IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety Admonishments Definitions
Definitions of the safety admonishments used in this document are listed under “Admonishments Used in this
Document” on page 4.
General Safety
DANGER! YOU MUST FOLLOW APPROVED SAFETY PROCEDURES.
Performing the following procedures may expose you to hazards. These procedures should be
performed by qualified technicians familiar with the hazards associated with this type of equipment.
These hazards may include shock, energy, and/or burns. To avoid these hazards:
a) The tasks should be performed in the order indicated.
b) Remove watches, rings, and other metal objects.
c) Prior to contacting any uninsulated surface or termination, use a voltmeter to verify that no voltage
or the expected voltage is present. Check for voltage with both AC and DC voltmeters prior to
making contact.
d) Wear eye protection.
e) Use certified and well maintained insulated tools. Use double insulated tools appropriately rated for
the work to be performed.
DC Voltages
DANGER! THIS SYSTEM CONTAINS BATTERIES
Although the DC voltage is not hazardously high, the battery can deliver large amounts of current.
Exercise extreme caution not to inadvertently contact or have any tool inadvertently contact a battery
terminal or exposed wire connected to a battery terminal. NEVER allow a metal object, such as a tool, to
contact more than one termination or battery terminal at a time, or to simultaneously contact a
termination or battery terminal and a grounded object. Even a momentary short circuit can cause
sparking, explosion, and injury.

Battery
Refer to the battery manufacturer documentation for specific battery safety instructions. The following are
general guidelines.
WARNING! Correct polarity must be observed when connecting battery leads.
WARNING! Special safety precautions are required for procedures involving handling, installing, and
servicing batteries. Observe all battery safety precautions in this manual and in the battery instruction
manual. These precautions should be followed implicitly at all times.
WARNING! A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. Servicing of
batteries should be performed or supervised only by properly trained and qualified personnel
knowledgeable about batteries and the required precautions.
The following precautions should be observed when working on batteries:
•Follow the recommended PPE requirements per the SDS for the battery to be used.
•Batteries are an energy source that can produce high amounts of electrical current.
•Remove watches, rings, and other metal objects.
•Eye protection should be worn to prevent injury from accidental electrical arcs.
•Use certified and well maintained insulated tools. Use double insulated tools appropriately rated for
the work to be performed. Ensure that wrenches with more than one working end have only one
end exposed.
•Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
•Verify that no current will flow when the battery is connected or disconnected by opening battery
disconnects (if available) or adjusting the system to match battery voltage.
•Risk of explosion if battery is replaced with an incorrect type or if polarity is reversed.
Recommended to replace batteries with the same manufacturer and type, or equivalent.
•Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions provided with the batteries. Do not dispose
of batteries in a fire. They may explode.
•Batteries may generate explosive gases during normal operation. Systems containing batteries
should never be installed in an airtight room or space. Only install in a ventilated environment.
•Batteries may contain sulfuric acid. If battery acid enters your eye, immediately flush your eye with
running cold water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediately. If battery acid
contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water.
•Do not open or mutilate batteries.
•ALWAYS FOLLOW THE BATTERY MANUFACTURER’S RECOMMENDATIONS AND SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS.

INTRODUCTION
Description
The NetSure™ 211 Series -48 VDC battery cabinet can be mounted in a 19” or 23” relay rack or mounted to a
wall. The battery cabinet contains one (1) 40 A battery disconnect circuit breaker and provides alarm leads
attached to the common contacts of the breaker.
Battery cabinets may be daisy chained as shown in Figure 7to increase the reserve time. However, a maximum
system current of 30 amps should be maintained regardless of the number of interconnected cabinets.
