3.6.2 Battery Location Selection
Batteries generate some amount of hydrogen and oxygen at the end of charge, so the fresh air volume of the battery
installation environment must meet the EN50272-2001 requirements.
The ambient temperature is the main factor that affects the battery capacity and life. The normal operating temperature of
the battery is 20 °C. If the ambient temperature is higher than 20 °C, the battery life will be reduced. If it is lower than 20 °C,
the battery capacity will be reduced. In normal situation, the allowable ambient temperature for the battery is 15 °C to 25 °C.
The ambient temperature of the battery shall be maintained constant, and the battery shall be kept away from heat source
and air outlet.
Battery can be installed inside the specialized battery cabinet which shall be close to the UPS. If the battery is placed on
the raised floor, bracket shall be installed under the floor, just as for the UPS. If the battery adopts rack mounting or is
mounted far from the UPS with other installation mode, the battery circuit breaker shall be installed near the battery, and
the cabling distance shall be minimized.
3.6.3 Storage
If the UPS is not installed immediately, it must be stored with the original packaging in a room for protection against
excessive humidity and heat sources (see Table 12.2 on page 175). The battery needs to be stored in a dry and cool place
with good ventilation. The most suitable storage temperature ranges from 20 °C to 25 °C.
