Power Availability
Before connecting any external devices to the
control unit, you must make sure that the control
unit can provide sufficient current to power the
system during a mains failure for the time required
to meet Grade 2 PD6662 or EN50131-1. The
standard requires 12 hour standby, which includes
two periods of 15 mins in alarm.
The amount of current available from the control
unit depends on the battery fitted. The current taken
by the control unit PCB, communicator and keypads
is given in Technical Specifications on page 22.
For example: in an alarm system with an i-on16
control unit and two i-kp01 keypads the system
takes the following total quiescent current:
Device
Current
Control unit PCB
130mA
i-sd01 communicator (quiescent)
20mA
2 x i-kp01 at 30mA each
(backlights off)
60mA
Siren (quiescent)
25mA
Total
235mA
During an alarm, these figures become:
Device
Current
Control unit PCB
220mA
i-sd01 communicator
50mA
2 x i-kp01 at 30mA each
(backlights off)
60mA
Ext Siren & Strobe
400mA
Total
730mA
The total amp hours required =
(0.235A x 11.5h) + (0.730A x 0.5h) = 3.07Ah
A fully charged 7Ah battery can provide this amount
of charge.
In this example a 7Ah battery should exceed the
Grade 2 requirements.
Note: All current drawn from the Aux terminals (12V
and 14.4V) must be included in the overall
calculation.
