Battery Accessories

Dynamic Battery Sales & Service (DBSS) has developed its TopTerm and SideTerm line of battery termination kits to improve the installation and safety of large valve regulated battery sets in telecommunication applications.

The U.S. National Electrical Code (NEC) generally requires that all conductors be protected from overcurrent (Article 240). This protection can be in the form of fuses or circuit breakers that are both listed for the application (especially dc voltage) and rated to interrupt both the nominal current and the possible fault current due to short circuits. The batteries used for backup in telecommunications can burn up the power cables in the event of a short circuit if an over current protection device is not installed.

DBSS fused terminal kits allow fusing of the battery leads at the battery where the fuse can provide the most protection. For those applications where the battery-mounted fuses are not applicable, the same basic fuse assembly is available in an enclosure for connecting to the power cables.

This system is often used for protection of battery cables in applications up to a 170-volts. The -BF800 series fuse holders accept Bussmann® TPL "Telpower" fuses of up to 800 amperes. The fuseholder is U.L. recognized as a disconnect switch for the interruption of load current by means of withdrawing the fuse carrier. A clear cover protects against circuit contact and requires a phillips screwdriver for access.

The new UBR-2 racks provide the finest solution for protecting your investment. AccuRack's new "V" Rib design creates fixed spacing between batteries that allows for uniform air-flow and makes removing batteries a breeze. The shelf guide ribs simplify the installation process and integral horizontal ribs provide superior shelf strength.

Racks come in one piece (monopost) or fully modular formats. Racks will come fully assembled, with all of the hardware required to install the racks. Battery retainer channels have replaceable threaded inserts, which eliminates the problem of fouled threads.

Racks are NEBS zone 4 approved and will accommodate all major manufacturer's batteries.

DBSS offers a variety of different sized battery racks for your application needs. Below you can find specification data sheets for all of the battery racks that we offer

Your solution for quick economical fixed medium weight shelving. Ready to bolt into most 19 or 23 inch equipment racks.
