7.0 Module Assemblies

Module assembly design is arranged to provide the shortest


connections between modules using rigid lead-tin plated cop-

7.1 Module Assembly Identification

Modules are identified with a circular label located on one of


the module ends. Identification code is as follows:

8.1 Module Arrangements


6 CELL 5 TO 15 PLATE
Absolyte batteries may be either arranged vertically (50A and
90A for float applications, 50A only for cycling applications) or
horizontally (50A, 90A and 100A). Horizontal configurations
are preferred. Figures 6 and 7 are typical arrangements and
are not intended to represent total configuration possibilities.

Most batteries will consist of a combination of modules facto-


ry-connectorized in standard and reverse arrangements (refer
REVERSED ASSEMBLY to figure 5). This practice facilitates installation and permits
5B solid short connections between adjacent modules. Systems
employing pre-connectorized modules work best with an even
number of stacks each with an odd number of modules or the
reverse: odd number of stacks consisting of even numbers of
modules.

Certain applications requiring specific termination locations


may require that modules be shipped without connectors
installed. The wiring diagram enclosed with shipment will

Locate bottom I-beam supports and M10 serrated flange bolts

attached to the appropriate module assembly shown on the
layout/wiring diagram prior to removal from shipping pallet.
For modules with factory installed connectors, (+) positive and
(-) negative polarity labels are located by open terminals (see
Figure 8).

Secure I-beam support to a module channel as shown in


Figure 9, with access slots outward. Seismic shims are placed
between the channel and the nut and oriented so as to not
extend beyond the end of the channel. Torque hardware to 47

will be flush with the front module channel and approxi-
mately 13mm (.50") away from the back of the module.
The side of the I-beam will be approximately 10mm (.38")
away from the end of the channels.

NOTE: The use of leveling shims is required when assem-


bling any Absolyte system in order to meet seismic require-
ments. Failure to use the shims to level each module and to
fill spaces between tray channels during module assembly will
result in the assembly not meeting seismic certification
criteria.

Similarly install the remaining I-beam on the other side of the


module.

In order to stack modules in the horizontal position, refer to


Figures 11 thru 13 to perform the tip-over procedure. The

first. This procedure can be performed using a portable boom
crane or fork lift in conjunction with the lifting straps and lifting
shackles supplied.

plastic level together with plywood straight edge. This is
to insure proper alignment for module interconnection

9.2 Horizontal-Multiple Stacks

It is recommended that all of the first modules with bottom


supports attached (see Section 9.1.1) be placed in position
first. A chalk line floor mark should be used to assure all
stacks will be in a straight line. This applies for stacks end-to-
end or end-to-end and back-to-back. Also refer to Section
9.1.3, Items A through H (Item E for base module leveling).

Module ends should be butted together so that module side


channel ends meet (see Figure 18).

Refer to layout/wiring diagram for seismic shim requirements.

At this time stack tie plates should be installed (see


HANDLING AND STACKING HORIZONTAL MODULES Section 9.2.1). It will be necessary to temporarily

the I-beams.

See Figure 20A. Install tie plates and hardware. Torque to 47


Newton-meters (35 Ft-Lbs).

For stacks back-to-back, the two base modules are posi-


tioned to provide a minimum 4.5" spacing between the bot-
toms of the modules (not I-beam edges). See Figure 18A.

When all base modules are set in place, continue with stack-
ing of subsequent modules. Procedures for assembly of multi-
ple horizontal stacks are the same as outlined in section 9.1.
Also consult layout/wiring diagram. Each stack should be built
up in sequence to the same level until the top modules in all
Figure 16 Hardware Installation Sequence stacks are the last to be installed. The use of a line chord
attached to upper module corners of opposite end modules
as stacking progresses aids in alignment. See Figure 19.

9.2.1 Stack Tie Plates

To achieve maximum stack stability, especially where seis-


mic conditions may exist, as well as proper interfacing of
interstack connections, metal tie plates are provided. The
plates used on stacks end to end are 3" x 1" x 1/8" with two
9/16" holes. Use one tie plate at each interface to connect
the front and back module channels on only the base and
top modules of adjacent stacks. See Figures 20A and 20B.

Position plates on the front and back channels and secure


with hardware shown. Where stacks have different levels,
install plates on shorter stack top module and adjacent mod-
ule. Torque hardware to 47 Newton-meters (35 Ft-Lbs).

This completes the mechanical assembly of the battery sys-


tem.
