ELK Products ELK-SWS Battery Shelf
Overview
The ELK-SWS is a battery shelf designed to support backup power distribution in access control installations. It mounts within standard access control enclosures and provides organized battery storage and retention for systems requiring failsafe power during outages. The shelf addresses the integration challenge of fitting multiple battery cells into compact control cabinet layouts without creating cable routing hazards or thermal stress points.
Compatibility
The ELK-SWS integrates with ELK Products access control panel families and compatible third-party control systems using standard DIN rail or cabinet-mount configurations. Verify mounting footprint and clearance with your specific panel model before ordering. The shelf accommodates standard 12V backup batteries commonly used in commercial access control deployments.
Installation Notes
Mount the shelf securely to the interior wall or rail system of your access control enclosure using provided hardware. Ensure adequate ventilation around battery cells to prevent thermal buildup during charge cycles. Position the shelf to maintain safe distance from electrical terminals and avoid blocking air circulation within the cabinet. Use appropriately rated cable lugs and connectors when wiring batteries to the control panel — verify amperage ratings match your system's backup current draw.
