Eaton battery

NOTE: I WILL BE POSTING MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE BATTFERY SOON. PLEASE KEEP AN EYE FOR UPDATES. THIS ACTION HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO THE 17TH OF NOV.  

Q&A:

1. Do you have the serial # of each UPS?
   1. BN183FBB01
   2. BN192GAA09
   3. BN192GAA07
   4. BN192GAA12
   5. BN183FBB02
   6. BN192GAA06
   7. BN192GAA13
   8. BN192GAA14
2. Do you have a count of batteries in each cabinet?
   1. The original purchase contract stated 44 units of 9155-12-15_64Batt .  I don’t feel comfortable opening up the systems to check myself. (N0042119P0259)

3.  Is there a maintenance bypass on each UPS?  If not, are shutdowns acceptable, or are temps needed? There are bypasses but we would likely do a partial shutdown of our equipment as an additional safeguard to protect sensitive components.

4.  Is there a loading dock with storage for existing batteries for a few days while we wait for a waste vendor to pick up and recycle batteries? There is a loading dock

5.  Are there any special clearances/procedures required to access the site? The technicians should be US citizens and will need to get visitor access. 

6.  RFG mentions delivery date of 2/1/2024.  If Eaton cannot provide new batteries by then, will an extension of time be granted? The hard deadline for this job is 6/1/2024.  We would prefer to have the batteries repaired before spring storms start popping up. 

7.  Any photos of units would be helpful. (SEE ATTACHMENTS) 

The setup is per company spec and is easily accessible to maintain.
