All parameters are specified at an input voltage of 24V, 10A output load, 25°C ambient and after a 5 minutes run-in time unless noted otherwise.
It is assumed that the input power source can deliver a sufficient output current.

9. Buer Time
The buer time depends on the capacity and performance of the battery as well as the load current. The diagram
below shows the typical buer times of the 24V output with the standard battery modules at 20°C.

The buer time is reduced if the 12V output is loaded. This can be calculated according to the following
example:
Example:
24V, 5A and 12V, 4A load
Step1:
Convert the 12V current to a virtual 22.3V level:
Ratio: 12V/22.3V= 0.54 12V, 4A output converted to 22.3V level: 0.54*4A=2.15A
Step 2: Add the computed current to the actual 24V current:
2.15A+ 5A = 7.15A
Step 3: Determine the buer time by using the standard buer time curve

The battery capacity is usually specied in amp-hours (Ah) for a 20h discharging event. The battery discharge is non-
linear (due to the battery chemistry). The higher the discharging current, the lower the appropriable battery capacity.
The magnitude of the reduction depends on the discharging cu rrent as well as on the type of battery. High current
battery types can have up to 50% longer buer times co mpared to regular batteries when batteries will be
discharged in less than 1 hour. High discharging currents do not necessarily mean high power losses as the
appropriable battery capacity is reduced with such currents. When the battery begins to recharge after a discharging
