, making sure it is accessible for servicing.

6.3.2 Maximum Wire And Cable Lengths

Install an insulated wire tray along the length of each battery tier, making sure it does not interfere with cell replacement. Install the sense leads, test current leads, 24VAC cable, and runs of wire, cable, and fiber optic cable have length limitations as follows:

♦ The maximum length for each sense lead, resistance test cable, and is 35 feet (≈10.7 meters).

CAUTION:

Do not wrap excess load cable into a coil. A tight coil will result in induction that can adversely affect equipment operation. Leave excess cable in loose, flat lengths.

6.3.3 Fiber Optic Cable And BDS–40 Communication Information

The BDS–40 communicates via fiber optic cable and the system forms a communication ring network.

NOTE:

4200–045 R6.01 19 6/25/2015

BEFORE SYSTEM INSTALLATION

The maximum length of standard plastic fiber optic cable that may be used is 250 feet or

76 meters. Proper fiber end termination; cleaving and polishing, is necessary to obtain this length.

Transmit TX/FO on the Controller connects to Receive RX/FO on a BASE/PLUS UNIT. Transmit on this base/plus unit connects to Receive on the next base/plus unit, and so on until Transmit on the last base/plus unit returns to Receive on the Controller.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Unlike the requirement for connecting base/plus units to battery strings, the string and address assignments on the nameplates do not determine the order in which base/plus units are connected within the fiber optic ring.

Look at the system drawing and the physical facility and determine how the fiber optic and power cables to the BASE/PLUS UNITs must be situated. When installing the fiber optic cable, do not bend the cable in a radius tighter than 35mm.

r35mm

70mm

Diagram Not To Scale

Figure 29. Minimum Bend Radius Of Fiber Optic Cable

NOTE:

Use KIT–3703–015 to terminate fiber optic cable correctly.

6.3.4 Sense Lead Harness Routing From BDS–40 To The Battery

The installer normally determines the wire routing.

WARNING:

Do not route the wires in the same conduit as other wires in the facility.

A Panduit slotted cable tray with cover or equivalent is normally used to distribute wires to the cells.

6.3.4.1 Conduit

Conduit can be used to route harnesses from the BDS components to the battery rack and to a wire tray to distribute the wires to each cell.

4200–045 R6.01 20 6/25/2015

Begin System Installation

6.3.4.2 Panduit

A Panduit slotted cable tray with cover or equivalent is normally used to distribute wires to the cells. Suggested slotted cable trays and covers are Panduit E1X1L66 with C1L66, or E5X5L66 with C5L66.

Before beginning installation, review NOTES on all Drawings that came with the system, but more specifically and provided here, NOTES from BDS–5274–B1054.

Figure 30. NOTES From Drawing BDS–5274–B1054

The following steps are required for system installation.

4200–045 R6.01 22 6/25/2015

Begin System Installation

7.1 Identify and Verify Cells, Markings, Load Steps, Configuration, etc.

1. Identify cell 1.

2. Identify and verify that all cells are marked correctly. Mark if necessary.

3. Verify wire routing, per drawing if provided; i.e. conduit, Panduit etc.

WARNING:

Never route the wires in the same conduit with other wires in the facility. Never run the wires parallel to the battery bus. Some inverters emit large signal spikes that could cause induction problems through the connection cables.

4. Identify load step connections.

5. Double check the configuration by referring to the drawings provided with the system.

WARNING:

Check the configuration before installation. If the wrong configuration is installed onto the battery, the unit could be permanently damaged.

7.2 Prepare All Batteries

7.2.1 Fit Tab Washers

Install tab washers on every positive post and on the last negative post. Every point of connection to the battery requires its own tab washer. Pay attention to detail and refer to BDS–

1179–A581 when installing the washers. Negative posts that are associated with an intertier, if intertier resistances are monitored, then the installer will need to install tab washers as well.

NOTE:

Remember, fit tab washers per drawings provided with the system and manual and place extra tab washers when applicable.

Installer of the Tab Washer should be aware of the tab's orientation to avoid possible interference with any battery jar's protective covers when the sense lead wire is attached.

7.2.2 Check Sense Lead Routing From BDS–40 To The Battery

The installer normally determines the harness/wire routing but double–checking measurements

lengths and labels is advised. Please refer to section 6.3.2 Maximum Wire And Cable Lengths on page 19 for details.

CAUTION:

Do not route the wires in the same conduit as other wires in the facility.

7.2.3 Sense Leads Connection

Voltage sense leads connect from each Plus/Base Unit to the individual cells. Each sense lead has been cut to the appropriate length, assemble it using the drawings sent with the system.

NOTE:

10K 2W 1% flameproof resistor that reduces the risk of a short circuit during installation and maintenance is preinstalled within the cable for safety.

Properly identify each sense lead to simplify the connection process. When connecting a sense lead to the same battery terminal as the load cable, the load cable must be closest to the cell post. Refer to drawing BDS–1179–A581.

7.2.3.1 Intertier Connections

Most battery installations have cables connecting groups of cells on different levels (tiers) within a battery string. Since these intertier cables normally have higher resistance than intercell connections, additional sense leads are used to monitor the resistance of these cables. Wires for one or two intertier connections are included within each sense lead with a maximum of 10 ten intertiers monitored per BDS Base or Plus.

7.2.4 Internal Resistance Load Lead Cable Connecting

The 18 GA wires of the load lead test cable connect to certain cells in the battery string. These cables come preassembled and do not need cutting or terminating.

Connect the first resistance test current cable to the positive post of the first cell. The last lead connects to the negative post of the last cell. Other connections depend on the battery configuration.

7.2.5 Discharge Current Sensor (Optional)

The BDS–40 can be used with a magnetic Current Transducer CT to measure discharge current. This item can be specified at time of order. When using a magnetic current transducer

CT, connect it to the Current connector on the rear of the unit. The CT provided depends on the application. Refer to BDS–1189–B985.
