BP-8U Battery Pack
The BP-8U is an external battery pack, designed for use with the SEI DP and SEI PoweRack series of compact 48 Vdc telecom power supplies and the SEI DC-UPS series of 48Vdc critical power systems. The BP-8U may also be used with legacy Lucent/AT&T 1145 systems.
The BP-8Us microprocessor-based controller monitors charge status and automatically performs a periodic battery test to guarantee the holdover capability of the pack. Additional features include a Manual Battery Test Switch and LED indicators for Battery Charge Status and the Battery Test Status.
The BP-8U contains four 12 volt, 8 Amp-hour sealed lead acid batteries connected in series to provide a nominal 48 V dc. The internal battery pack is replaceable. A panel-mounted fuse protects the output.
The BP-8U can be used to add additional backup time or replace dead batteries. Up to three BP-8Us can be connected in parallel for a total capacity of 24 amp hours.
The BP-8U is mountable either on a wall or on 19" racks. Mounting brackets for 23" or 25" racks may be ordered as options.
