Safety guidelines and measures 3.1. General • Do not dismantle, open or shred secondary cells or batteries. • Do not expose cells or batteries to heat or fire. Avoid storage in direct sunlight. • Do not short-circuit a cell or a battery. Do not store cells or batteries haphazardly in a box or drawer where they may short-circuit each other or be short-circuited by other metal objects.
Warning! Never short circuit the battery. Caution! This product can store fault conditions internally, like excessive charge current or deep discharge situations. Super B uses this information in the warranty process. Caution! Do not operate battery beyond published maximum specifications.
3.5. Safety symbols and markings on product Several safety symbols and markings can be found on the product. These markings are displayed below. Never remove these markings!

4.2. Unpacking Check the battery for damage after unpacking. If the battery is damaged, contact your reseller or Super B. Do not install or use the battery if it is damaged! 4.3. Preparing the battery for use 4.3.1. Placement of the battery Before it is used, the Li-Ion battery must be positioned in such a way that it will not move around in its compartment during use.
3. Ensure both contacts are firmly tightened. 4. Place the handle covers over the terminals. (Figure 2) 13 Nm Figure 1. 2 3 5 Figure 2. 4.4.2. Connecting shrink fit type of power cables 1. Remove the automotive power terminals (Figure 3) 2.

4.4.3. Connecting power cables with automotive type terminals and caps 1. Remove the handle covers. a) Lift the handles 30°. (Figure 6) b) Remove the handles by pulling them outwards. (Figure 7) 2. Connect the load or charger to the X2 (+) terminal of the battery. (Figure 8) Warning! Do not connect the X1 (-) terminal first as this may lead to short circuits.
Super B Be in charge Figure 9. 4.5. Connecting to the CAN interface (RJ45) 4.5.1. Connecting the data cables The wired communication interface must be used in a bus network topology (Table 13). Do not use a ring- or a star topology. The wired communication interface specifications restrict the Bus length/Bus speed.

4.7.1. Connecting BM01 Super B battery monitor (optional) 1. Remove the 4 screws from the terminal cover. 2. Connect the BM01 cable 3mm female header to the J3 Monitor. 3. Secure the BM01 cable.
Super B Be in charge 4. Close the terminal cover. 4.8. Disconnecting a battery 1. Disconnect the negative wire from the X1 (-) terminal of the battery. 2. Disconnect the positive wire from the X2 (+) terminal of the battery.
Caution! Disconnect the charger from the battery if it is not used for a long time. Caution! To preserve the lifespan of the Li-Ion battery use a Super B charger or a charger approved by Super B. The use of other chargers, such as lead-acid chargers will shorten the lifespan of the Li-Ion battery.
(Ubulk), If UBulk is reached the charger will automatically switch to absorption phase. The maximum charge current (Imax) for Super B batteries is 1C, however for endurance cycle life Super B suggests to limit the current to C3 (1C = nominal battery capacity, C3 = 1/3 of nominal capacity).
Page 32
Absorption phase In this phase the charge voltage must be maintained at UAbsorption to fully charge the battery. If the charger currents drop below 5% (Imin) of the 1C current the absorption phase can be maintained for t2 minutes, see Table 16. Absorption Phase Parameter Typical...
During the batteries lifespan, the cells within the battery may be unbalanced due to high discharge currents and short float charge periods. This may result in a loss of capacity and overcharged cells. The SB12V1200Wh-M automatically balances the cells if necessary. Balancing can take place during charging and idle mode. 5.3. Power saving mode When CANopen communication is switched off by the S2 configuration switch, battery goes into power saving mode.
6.4. Maintenance The Li-Ion battery is maintenance free. Charge the battery to approximately > 80% of its capacity at least once every year to preserve the battery’s capacity. Storage Follow the storage instructions in this manual to optimize the lifespan of the battery during storage.
Super B Be in charge specifically limited or prohibited. The transport of the Li-Ion battery falls under hazard class UN3480, class 9. For transport over water, air and land, the battery falls within packaging group PI965 Section I. Use Class 9 Miscellaneous Dangerous Goods and UN Identification labels for transportation of lithium ion batteries which are assigned Class 9.
