1 Introduction

Important!
!

The CE and UL declaration of conformity for the product will be fulfilled if the setup and
cabling is undertaken in accordance with the specification in the manual and the docu-
mentation listed there, such as mounting instructions, cable lists etc. Where necessary,
project-specific documentation should be taken into account.
Deviations from the specifications or independent changes during setup, such as use of
cable types with lower screening values, for example, can lead to the CE requirements
being violated. In such cases the CE declaration of conformity is invalidated and the
responsibility passes to the person who has caused the deviations.

The applying technical standards are listed in the “Guide to Documentation” (Siemens
document number A30808-X3247-K52-*-7635).

integral battery back-up system must be guarantee a continuous ventilation, to keep the
critical hydrogen concentration below 4% vol..
The cross section of the air inlet / outlet must be calculated in accordance to
IEC/EN50272-2.
Prior to the commencement of installation, the construction of the room in which the
Service1A Rack is to be housed must be complete and the room in good condition and
dry heaters, if necessary, should be put up in the room.
The rack is intended to be installed in an area with restricted access.
– The installing room should be free from possible water ingress, frost and excessive
insect attacks.
– Doors and windows must already have been installed and must be lockable.
– Openings in wall or ceiling of floor - if required - must be complete.
– The floor coverings must have been installed.
– Room lighting and wall outlets must have been installed.
– Heating or air-conditioning systems should be ready for operation.
– Walls and ceilings should have been painted. The room must be clean.
– optional cable runways must be installed first.
– All installation works of 3 phase 230 V AC power supply, including a false current
protection switch must be finished.
To prevent subsequent accumulation of dust and dirt, the parts and equipment units to
be installed should be unpacked outside the room (if possible).

2.3 Construction View of the Service1A Rack

The equipment is housed in a rack with the dimensions of 1600 mm x 600 mm x 450 mm
(H x W x D).
It can be equipped with up to 6 AC/DC converters and up to 2 trays of backup batteries,
that guarantees continuous operation for a certain time in case of mains breakdown or
AC/DC failure.
In addition, the rack provides a free space of 6 height units (HU) for the installation of
link equipment. Dependend on the type of link equipment (can be microwave or NTPM),
mounting kits for 2 HU have to be installed for microwave indoor units (max. 3 kits) or
3 HU for NTPM modules (max. 2 kits). Without battery trays, 12 HUs for link equipment
are available.

2.4 Equipment Delivery

The rack is shipped vertically mounted on a wooden pallet, protected with PE-foil (or
horizontally in case of transportation by airplane in a wooden crate).
The crate dimensions are 1800 mm x 800 mm x 650 mm (HxWxD).
The Service1A Rack will be delivered without backup batteries (weight aspects).
An additional crate is used for transporting of the batteries.
4 fastening claws which fixing the rack-feet to the pallet should be used for later floor-
fixing. The claws are also provided in the case of transportation in a crate.

The following information is given for identification of delivery:

– customer order number
– serial number of the rack or other supplied equipment
– destination
– gross and net weight
– overall dimensions (cm)
– symbol or imprint to identify the "Top" and the "Bottom"
– delivery papers
For transportation of the crate / pallet from the unloading area into the construction room
use handling aids (for example: fork-lift truck, goods elevator), a second person is
needed for help.

2.4.1 Preliminary Checks

A ShockwatchTM -label and a TIP (N) TELLTM-label are fixed at the rack surface in the
case of pallet transportation or at the crate for indication of fallover or strong shocks
during the transport from the factory to the site.
If the TIP (N) TELLTM-label arrow is blue, the package has been on the side or tipped
over in transit. If the ShockwatchTM -label is red, the package has been shocked during
transport.
Check that the crate or the pallet is not damaged. In case of evident damage due to
transport, unpack the equipment in presence of an insurance company representative
and promptly claim any damage and inform the shipper for specifying the damage.
Check whether that the package is actually addressed to the site and complete.

