Alpha Technologies, Inc. recently introduced the new Battery Integration Tray, an important step forward in lowering installation and ongoing maintenance costs for outside plant cable power systems. “Put simply, the Battery Integration Tray reduces installation and maintenance times,” said Mike Haass, Broadband Power Product Manager for Alpha, “not only during the initial set-up of a system, but over the system’s product lifetime.”
Designed to improve power system enclosure wire management and reduce clutter, the Battery Integration Tray comes with pre-wired voltage sense leads for transponder connections, modular 75A Anderson battery connectors and a preconfigured shelf for an AlphaGuard™ charge management system.
“With this tray, the batteries are individually wired and can be installed, removed or replaced easily,” said Haass, “avoiding the need for complicated battery cable kits or battery slide trays.”
The Battery Integration Tray is available as an option on all new Alpha PWE-3, PWE-6, UPE-3 and UPE-6 Enclosures. Retrofit options for existing Alpha enclosures are also available.
