Do not dispose of lead acid batteries except through channels in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. This manual contains important instructions for Flooded Lead-Acid Battery Systems that should be followed during the installation and maintenance of the battery system.
Store batteries indoors in a clean, dry and cool location. DO NOT stack pallets. Damage may occur and the warranty will be voided. Valve-regulated lead acid batteries must not be topped up with water through their entire life. The valves must not be opened because the access to oxygen in the air discharges the cells.
Abstract: Recommended design practices and procedures for storage, location, mounting, ventilation, instrumentation, preassembly, assembly, and charging of vented lead-acid batteries are provided. Required safety practices are also included. These recommended practices are applicable to all stationary applications.
EnerSys flooded batteries are installed on racks that differ in type, size, seismic rating, and configuration. Refer to the RACK ASSEMBLY DRAWING and instructions included with the rack shipment for the details of your installation. Lay out the battery system before installation. Consult Section 5.0 for installation considerations.
Disconnect charging source and load before connecting or disconnecting terminals. Vented lead-acid (VLA) batteries can contain an explosive mixture of hydrogen gas. Do not smoke, cause a flame or spark in the immediate area of the batteries. This includes static electricity from the body and other items that may come in contact with the battery.
A lead acid battery is a number of cells filled with a mixture of sulfuric acid and water called electrolyte. The electrolyte covers vertical plates made of two types of lead. Chemical action between the electrolyte and the lead creates electrical energy. Volt (V): the standard measure of electrical potential.
