The NightCharge system operates from the switched power supply and is available on Code Blue CB 1-d, CB 1-e, CB 1-s and CB 8 units. This option allows Code Blue units to be powered from a 120v AC switched power network.
Such networks are commonly used to supply power to outdoor lighting equipment only at night. During the day, NightCharge provides battery power to operate the unit. At night, NightCharge supplies power to the unit and recharges the batteries.
INPUT POWER
The NightCharge system requires 120v AC input to the Code Blue unit. All other switched power network voltages must be stepped down to 120v AC upstream from the Code Blue unit.
OUTPUT POWER
The NightCharge system provides a 12v DC supply to all components. The CB 1 area light however, is on only when the power network grid is on.
BATTERY CAPABILITY
The NightCharge system provides sufficient battery backup to run all the required components in the Code Blue units for 24 hours without interruption. At least 8 hours of daily continuous power from the switched network power grid is required to fully recharge the batteries. NightCharge will function with one incomplete recharging cycle but will not function with two consecutive incomplete recharging cycles. Two nights of recharge would be required to fully recharge the batteries after a miss in the recharge cycle.
During a typical day — power network on during part of the day and off during part of the day — the NightCharge system provides power for 23 hours of standby operation and at least 1 hour of activated operation.