3 External Cable Connections

3.1 Overview
This chapter provides the information required for installing the cables between the
Service1A Rack, the power distribution panel and the telecommunication equipment on
site.
The rack cannot function without the following cable connections:
– power distribution panel of 230 VAC, 3-phase supply -> AC mains 5 pole terminal
block 5 pole of the MSU (location: top of rack)
– ground bar -> ground bolt (location: top of rack)
– ground bolt - ground connector DC supplied telecommunication equipment
– -48 VDC power output terminals -> DC power input of telecommunication equipment
optional:
– alarm collection terminal ACTC (location: AD-panel)- alarm collection terminal of the
telecommunication equipment
– if installed: link equipment (can be NTPM or microwave)- telecommunication equip-
ment
– if installed: link equipment - directly to the PSTN (NTPM will be used) or in case of
microwave equipment to the microwave outdoor units
For the AC supply cable connection, the top cover has to be removed. For opening and
removal refer to section 2.4.4 of this manual.

Service 1A Rack External Cable Connections

Some additional hints for the installation of external cabling:

– The first cable that has to be installed is the ground cable between the main ground
bolt M8 on the top of the rack and the nearest ground bar on site.
– The second installation step is to connect the ground bolt M8 of the Service1A Rack
with the ground connector of the telecommunication equipment
– After that all other cables e.g. AC mains, DC cables or the alarm lines can be
installed.
– If microwave antenna cables are fed through the cable feeding module located at
the top of the rack front, the outer isolation has to be stripped back, so that a proper
ground contact of the outer conductorto the metal mesh of the rubber profiles is
guaranteed.
– Cut also back the outer insulation of all other screened cables in this area.

6.2 Checks and Replacement of Modules

6.2.1 FAN Unit

To replace an internal FAN the locking levers are operated and the FAN is gently pulled
forward.
The metal face plate is the top of the fan unit.

WARNING
!

If power is connected to the system and an internal FAN has to be replaced, first pull it
out to a slight extent so the FAN is disconnected from power. Wait with pulling it out com-
pletely until the fan blades have stopped rotating to avoid injury.

With regard to acceptable failure rates, it is recommended to replace a FAN when its
total operating time exceeds 9 years at an average FAN temperature of 40°C.
Under extreme environmental stress with FANs exposed to an average temperature of
70°C, this time period reduces to 2 1/2 years.
Mark the replaced FAN unit as defective.

6.2.2 AC/DC Converter

Investigate the defective AC/DC converter first by checking the output supply current for
all AC/DC modules inside the Service1A Rack.
This can be done by measuring the indication voltage at the test connector of the
module.
The relationship between the indication voltage and the output current is 100 mV/A.
If no output current is present, the converter module has to be replaced. Select a module
that is compatible to that module which is being replaced.
Loose the fixing screws at the front of the affected AC/DC module and pull it out. Mark
the module as defective.
Plug in the new module and tighten the fixing screws.

6.2.3 Batteries
The AC/DC system supports battery capacity tests at the DCBCTRL (see Figure 45).
It is recommended to make an annual quick battery back-up test by cutting of the base
station from AC power supply. This is to make sure that the batteries are still intact
(quick check only) and the LVD Relais is still making a good electrical contact.
It is recommended to check annually whether any battery nuts have loosened and to re-
tighten them (if necessary) to the recommended torque values given under see section
4.2
Battery service life, operating temperature:
According to EUROBAT, the end of battery service life is reached when the current
battery capacity value has fallen below 80% of nominal battery capacity.
An increase of 10°C in average battery operating temperature effects a 50% reduction
in battery service life.

A50016-G5100-A461-01-7631 Id:0900d805800a0a3f 45
Maintenance Service 1A Rack

That means, that a battery service life of 10 years (20°C), declared by the manufacturer,
the service life will only be 5 years if the average battery operating temperature is
actually about 30°C.
Battery service life is also limited by discharge cycles:
Oerlikon 12CP80, Oerlikon 12C@2000 (1h,100%) " 300 times;
Hawker 12V92F (1h,100%) " 300 times
For replacement of battery sets proceed in accordance to section 4.2.

6.2.4 Check of the Ground Contact

It is recommended to check the connection between the grounding cable (see section
3.2) and the grounding bar of the earth electrode (system) every year (i.e. for corrosion
and loose nuts/screws).
