1.7 Battery Safety
Basic Requirements
Before operating batteries, carefully read the safety precautions for battery
handling and master the correct battery connection methods.
D ANGER
● Do not expose batteries at high temperatures or around heat-generating
devices, such as sunlight, fire sources, transformers, and heaters. Overheating
may cause the batteries to explode.
● Do not burn batteries. Otherwise, the batteries may explode.
●
Use dedicated insulated tools.
●
Move batteries in the required direction. Do not place a battery upside down
or tilt it.
●
Keep the battery loop disconnected during installation and maintenance.
●
Use batteries of specified models. Using batteries of other models may
damage the batteries.
●
Dispose of waste batteries in accordance with local laws and regulations. Do
not dispose of batteries as household waste. If a battery is disposed of
improperly, it may explode.
●
The site must be equipped with qualified fire extinguishing facilities, such as
firefighting sands and powder fire extinguishers.
NO TICE
To ensure battery safety and battery management accuracy, use batteries provided
with the UPS by Huawei. Huawei is not responsible for any battery faults caused
by batteries not provided by Huawei.
Battery Installation
Before installing batteries, observe the following safety precautions:
●
Install batteries in a well-ventilated, dry, and cool environment that is far
away from heat sources, flammable materials, moisture, extensive infrared
radiation, organic solvents, and corrosive gases. Take fire prevention
measures.
●
Place and secure batteries horizontally.
●
Note the polarities when installing batteries. Do not short-circuit the positive
and negative poles of the same battery or battery string. Otherwise, the
battery may be short-circuited.
●
Check battery connections periodically, ensuring that all screws are securely
tightened.
