Watering (flooded/wet batteries ONLY)
3.3.
Water should never be added to gel or AGM batteries as they do not lose water during
use. Flooded/wet batteries need to be watered periodically. The frequency depends
upon battery usage and operating temperatures. Check new batteries every few weeks
to determine the watering frequency for your application. It is normal for batteries to
need more watering as they age.
Fully charge the batteries prior to adding water. Only add water to discharged or •
partially charged batteries if the plates are exposed. In this case, add just enough
water to cover the plates and then charge the batteries and continue with the
watering procedure below
Remove the vent caps and place them upside down so that dirt does not get on the
•
underside of the cap or for Plus Series
™
batteries, simply flip open the cap. Check
the electrolyte level
If the electrolyte level is well above the plates then it is not necessary to add more
•
water
If the electrolyte level is barely covering the plates, add distilled or de-ionized water
•
to a level 1/8” (3 mm) below the vent well (this is the plastic shield inside the vent
hole) for standard batteries and to the maximum (MAX) level indicator for Plus
Series
™
batteries
After adding water, secure vent caps back on batteries •
Tap water may be used if the levels of impurities are within acceptable limits. Refer •
to Table 3 for Water Impurity Limits
