I recently installed a Power Sonic PS-12120L rechargeable sealed lead acid battery in my fire alarm system, but I’m experiencing some issues. The system seems to be intermittently losing power, even though the battery is fully charged. What could be the problem?
Intermittent power loss in a fire alarm system, despite a fully charged battery, can be attributed to a few potential issues. Firstly, ensure that the battery connections are securely tightened and free of corrosion. Loose or corroded connections can disrupt the flow of power.
Secondly, check the wiring between the battery and the fire alarm panel for any signs of damage or wear. Faulty wiring can lead to intermittent power loss.
Additionally, it’s essential to verify that the charging system is functioning correctly. Inspect the charger, charging circuit, and voltage regulator for any faults or malfunctions.
Lastly, consider the environmental conditions where the battery is installed. Extreme temperatures or humidity can affect battery performance. Ensure that the battery is placed in a suitable location within the recommended temperature range.
If these troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to replace the battery or seek assistance from a professional technician to diagnose any underlying problems.
