CAUTION!
The Flextra Series of Enclosures supports a variety of optional features. For information on specific options and for
installation procedures, refer to the Novus FXM Power Supply manual (Alpha P/N 017-201-B0) and the manual for your
specific enclosure. These manuals are available at www.alpha.com or contact your Alpha representative. See the back
page for contact information.
• Always wear protective clothing, insulated gloves and eye protection (i.e. safety glasses or a face shield) whenever working with batteries.
• Always carry a supply of water, such as a water jug, to wash eyes or skin in the event of exposure to battery electrolyte.
• Do not allow live battery wires to contact the enclosure chassis. Shorting battery wires can result in a fire or possible explosion.

Battery Diagram
Always replace batteries with those of an identical type and rating. Never install old or untested batteries.
Avoid using uninsulated tools or other conductive materials when handling batteries or working inside the enclosure.
Remove all rings, watches and other jewelry before servicing batteries.
Spent or damaged batteries are environmentally unsafe. Always recycle used batteries. Refer to local codes for proper disposition of batteries.
• Always refer to the battery manufacturer’s recommendation for selecting correct “FLOAT” and “ACCEPT” charge voltages. Failure to do so can
damage the batteries.
• Verify the Power Supply’s battery charger “FLOAT” and “ACCEPT” charger voltage settings.
• Batteries are temperature sensitive. During extremely cold conditions, a battery’s charge acceptance is reduced and requires a higher charge
voltage; during extremely hot conditions, a battery’s charge acceptance is increased and requires a lower charge voltage. To compensate for changes
in temperature, the battery charger used in the power supply is temperature compensating.
• If the batteries appear to be overcharged or undercharged, first check for defective batteries and then verify the correct charger voltage settings.
• To ensure optimum performance, inspect batteries every three to six months for signs of cracking, leaking, or unusual swelling (note that some
swelling is normal).
• Check battery terminals and connecting wires. Clean battery terminal connectors periodically and retighten to approximately 50 inch-pounds. Spray
the terminals with an approved battery terminal coating such as NCP-2.
B
• Check battery voltages UNDER LOAD. Use a load tester if available. Differences between any battery in the set should not be greater than 0.3Vdc.
• Refer to the battery manufacturer’s recommendation for correct charger voltages and the power supply operation manual for corresponding charger
settings.
• Number the batteries (1, 2, 3, etc.) inside the enclosure for easy identification (refer to the appropriate enclosure installation guide).
• Establish and maintain a battery maintenance log.

Battery Installation Procedure:
1. Before loading the batteries into the trays, do the following:
• Route the battery cables from the power supply shelf, through the hole in the back left corner, to the first battery tray. Do not connect the battery
cable connector to the power supply at this time.
• Route the Inter-tier wires from tray 1 to tray 2 (See the battery diagrams on the next page for proper orientation).
2. Load the batteries into the trays. Secure the remote temperature sensor (RTS) to the inside of battery two with tape (See the battery diagrams).
3. Install the seismic hold-down bars.
4. Before connecting the inter-cell wires, connect the inter-tier wires and battery cables to battery terminals (See battery diagrams).
5. Connect the inter-cell wires. If provided, install the in-line fuse on battery two (See battery diagrams).
6. Close and lock the battery trays.
7. Using a multi-meter, verify correct battery voltage and polarity on battery cable connector before plugging it into the power supply.
