Overview
The TS-BAT12 is an inline 24V battery device used to power TS industrial controllers and peripherals. The device accepts 24V DC input, and outputs 24V DC while powered via external power, and provides approximately 22V DC while operating on battery power, reducing voltage on a perceptible level indicating battery usage until power is restored or the battery is drained.
Usage
With 24 VDC connected, the is transparent to downstream devices. If 24 VDC is removed, the device will provide 23 VDC if fully charged, and degrade output voltage linearly to the battery fall-off until just before the battery cannot sustain output. This voltage drop communicates to all attached devices that power is presently sourced from battery and devices should respond accordingly (by monitoring inbound power, entering a reduced consumption mode, or shutting down completely until the power line returns to 24 VDC). The TS-BAT12 will draw approximately 200 mA during charging cycle until the internal 12 volt lead-acid battery is fully charged. The device will perform all necessary battery maintenance so long as it continues to be powered.
Storage
The TS-BAT12 should be stored in its OFF state fully charged for maximum shelf life. Exact shelf life depends on ambient temperature, colder temperatures provide longer shelf life. On average, the TS-BAT12 in storage will need to be recharged once yearly if stored in a controlled 20 degrees C environment. Higher temperatures reduce the shelf life of the device significantly: 40 degrees C will necessitate recharging to full capacity once every two months. Exceeding the device's shelf life without recharging can result in permanent reduction of the battery's maximum capacity. See the battery datasheet for more detailed information.
Connections
Power input and output reside on the screw terminal block. Pin 1 is the leftmost pin when looking at the front of the box.

LEDs
There are two status indicating LEDs on the TS-BAT12. The amber LED indicates charging status (on = charging, off = not charging), and the green LED indicates current device mode (on/off/sourcing from battery).
Green LED | Amber LED | Function |
---|---|---|
ON | OFF | Device is ON and providing power, battery is not charging.[1] |
ON | ON | Device is ON and providing power, battery is being charged. |
BLINKING | OFF | Device is ON and providing power from battery. |
OFF | OFF | Device is OFF and not receiving external power. |
- ↑ Normally, battery "not charging" means the battery is fully charged. The device will continue to "float charge" the battery as long as external power is provided.
Shutdown Button
Upon power loss, the TS-BAT12 will continue to provide power output until the battery is nearly exhausted. If power was disconnected on purpose, a non-metallic probe should be inserted into the SHDN hole to push the button within, readying the UPS device for storage. This button does nothing while the device is connected to external power.
