Battery Safety
WARNING:
The batteries installed in the UPS and within the battery extensions contain electrolyte.
Under normal conditions the containers are dry. A damaged battery may leak electrolyte that can be
dangerous in contact with the skin and cause irritation to the eyes. Should this happen wash the affected
part with copious amounts of water and seek immediate medical advice.
• Voltage is always present on the battery terminals.
• Even when discharged, a battery has the capacity to supply a high short circuit current, which, in
addition to causing damage to the battery itself and to associated cables, may expose the operator to
the risk of burns.
• Batteries should not be kept in storage for periods exceeding 6 months at 25°C without being
recharged (having been charged to 100% at the beginning of any such period). If these conditions
are not respected the performance of the battery can no longer be guaranteed. It is advisable to
recharge the batteries at least once every 4 months.
• Since new batteries often do not provide full capacity after an initial charge it may be necessary to
carry out a number of discharge/recharge cycles before optimum performance is achieved.
• In order to protect the environment, batteries must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations
governing disposal/recycling of toxic and harmful waste.
Repacking of Unit
Do not pack the equipment until at least two (2) hours have elapsed since the last recharge.
Place the equipment in bags made of a material sufficiently porous to allow it to breathe (e.g. 100µm
polyethylene).
Do not remove air from the packaging.
When packing unit for movement by common carrier, place in original, or equivalent packaging container.
