Altronix RE2R Rack Battery Enclosure
Overview
The Altronix RE2R is a 2U rack-mount battery enclosure designed to house and protect sealed lead-acid batteries, providing essential backup power for critical surveillance and access control systems. This unit is engineered for secure, organized installation within standard 19-inch server racks, ensuring continuous operation during power outages. The RE2R model specifically addresses the need for centralized battery management in environments where space is at a premium and reliable power continuity is non-negotiable.
Compatibility
This enclosure is designed to accommodate up to four (4) 12V sealed lead-acid batteries, commonly found in systems requiring extended runtime. It is compatible with Altronix power distribution and backup solutions that require external battery cabinets. Specific compatibility extends to Altronix rack-mount power supplies and chassis that utilize external battery inputs. Consult your Altronix power system documentation for exact battery capacity and configuration requirements.
Installation Notes
The RE2R requires standard 19-inch rack mounting hardware. Ensure adequate ventilation around the enclosure within the rack to prevent heat buildup, as batteries can generate heat during charging and discharge cycles. Batteries should be connected using appropriate gauge wiring (not included) to the designated terminals on the compatible Altronix power supply or charger. Torque specifications for battery terminals should follow battery manufacturer guidelines to ensure secure connections and prevent over-tightening.
