Document Name: FACP BATTERY SIZE CALCULATION
Project: EXTENSION OF NEW SIH BUILDING
Location: YANBU
Battery Size (AH) = [Derating Factor] x [{Standby Current x standby time (H)} + {Alarm Current x Alarm time (min)/60}]
Equipment Tag No. = V22‐FACP‐002 Choose nearest battery size available from the following:
Minimum battery size, Amp/hrs 25.4 5AH, 7AH, 12AH, 18AH, 26AH, 55AH, 100AH
Total standby current, Amp. 0.86 If battery size is bigger then 100AH, split into 2 or 3
Total alarm current, Amp. 4.62 and add FCPS‐24S6E (6A)or FCPS‐24S8E (8A) as required.
No. of hours standby, hours 24 Hours
Alarm condition, minutes 5 Minutes
Battery Derating Factor 1.2
Note: Current ratings stated above should be validated with latest installation sheets
Total Battery Requirements = 1x 25.4 AH
Existing Battery size = 1x 55.0 AH
Therefore, exisitng FACP battery is sufficient to handle the additional fire alarm devices.
