1.3. Transportation
• The HAB™ should kept horizontal while being moved, except when it is being lifted into
place for mounting.
• Because the HAB™ weighs over 230 lb., it should be moved with the help of multiple peo-
ple and moving / lifting equipment rated over 300 lb.
• Do not drop the HAB™ or damage will occur.
• If you are transporting HAB™ batteries while they are still in the packing crate, do not stack
them more than two layers high and ensure they are strapped together to prevent tumbling.
• Only transport the HAB™ face up.
• Check the HAB™ immediately after transporting.
• If the HAB™ is damaged in any way, do not use it;
contact KiloVault® immediately.
1.3.1. Storage
In addition to the General Safety Precautions and Instructions, the following guidelines should be
observed when storing the HAB™ .
• Long-term storage (between one and six months) of the HAB™ should be stored indoors in
a clean, dry, shaded, and well-ventilated area at a temperature between 59° and 95°F (15°
and 35°C).
• Store the HAB™ no longer than 6 months.
• The HAB™ must be charged to at least 70% (the state of charge upon delivery) before
storage.
• Repeated 100% discharges will decrease the battery capacity. For example, 3000, 100% dis-
charge cycles will reduce the battery capacity to about 75% of the original amp hour capacity.
• Fully charge the battery within 15 days of a deep discharge of 90% or more.
• Do not drop, stack, or turn the KiloVault® HAB™ upside down.
• Store the KiloVault® HAB™ away from children and animals.
1.3.2. Response to Emergency Situations
The HAB™ is comprised of multiple batteries and is designed to prevent hazards resulting
from failures; however, no battery system is 100% safe, and KiloVault®, LLC cannot guarantee
its absolute safety.
