Answer:
Example:
A UPS system has one string of batteries, consisting of a quantity of 30 each, Northstar Model NSB12-475 and th
Step 1: Calculate the Actual Battery Load for a 40kW UPS Load
40kw load assuming a 90% inverter efficiency is actually 44.44kw battery load
40kw (actual ups load) DIVIDED BY .90 (90% inverter efficiency) = 44.44kw (actual load on the batteries)
Step 2: Calculate Watts Per Battery
Each battery will see 1481 watts
44.44kw (actual load on the batteries) DIVIDED BY 30 batteries = 1481 watts per battery.
Step 3: Calculate watts per Cell
Each cell of each battery will see 247 watts
1481 watts per battery DIVIDED BY 6 (cells per unit) = 247 watts
247 watts per cell
Step 4: Estimate Your Expected Run-Time
The specifications for this battery show that at 247 Watts per cell and 1.67V your run time is between 45 and 60
