PSU CUSTOMISATION\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BF562-3 can be customised to suit your exact requirements using a BF423 configurator \u0026amp; PC. Configurable parameters include float voltage temperature compensation, battery charge rate (mA), battery impedance and configurable Input\/Output settings. It is important to note changing the PSU's parameters in this way is outside the scope of EN54-4 and any changes must be tested by the responsible person for correct operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePSU STATUS LED (located on the PSU PCB)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 flash = Mains Failure. 2 flashes = Battery Voltage Low. 3 flashes = Battery Voltage Critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 flashes = Charger Failure. 5 flashes = Charger OK (Battery is either actively charging, or in float charge). 6 flashes = No Batteries Fitted (indicating DIP Switch 4 position).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7 flashes = Battery Resistance Fault (Level set by DIP Switch 2 position). 8 flashes = Output Over Voltage. BATTERY FAULT MONITORING\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BF562-3 complies with EN54-4\/A2 and therefore must monitor battery resistance. The fault threshold is directly related to the ability of the battery to deliver the rated current to the load. For example, batteries stored uncharged for long periods, during shipment and\/or distribution, degrade leading to increased internal resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf a degraded battery is fitted, a fault will be shown by the PSU as mandated by EN54-4\/A2. DATA PORT\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eData on the BF562-3's status can be extracted from the PSU's bi-directional data port. The data available includes thermistor measurements; battery terminal voltage; system voltage at load terminals; battery charge current; load current; battery impedance and ASCII text string status messages. Extracting this data requires additional equipment and permissions - contact C-TEC for details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVDS certified to EN54-4 (1997\/A2:2006).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for powering beam detectors, auto-dial communicators, aspirating smoke detectors, auto-open vent systems, auxiliary sounder systems or any other device performing a mandatory function of a fire alarm system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep discharge battery protection and EN54 compliant reporting of battery impedance faults.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes a single-pole volt-free changeover relay that switches for any fault condition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree LED indicators\u003c\/strong\u003e - supply present, general fault and auxiliary fault (for optional connection to third-party equipment).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLink selectable battery charging capacity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmentally-friendly charging circuit - dissipates just 0.35W compared to the industry norm of 2.55W.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied in a tough, durable metal box.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional 'caged' and 'PCB-only' versions available with exactly the same electronics (order code BF362-3\/E and BF362-3\/C respectively).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are matching this to an existing installation, work from the BF562-3 part number rather than the description.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"C-TEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57531679965557,"sku":"BF562-3","price":142.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/1216\/0612\/files\/BF562-3.jpg?v=1787933447","url":"https:\/\/wmestore.co.uk\/products\/c-tec-power-supply-bf562-3","provider":"WME","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
