Battery backup system
Some models are equipped with a battery backup system. The system supplies the controller
and keyboard with power at power failure. This makes it possible to supervise the tempera-
tures in the unit during the power failure.
The battery backup system makes it possible to supervise the temperatures for 50 hours.
After a power failure and at the rst start up the battery needs to be recharged. To regain the
full capacity the battery will be reloading for 10 days
NOTE!
The battery for backup should be changed
every third year to secure 50 hours of back
up. Please put this change in the mainte-
nance schedule for every third year.
