16. OTHER INFORMATION
Components
VRLA Battery
To ensure the safe use of VRLA Batteries supplied by Yuasa Battery (UK) Ltd., the following precautions must be
observed:
observed:
Only trained, competent personnel, who have received special instructions for the hazards and risks, should be
allowed to handle VRLA Batteries.
Never short-circuit battery terminals, since sparks and arcs produced can injure personnel and are a fire and
explosion hazard.
VRLA Batteries emit hydrogen gas which is highly flammable and will form explosive mixtures in air from approx
4% to 76%. Never install VLRA Batteries in a gas-tight enclosure, whether during storage, transport or usage.
Batteries must always be charged on a voltage-regulated charging system with adequate ventilation provided to
avoid the build-up of ignitable gases and to promote good heat dissipation.
Do not charge VLRA Batteries above + 50 ºC, discharge or store above + 60 ºC.
Under extreme conditions of charging equipment malfunction and/or battery failure, high voltage and high
temperature conditions may occur causing the evolution of Hydrogen Sulphide (H
2
S) gas, which is toxic. If
detected by its odour of rotten eggs (at extremely low concentrations), switch off the charging equipment, evacuate
all personnel from the area and ventilate well. Seek advice before attempting to re-start charging.
