RISKS OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
When the supply is provided by the Battery module, the voltage is not regulated
and can vary between 19 VDC and 28 VDC. It is suitable to check carefully that
the supplied circuits can support a voltage tension between these 2 values.
The use of batteries other than those included in the Battery modules
ABL 8BPK24A•• is not possible (risk of battery deterioration).
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.
The Phaseo Battery module range proposes 3 different battery capacities according
to the backup time and the current required for the application desired. See Choice of components, p. 15.
Note: The Phaseo battery modules do not require maintenance. In the case of
failure, please replace the module set.

Overview
Presentation of Battery control modules ABL 8BBU24•00
IntroductionThe battery Control modules ABL 8BBU24•00 allowing the following functions :
Optimize the use and life of the batteries:
charge if necessary and as a function of the ambient temperature,
shutdown of the Battery module before the deep discharge
maintenance charge to compensate for self-discharge,
measurement of Battery module ageing
Automatic switch without interruption between power supply and battery:
adjustable operating time on the battery (holding time),
diagnostic of the system state.
The range of the Phaseo battery Control module consists of 2 modules according to
the maximum usage current (20 A or 40 A). See Choice of components, p. 15.
(1)
Important: When the Battery control module ABL 8BBU24•00 is not supplied by
the power supply ABL 8RP••/ABL 8WP••, the Battery module ABL 8BPK24A••
continues to provide a residual current necessary for the power supply of the module
electronics.
In the case of prolonged absence of the power supply voltage in the IN+ and INterminals, it is advisable to unplug the Battery module by removing its fuse(s) in
order to avoid deep discharge.
When this power-off is expected (machine transport or requested power-off), it is
also recommended to turn on the entire control module and Battery module until the
batteries are charged completely (battery icon OK on the display).
It is also possible to insert a contactor between the Battery module and the Battery
control module in order to execute an automatic cut-off (see Wiring of an auto power off circuit of the Battery Module, p. 35).

According to the necessary holding current and desired backup time, the table below
indicates the associations of appropriate modules.
Note: This table is based on the characteristics of new Battery module. At the end
of life, once the autonomy of a battery is capable of being divided by 2, it is suitable
to take this into account when choosing the module(s) by multiplying the holding
time by 2 if desired to guarantee the holding time during the life of the modules. For
backup times greater than 5 hours, refer to the table on the following page.

Preliminaries
RISKS OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
The input terminals of the Battery control module must, by obligation, be connected
to the output terminals of the ABL8 supply or other Phaseo ABL8 modules.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.
RISKS OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Consider the tightening torque indicated in this document to avoid hazardous
terminal block warm-up.
Do not allow liquids or foreign bodies to penetrate inside the product.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.
Read carefully the regulations and recommendation of the following wiring :
Check that the operating and environmental conditions are well situated in the
specified zones, see Characteristics, p. 69.
As a function of the charge, a downstream protection circuit may be required. The
selectivity module ABL 8PRP24100 fulfils this role.
Use wire end ferrules for the wires.
Use the wires in the appropriate section in order to consider the demands in
current and voltage :
Connect the junction of the functional earth by means of a 10 mm² (AWG 6)
section conductor.

At the end of this first setup, the control module starts the charge of the Battery
module(s). Since the charge rate is not measurable, the screen is orange until the
end of the charge. After 72 H maximum of powering on of the power supply set and
control module, the screen switches to green and the charge percentage of the
Battery modules is displayed (see Diagnostic, p. 51).

threshold
The setting defines the desired backup time. Two functions are proposed:
Timed function: back up from 10 s to 72h adjustable by 10 s steps
Max function: backup until power supply feedback or until the discharge of the
Battery module(s) (shut-off when the voltage in the Battery module terminals
reach 21 V, before the deep discharge threshold).

