Tools required
Installation of the backup box
The Emaldo® KeepON™ Backup box kit is IP66 rated and can be installed both
indoors and outdoors. Outdoor installation should be done under eaves
overhang.
Prior to drilling holes, it is imperative to exercise caution and avoid
potential interference with concealed water supply lines and electrical power
lines within the wall.
-
Step 1 o
Make sure the installation location allows for enough free space on all sides of the Emaldo® KeepON™ Backup box, except for the backside, which must be secured to the wall. -
Step 2Use a line marking template to determine drilling locations.
- Level the hole location with a leveling instrument.
- Mark the locations with a marker.
-
Step 3 • Use an electric drill to create installation hotels for 4x35mm screws at the marked points.
-
Step 4 • Align the box with the installation holes
- Secure the box to the wall using the screws.
Electrical connection
- Step 1
Connect the Main AC Connector to the Flex Port on the Emaldo® Power Core.
How Emaldo® KeepON’™’ Backup works
The Emaldo® Power Core can provide continuous AC backup power up to 10.800 W for AC Backup load connected to Flex output. The system can provide up to 21.600 W AC backup power to start the load. A large initial power is required when starting the load. If the ambient tempera- ture exceeds 45°C, the output of the energy storage system will decrease; if the ambient temperature exceeds 60°C, the system will be shut down.
Devices recommended for backup
Critical Electronics: These are the devices that are integral to your
daily life or work. For instance, your computer or laptop is likely crucial
for work or communication. Keeping them powered during outages ensures you can
continue working or stay connected to important communica- tions, which can be
vital in emergencies. Security Systems : Home security systems, including
cameras, alarms, and smart locks, are essential for protecting your property
and loved ones. Maintaining power to these systems ensures that your home
remains secure, even if the main power goes out. Medical Equipment: If you or
someone in your household relies on medical devices such as CPAP machines,
oxygen concentrators, or dialysis machines, continuous power is critical for
health and safety. Backup power ensures that these devices remain operational,
potentially prevent- ing life-threatening situations during power outages.
Refrigeration Appliances : Fridges and freezers are essential for
preserving perishable food and medications. During power outages, maintain-
ing power to these appliances prevents food spoilage and medication loss,
which can save money and prevent potential health hazards. Communication
Devices: Phones, routers, and modems are vital for staying connected to
emergency services, loved ones, and important information during outages.
Ensuring these devices remain powered allows you to make emergency calls,
access critical information, and stay informed about the situation.
Devices not recommended for backup
High-Power Consumption Appliances: Appliances like electric ovens, water
heaters, or air conditioners draw a significant amount of power. Connecting
these devices to backup power can quickly drain the battery, rendering it
ineffective for powering essential devices for an extended period.
Non-Essential Electronics: Devices such as televisions, gaming consoles,
and decorative lights are not critical for safety or essential functions
during power outages. While they may provide entertainment or comfort, they
should not be prioritized for backup power, as doing so may deplete limited
resources needed for essential devices. By prioritizing the connection of
critical devices to backup power and avoiding unnecessary energy consumption
from non-essential devices, you can ensure that your backup power supply is
effectively utilized during emergencies, providing power where it’s needed
most.
Example of AC backup load
- Lighting (compact fluorescent lamp or LED recommended)
- Refrigerator and freezer
- Small-sized plug-in appliances, such as cooking utensils, microwave ovens, televisions, radios, computers
Example of a high impact AC load
- Water pump
- Hot spring/Sauna
- Electric stove or oven
- Air-conditioner
- Hot Water heater
If the above impact load is connected to the backup load, please confirm that the total starting power does not exceed the maximum starting power of 21.600 W.
