Many of the parts called out in the Installation and Maintenance<br />

sections of this manual are available in maintenance kits. Kit<br />

number 60-2059-001, which supports the <strong>2150EX</strong> <strong>Module</strong>, contains<br />

O-rings for the connectors and desiccant cartridge, a hydrophobic<br />

filter, and a one-pound container of indicating silica gel<br />

desiccant. Kit number 60-2009-332, which supports the 2191EX<br />

Battery <strong>Module</strong>, contains O-rings for the connectors, gaskets for<br />

the battery doors, humidity indicators, and bags of desiccant. You<br />

can order the kits by calling Teledyne <strong>Isco</strong>’s Customer Service<br />

Department.<br />

5.3 2191EX Batteries When connected to a 2191EX battery module, the <strong>2150EX</strong> is<br />

powered by either two LTC2191EX 8 volt lithium battery packs or<br />

two SLA2191EX 8 volt lead-acid battery packs, which are stored in<br />

the 2191EX. These packs are sealed and explosion protected, so<br />

they can be safely removed and replaced in a potentially explosive<br />

atmosphere.<br />

WARNING<br />

To avoid overloading the fuses in the LTC2191EX lithium<br />

battery packs, disconnect the <strong>2150EX</strong> module(s) before<br />

installing or replacing the lithium battery packs. The<br />

SLA2191EX lead-acid battery packs do not contain fuses,<br />

and do not require that the <strong>2150EX</strong> module(s) be<br />

disconnected.<br />

The two types of battery packs differ in that the lead-acid batteries<br />

are rechargeable. Because they do not contain fuses, the<br />

lead-acid batteries do not require the same installation precautions<br />

as the lithium batteries.<br />

5.3.1 LTC2191EX Lithium<br />

Batteries<br />

Measuring Input Voltage<br />

The lithium battery packs should give you several months of<br />

service, depending upon your data storage intervals (see<br />

Table 1-5). Because the fuses in the battery packs can blow if<br />

overloaded, take care when installing the packs.<br />

Input voltage can be monitored while you are connected to the<br />

<strong>2150EX</strong> with <strong>Flow</strong>link. The <strong>2150EX</strong> also can record input voltage<br />

readings. Keep in mind that battery discharge rates vary widely<br />

depending on the your system’s operating environment.<br />

If the fuse in a lithium battery pack is overloaded, it will blow the<br />

fuse and the battery pack will need to be replaced. To avoid overloading<br />

the fuses, be sure to disconnect the <strong>2150EX</strong> module(s)<br />

before installing or replacing battery packs. If you suspect a<br />

blown fuse, or cannot connect to <strong>Flow</strong>link to check the input<br />

voltage, you can use a volt meter to measure the voltage. DO<br />

NOT remove the battery packs and apply a volt meter directly to<br />

the packs. For safety reasons, the packs have an internal voltage<br />

regulator that shuts the voltage off when the battery packs are<br />

not installed.<br />
