Connecting Gas Ventilation Tubes
Warning!
It is important that every battery is connected with the ventilation tube,
and that the first battery in the chain is plugged. The tube must be routed
out of the cabinet.
There is a risk that explosive gases are accumulated in the cabinet.
Note:
When installing ventilation tubes, always use tubes with
flammability class UL94V-2, or better.
It is recommended that when installing new batteries also install new
ventilation tubes.
Do the following to connect the gas ventilation tubes:
1. Cut the venting tube in four pieces for each battery string, three pieces
with length = 110 mm, the fourth tube is the remaining length. Use the
short pieces for connecting the batteries in the battery string as in
Figure 17.
2. Use the long tube and connect the gas ventilation tube between the
shelves as in Figure 18 and Figure 19.
3. At the top shelf, fit the end stop to the battery at the end of the battery
string as in Figure 17.
