Product Overview

The Allen Bradley 80026-420-62-R Powerware 9130 Battery Assembly is a replacement battery assembly associated with the Powerware 9130 uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system. It belongs to the backup-power section of the UPS architecture and supports continued operation of connected equipment when the normal AC power source is interrupted.

Unlike an AC/DC power supply, the battery assembly does not primarily perform AC-to-DC conversion for the control cabinet. Its function is energy storage and backup power support. During normal operation, the UPS maintains the battery system in a charged condition. When an input-power interruption occurs, stored energy becomes available to the UPS inverter so that connected loads can continue receiving power for the available backup period.

For maintenance engineers, the 80026-420-62-R is particularly relevant when servicing an existing Powerware 9130 installation and restoring the battery portion of the UPS system.

Technical Specifications

Product Features

The 80026-420-62-R is intended for battery backup applications within the Powerware 9130 UPS platform.

Key characteristics include:

• Allen Bradley Powerware 9130 battery assembly
• Model 80026-420-62-R
• Used as part of a UPS backup-power system
• Provides stored electrical energy for backup operation
• Suitable for Powerware 9130 maintenance applications
• Supports continued UPS operation during utility-power interruptions
• Intended for replacement and servicing of the battery section
• Works together with the UPS charging and inverter circuits
• Requires correct installation within the applicable UPS configuration

Battery assemblies should be treated as system-specific service components. Before replacement, the UPS model, battery configuration, connectors, and installation arrangement should be verified.

Working Principle

The 80026-420-62-R operates as the stored-energy section of the Powerware 9130 UPS.

A simplified UPS power path can be represented as:

AC Utility Power → UPS Charger / Power Circuit → Battery Assembly → UPS Inverter → Protected Load

During normal operation, the UPS charging circuit maintains the battery assembly at the required state of charge. The stored electrical energy remains available for use if the incoming utility supply is interrupted.

When an input-power failure occurs, the UPS transfers its energy source to the battery system. The stored DC energy is then used by the UPS inverter to maintain power to the protected load.

This makes the battery assembly different from a conventional industrial power supply. It does not act as the primary power-conversion device for the automation cabinet; instead, it serves as the stored-energy source that allows the UPS to maintain power continuity.

Role in a UPS System

The 80026-420-62-R occupies the energy-storage layer of the Powerware 9130 UPS architecture.

A simplified arrangement is:

Utility Power → UPS → Battery Assembly → Inverter → Protected Equipment

The battery assembly works together with the UPS charging system, inverter, control electronics, and protected-load connections.

In an industrial environment, the UPS may support equipment such as:

• PLC controllers
• Industrial computers
• HMI systems
• Communication equipment
• Network devices
• Instrumentation
• Control-system interfaces
• Other critical electronic loads

Maintaining the battery section in suitable condition is therefore important when the UPS is used to protect equipment that cannot tolerate an unexpected power interruption.

Industrial Applications

The 80026-420-62-R is applicable to installations using the Powerware 9130 UPS platform.

The actual backup duration depends on the UPS configuration, battery condition, and connected load.

Installation and Maintenance

Battery replacement should be performed according to the UPS maintenance procedure and with attention to the electrical hazards associated with stored energy.

Before servicing the 80026-420-62-R, technicians should identify the UPS model and confirm that the replacement battery assembly matches the installed configuration.

Recommended checks include:

• Confirm the complete 80026-420-62-R model number.
• Verify the Powerware 9130 UPS configuration.
• Follow the applicable shutdown and isolation procedure.
• Inspect battery connectors and wiring.
• Check for damaged cables or terminals.
• Inspect the battery compartment before installation.
• Install the replacement assembly in the correct position.
• Ensure electrical connections are secure.
• Verify UPS battery status after installation.
• Allow the charging system to complete its required charging process.
• Perform an appropriate UPS battery test.
• Monitor the UPS for battery-related alarms.

Battery assemblies should not be treated as ordinary electronic modules. Appropriate safety procedures are required because the stored electrical energy can remain hazardous even when the normal AC supply has been disconnected.

Related Components

The 80026-420-62-R forms part of a larger Powerware 9130 UPS architecture.

The battery assembly should be evaluated together with the UPS charging and inverter sections when diagnosing backup-power problems.

Recommended Related Models

The 80026-420-62-R is specifically a battery assembly, so it should not be substituted with a conventional power supply simply because both products are associated with electrical power systems.

Technical FAQs

What is the Allen Bradley 80026-420-62-R used for?

The 80026-420-62-R is a Powerware 9130 Battery Assembly used as the stored-energy source within the UPS system.

What happens when utility power is interrupted?

When the normal input supply is interrupted, the UPS uses stored energy from the battery assembly to maintain power to the protected load through the UPS inverter.

When should the battery assembly be investigated during UPS maintenance?

It should be investigated when the UPS reports battery-related alarms, reduced backup performance, charging problems, or an inability to maintain the expected load during a power interruption.

What should be checked before replacing the 80026-420-62-R?

The Powerware 9130 configuration, complete battery assembly model, connectors, wiring, installation position, and applicable UPS maintenance procedure should be verified before replacement.
