Part Number: 325739

Overview

The NBC24V1BLCWMN is a compact battery charger module designed to manage and charge a 24V / 7.2Ah lead-acid battery or two 12V / 7.2Ah batteries connected in series.
This system provides backup power for control electronics—particularly superheat drivers (Danfoss EKE1D / EKE1C)—in the event of a mains supply failure.


Functional Description

The charger ensures stable 27V DC output for maintaining charge and automatic float-mode operation once full capacity is reached.

Key Electrical Specifications

ParameterDescription
Input Power110–230 VAC, 50–60 Hz
Output Voltage27 VDC
Output Current0.4 A
Battery Type24 V / 7.2 Ah lead-acid
Status OutputOpen collector NPN for battery condition signalling

Typical Application

  • Chiller and rooftop units using Danfoss EXD316 and EKE1D/EKE1C drivers

  • Elevator rescue systems

  • Industrial backup and communication modules

Important:
If an EKE1D or EKE1C Superheat Driver fails, verify the battery charger output first before installing a replacement driver.
A failed or undercharged battery module can cause false driver fault codes or improper valve control.


Installation Procedure (Summary)

:

  1. Check the Battery Condition

    • Ensure batteries are physically intact and terminals are clean.

  2. Mount Components

    • Install the charger on the DIN rail within the electrical cabinet.

    • Secure the new battery near the existing battery pack.

  3. Wiring

    • Disconnect the original battery wiring.

    • Connect in series with the supplied bridge harness to achieve 24VDC (observe polarity).

    • Connect the charger in parallel across the full battery pack (see wiring diagram on page 3 of the manual).

    • Female fastons connect to the battery; male fastons connect to the EXD316 driver harness.

  4. Electrical Connection

    • Power the charger using 230 VAC supply (L, N, and Earth).

    • Output terminals connect to BAT + / BAT – and LOAD 24V as per schematic.

  5. Verification

    • Confirm 27VDC output across the battery terminals.

    • Check for correct LED indicator behaviour on the charger.

    • Ensure wiring integrity to all EXD drivers before commissioning.


System Diagram (Reference – Page 3)

  • The schematic shows the charger connected in parallel to four batteries.

  • The diagram labelled “After installation of the kit” indicates additional lines from NBC24V1BLC to the battery pack and EXD316 control driver.

Field Service Note

  • Battery voltage should be ≥ 24VDC before connecting to the EKE/EXD controllers.

  • If voltage drops below 21VDC, replace or recharge before recommissioning.

  • Always observe polarity to prevent board damage.

  • Use this check as the first diagnostic step before replacing EKE or EXD modules on chillers or rooftop units.
