Battery
An optional lithium polymer 6,000mAh battery may
be used to provide a battery back-up service. Using a
battery ensures continuing power to controller and all
attached devices during power outages. Note though
that all system data is retained in non-volatile memory
indefi nitely even when no battery is fi tted.
Only the battery supplied by Grosvenor may be used
(Part No. SAT-ADV-BAT-S).
The battery operating time is heavily dependent on
loading (i.e. current drain by external readers or door
locks) but will typically be 45 minutes to 2 hours.
During battery operation, the 12V internal supply is
reduced to 11V and the maximum permissible total
current draw for all external sources is 1.5A.
The time required to charge the battery from depleted
to full capacity is dependent on available power (for
example, it may take longer from POE than from
a 5A supply), external current draw and product
temperature. It may take over 24 hours.
Battery Safety Notice
The Single Blade Controller battery electronics contain
multiple safety elements to protect against over-
charge/discharge, short-circuit, over-temperature etc.
However, the following warnings should be observed:
Only fi t the original battery module supplied by
Grosvenor Technology and use only in accordance
with this document.
Do not use module if battery appears deformed or
damaged.
Do not disassemble, crush, pierce or rupture the
battery.
Do not short circuit or reverse polarise the module
nor attempt to charge the battery except in the
controller.
Do not store at a temperature below -20°C (-4°F) or
above +60°C (+140°F).
Observe local regulations when disposing of the
Lithium-polymer battery.
Never dispose of the battery using heat or fi re.
Battery Service Life
A battery service life of 5 years is possible, although
this can be aff ected by a number of factors including: a
prolonged period of storage prior to use, the number
of discharge/charge cycles and the battery operating/
charging temperature.
