inter-connection bus bars as described in the wiring section of this
manual. Reserve bus bars and proceed to next step of these
instructions before making battery connections.
4. Beginning with the bottom shelf, slide the batteries onto the shelf.
Each shelf should be completely filled with batteries. Un-even
distribution of batteries on a shelf or improper loading of batteries
causing the center of gravity to be shifted to one side or elevated
will adversely affect the seismic rating of the stand. Orient the
batteries so that the narrow end with battery posts are facing the
front of the stand (note positive post location in schematic for the
type of battery and wiring option chosen). Observe proper
handling instructions for the batteries.
5. Before proceeding, measure and record all battery voltages. Any
battery whose voltage does not agree with values as specified in its
product manual should be measure a second time and replaced if
found to be defective.
6. Install the battery retainer bars using the 1/4-20 hardware (flat
washer, lockwasher and bolt) provided with the battery stand.
Torque to 60 in-lbs.
7. The battery terminals are pre-coated with NO-OX-ID “A”
compound. If terminals appear dirty, clean surface areas of the
exposed terminal with a non-abrasive cloth and re-coat with
NO-OX-ID “A” (provided with batteries).
8. Using the hardware provided with the batteries, or the respective
adapter kit, connect the batteries into strings. Refer to
"Connections" in Section 5.
9. Each shelf of the battery stand is pre-wired for connection to the
string disconnect switch. Two wires marked with red bands are
intended for connection to the positive (+) post of the battery
string and the remaining two wires (black) are for connection to
the negative (-) post of the battery string. Remove the protective
insulation from the ends of the wires by cutting around the barrel
of the wires terminating lug. Connect wires to the respective
positive and negative posts of the battery string. Assemble all
hardware hand tight until all connections are made.
10. Torque battery connections to 60 inch pounds or as otherwise
specified in the batteries product manual.
