AST™ has designed a power system to run all the components in the Safe Room for a minimum of 7 days should the local power plant shut down or have a power outage.

The power system consists of 8 deep cycle valve regulated lead acid batteries, wired in 2 banks of 4 batteries each to ensure continuous power should there be an unexpected electrical problem.

The batteries will be installed in a completely enclosed battery box that is provided with circuit breakers, cooling fans, plugs for attaching all components in the safe room as well as  a battery charger that will continuously keep all batteries charged to full capacity so they are ready for use in case of a terrorist attack.

AST™ includes a laptop computer with the safe room and it is programmed so the batteries can be monitored at anytime to insure all are functioning correctly.
