Edwards BC-1R Battery Cabinet P/N:1100-0654

The Edwards BC-1R Battery Cabinet P/N: 1100-0654 is a dedicated enclosure for housing standby batteries used with compatible fire alarm and life-safety equipment. Available product records identify 1100-0654 as the BC-1R red surface-mount battery cabinet.

The cabinet allows standby batteries to be located separately from the main fire alarm control panel when additional battery capacity or a separate battery enclosure is required.

Product Functions

• Provides external standby battery storage
• Designed for fire alarm systems
• Red cabinet configuration
• Surface-mount enclosure
• Protects batteries and associated wiring
• Allows batteries to be located separately from the control panel
• Supports compatible fire alarm standby-power applications
• Functions as a passive battery enclosure
• Requires no independent device address
• Contains no fire alarm control electronics

External Battery Storage

The BC-1R provides a dedicated location for fire alarm standby batteries.

External battery cabinets are useful when the required battery capacity cannot be accommodated inside the main fire alarm control panel enclosure or when the system design requires the batteries to be located separately.

The batteries remain connected to the associated fire alarm power equipment, which handles charging, supervision, and transfer to standby power.

Red Surface-Mount Configuration

The specific product identification is:

Model: BC-1R

Part Number: 1100-0654

Product Type: Battery Cabinet

Color: Red

Mounting: Surface

Product listings consistently identify part number 1100-0654 with the BC-1R red surface battery cabinet.

Fire Alarm Standby Power

The BC-1R itself does not generate backup power. Instead, it houses the batteries that supply standby power to compatible fire alarm equipment during an AC power failure.

Battery charging, monitoring, supervision, and low-battery detection are handled by the connected fire alarm control panel or power supply.

The required battery capacity depends on the system’s standby current, alarm current, required operating duration, and applicable system design.

Passive Enclosure

Because the BC-1R is a mechanical battery enclosure, it has no independent:

Operating Voltage: Not applicable

Standby Current: Not applicable

Alarm Current: Not applicable

SLC Address: Not applicable

Network Address: Not applicable

All electrical characteristics are determined by the batteries and fire alarm equipment used with the cabinet.
