Eaton 9170+ Battery Charger Module (Models ASY-0652 and ASY-0675) User’s Guide 164201399 —Rev F www.eaton.com/powerquality 7Chapter 1 IntroductionThe optional Eaton 9170+ battery charger module is designed to provide additional current for faster rechargingof uninterruptible power system (UPS) battery modules in systems with many batteries.For systems with especially long runtime requirements, DIP switches on the rear panel of the battery chargermodule make it possible to install the module in a specially designed external battery cabinet (ASY-0739).The battery charger module is capable of providing up to 20 amperes of current for optimum charging, basedupon the condition and number of batteries in the system.Examples of improved system recharge times are shown in Table 1. Note that larger systems require at leastone (or more) battery charger modules to be able to recharge the larger number of battery modules.Physical FeaturesThe battery charger module is similar in appearance to a power module. The two primary differences are thefront label color (light-purple for the ASY-0652 and orange for the ASY-0675) and the current-limit DIP switch onthe rear panel of the module as shown in Figure 1. See “Setting DIP Switches” on page 12 for more informationon DIP switch functions.The module may be installed in either the UPS cabinet (6-, 9-, and 12-slot sizes) or a special 12-slot externalbattery cabinet.NOTE To realize maximum module functionality, install battery charger modules in the UPScabinet.Table 1.
