INSTALLATION
9. BATTERY REQUIREMENTS,
INSTALLATION & SERVICE
Battery sizing is a topic that is discussed and debated for a
number of reasons. The battery size, cold cranking amps (CCA),
starting cycle or deep cycle are all items for consideration. The
following will assist you to better understand the battery, the
codes and the purpose of the battery. It is extremely important
to follow all cautions and warnings per the battery manufacturer
concerning installation, service, maintenance and replacement
procedures.
Battery Council International (BCI) is an association of
battery industry companies whose members establish policy and
standards for the industry.
Battery Size is the physical dimensions of a battery. BCI assigns
letters and numbers for North American battery size types.
Cold cranking amps (CCA) is a rating that is used to define
the batteries ability to start an engine under low-temperature
conditions. BCI defines it as "the number of amps a lead-acid
battery at 0 degrees F can deliver for 30 seconds".
Starting (cranking) cycle battery is designed to deliver large
bursts of power for a short time, as needed to start an engine.
Starting batteries are intended to have a low depth of discharge
on each use.
Deep cycle battery is designed to continuously provide power
for long periods of time (for example in a trolling motor, auxiliary
power for a RV or traction power for a golf cart or other battery
electric vehicle).
Two (2) 12 volt Group U1 batteries with a minimum of
350 CCA each. Battery size: 7
(196mm L x 131mm W x 185mm H). This is based on testing
in extreme cold and heat -22° F (-30° C) to 104 ° F (40° C).
Purchase batteries locally. Install positive cable first.
This is a 24 volt system. Most large trucks, buses and even some
RV's use 24 Volt systems. While it is true that two batteries,
whether parallel (12 Volts), or in series (24 Volts) wired will
produce the same power, our 24 volt system makes it easier to
transfer power through higher voltages. With 24 Volts the engine
starter turns almost twice as fast as a 12 volt. This increased
starting speed enhances fuel delivery and combustion chamber
ignition in all weather conditions, especially in cold climate areas.
All 12 VDC batteries will lose a certain percentage of their charge
while in storage. It is important to test the battery voltage before
it is installed in the generator and taken to the job site. A fully
charged battery must test at 12.5 – 13.0 volts DC at 70 degrees

F. Also the correct batteries must have lug terminals to match
lug battery cables, for a bolt-together connection. All cautions
must be taken in accordance with the battery manufacturers
recommendations.
Check and confirm that the HSB on board controls are "ALL" in
the "OFF" position. This includes; circuit panel breaker, exercise
control and both LED controllers. Turn off utility power supply to
the ATS (automatic transfer switch), place ATS in "OFF" mode.
WARNING
!
The starting system is a 24-volt DC
!
system. The two 12-volt batteries
MUST be wired in series to achieve
the correct voltage. Damage will
result if the battery connections
are made in reverse, refer to owner
manual or installation manual for
typical installation. Dielectric grease
should be applied on battery posts
to aid in prevention of corrosion.
Cables supplied with the HSB.
1.
Place the batteries into the built in battery tray.
2.
Connect one of the black cables (included) from negative
(-) terminal of battery 1 to the positive (+) terminal of
battery 2.
3.
Connect the red cable (included) from the positive (+)
terminal of battery 1 to the engine starter.
4.
Connect the black cable (included) from negative (-)
terminal of battery 2 to the engine ground.
5.
Install red battery post covers.
6.
Dielectric grease should be applied on the battery posts to
aid in the prevention of corrosion.
7.
Inspect, clean or re-grease battery connections every one
to two months.
This HSB is equipped with an automatic float type battery trickle
charger powered by utility power, to maintain full battery power
while in standby (non-running) mode. This trickle charger will not
recharge a fully discharged or defective battery. When the HSB
is running (during use), the engine provides power to the battery
charger, charging the batteries to maintain full battery power.
When doing any work on the batteries always make sure the
HSB, ATS and transfer switch from utility are in the "OFF" position
or sparking may occur at the battery posts as the cables are
attached and cause an explosion.
