Click on any toggle below to see a description of the available option:

Battery Bay Cooling

Battery bay cooling is managed by the EPIC Controller which controls all installed air conditioner units. This option will ensure that internal temperature will remain below 77°F / 25°C even if external ambient temperature should reach 120°F / 49°C. Multiple air conditioning units may be utilized depending on the size of the console. Each air conditioner will have its own feed breaker to allow for continued cooling if maintenance should be required on one of the units.
Battery bay temperature is automatically controlled by the EPIC Controller. The user does not need to set a thermostat. Temperature thresholds are pre-programed. The Hindle Health System will alarm if the internal temperature exceeds 77°F / 25°C. This will indicate that one of the air conditioners may not be operating properly.
Battery Bay Heating
Battery bay heating is managed by the EPIC Controller which controls all installed heaters. This option will ensure that internal temperature will remain above 73°F / 23°C even if external ambient temperature should reach -30°F / -34°C. Consoles that have a number of battery bays equipped with this option will have a heater in each battery bay. Battery bay temperature is automatically controlled by the EPIC Controller. The user does not need to set a thermostat. The Hindle Health System will also alarm if the internal temperature drops below 73°F / 23°C, indicating that the heater may not be operating properly.
The battery bay heating option is a fan-forced, up-flow electric air heater that is wall-mounted to the separation baffle in the lower left corner of the battery bay. The heater is tested to UL standards, factory rated at 120V, 208V, and dual field rated at 208V/240V, equipped with high-temperature safety shutoff, and capable of delivering 40-55 CFM.
Seismic Compliance

The seismic compliance option will allow you to meet seismic requirements using built-in adjustable battery bracing and anchoring per drawing JE5276-00.

The following standards will be met:

Console Lighting
The lighting option makes it easier to see anywhere inside the console. The lighting is a series of sealed LEDs that span the entire length of the console. The lighting option can be ordered with automatic door switches or a master light switch housed in the electrical bay of the console.
Spill Containment

The spill containment option allows for safe-keeping of battery acid if a spill should happen to occur. Each battery bay will have four (4) acid absorbing pillows on a tray located in the bottom of the console. These trays are designed to be easily removed in the event of a spill so that new pillows can be replaced.
GFI Outlet
The GFI outlet option allows the user to add multiple outlets to the electrical bay. This provides a source of power for tools, test equipment, or external device charging.
Leg Extension Kit
The 10” (254 mm) leg extension kit option allows for more ground clearance from the bottom of the console to the pad that the console is mounted on. The mounting layout of these extensions mimics the mounting design of the console so the same layout will work with or without. This option would be utilized in areas of increased snow accumulation or flooding. Assembly of the kit is required.
Crane Lifting Kit

The lifting eyes allow for transport or installation of the Epic series console using rigging connection points on the roof. The sling angle, as measured from the sling to the roof of the enclosure, should be no less than 60 degrees.
Do NOT lift, push, or relocate the EPIC Series Battery Cabinet with batteries of any type installed within the enclosure.