If the power supply voltage decreases below this threshold, the control module
switches to the backup mode and the voltage delivered in the OUT+ and OUToriginates from the Battery module. In the current versions, this threshold is fixed at
21 V and is non-adjustable.
Important: To allow transition from a backup mode to the Power Supply mode, the
output voltage of the power supply must be at least greater than 1 V at the switching
threshold.

module to calculate the voltage at the Battery module terminals.
The table below indicates the choice of possible lengths:

temperature
The setting defines the temperature of the Battery module(s). This setting
°C
is used by the Battery control module in order to:
Calculate the charge rate of the Battery module(s),
Adapt the end of charge voltage in order to optimize the life of the Battery
module(s).
The possible temperature setup modes are related to the Battery module assembly
in comparison to the enclosure containing the Battery control module (see Mounting of the Battery module, p. 22):
ModeMounting
DifferentialBattery module inside the enclosure (the temperatures within the
proximity of the Battery modules and Battery control module develop
in same proportions)
AbsoluteBattery module outside the enclosure
Description of the two available usage modes:
Differential:
The control module has a built-in sensor measuring the temperature in its
environment.
The user obtains the temperature difference estimated between the control
module and the Battery module such as:
ΔT = T Battery control module - T Battery module.
Note : The temperatures may be measured near the modules (1 cm of housing)
after the temperature has been stabilized inside the enclosure, where the
modules are mounted and then reported in the menu.
The charge voltage is adjusted automatically as a function of the temperature
measured by the control module.
Absolute:
The user enters directly the Battery module temperature.
There is no automatic charge voltage correction.

Operation timing diagrams
Output behaviour in the case of overload or short-circuit
OverviewIt is possible to execute backup solutions with power supplies, of which the rated
current is less than that of the Battery control modules.
The output behaviour of the Battery control module, thus, depends on the power
supply association/module, it may be different according to the operating modes
(power supply or backup).
The protection against the overcurrents and short-circuits is according to the
ensured case either by the power supply or by the control module.
As a consequence, the junction section in the control module output must take into
account the rated current of this module (20 A or 40 A) and not only the rated power
supply current.

The Battery module test allows the inspection of the battery module ageing (not to
be confused with the charge level).
Note: This test is also carried out utomatically twice per month.
When this test is issued (the total test duration: approximately 48H from a charged
battery pack and under the condition that the module does not pass to the backup
mode during the test):
if the Battery module has not lost its capacity, no message is shown,
if the capacity of the Battery module has started to decrease (the mode is around
50% of its life), the screen background turns orange in the Power Supply mode,
if the capacity of the module is less than 80%, which corresponds to around 50%
of autonomy, the default screen is displayed and the 21/22 alarm contact
is switched on. The module(s) must be replaced as quickly as possible. While
waiting the Battery module(s) replacement, the alarm can be inhibited using the
Enabling/disabling menu .
Display the On-board software version.
The checksum allows the very rapid
inspection that all configuration
parameters are correct or to carry out
configuration comparisons among several
modules.

Maintenance
Battery modules replacement
Replacement A Battery module is considered to reach its end of life when it has lost 50% of its
rated capacity.
The batteries contained in the Battery modules are irreplaceable. When the
batteries have reached their end of life, it is necessary to change the Battery module
in its set.
When several Battery modules are parallel connected, these must be replaced at
the same time.
After the exchange of the Battery modules, it is suitable to reinitialize the ageing test
(see SERVICE menu, p. 64).
MaintenanceThe Battery modules contain lead sealed batteries. This battery type does not
require maintenance.
WARNING
RISKS OF INJURY
The batteries contained in the Battery modules have no maintenance and must,
under no circumstances, be open.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage.

Capacity:
Current provided by a battery for a determined time and completely being
charged.
The capacity provided in the catalog is the new value, expressed in Ah.
Example: In theory, a 12Ah battery will be capable of providing a 0.6A current for
20H.
The capacity diminishes with the battery age.
Charge rate:
Proportion of the capacity available at time t.
Expressed in % of the total capacity.
The charge rate diminishes when the battery provides energy.

Battery general information
Lead Battery
Generalities
Charge:
The performances and battery life depend on the charge efficiency.
The end of charge voltage is particularly important, it must be adapted according
to the ambient temperature.
Discharge:
The time during which the battery will be able to provide energy depends on its
capacity expressed in Ah.
The capacity also depends on the temperature.
The voltage at the battery terminals must never be less than a value termed the
deep discharge voltage.
Even when not being used, the battery is discharged at about 3% per month at
20°C.
Life:
About 5 years at 20°C.
About 15 months at 40°C.
A battery is considered to reach its end of life when it has lost 20% of its capacity,
which corresponds to a loss of 50% of the autonomy time for rapid discharges.

There is no temperature sensor in the battery.
In the catalog, the operating temperature range indicated is from 0°C to +40°C for
less than 0°C, the liquid crystal display is no longer functionnal. The set operation
is, however, protected up to -20°C (with a shorter backup time, see evolution of the
battery capacity as a function of the temperature).
