4.2.4 Charging the battery WARNING! The gases produced during charging can cause explosions The battery gives off a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen (electrolytic gas) during charging. Gassing is a chemical process. This gas mixture is highly explosive and must not be ignited. Always disconnect the charger and truck before connecting or disconnecting the charger and battery.
Page 141
The electrolyte temperature rises by approx. 10 K during charging. Charging should therefore only begin when the electrolyte temperature is below 45°C. The electrolyte temperature of batteries must be at least +10°C before charging. Otherwise the battery will not charge correctly. Below 10°C the battery is insufficiently charged with standard charging systems.

Aquamatik water replenishment system Water replenishment system design > 3 m Water container Tap connection with ball cock Flow indicator Shut-off cock Locking coupling Battery lock connector...
Functional Description The Aquamatik water replenishment system is used to adjust the rated electrolyte level automatically on traction batteries for industrial trucks. The battery cells are interconnected through hoses and are attached to the water supply (e.g. water container) through a plug connection. When the shut-off cock is opened all the cells are filled with water.
Filling time The filling time for a battery depends on the electrolyte level, the ambient temperature and the filling pressure. Filling ends automatically. The water supply line must be disconnected from the battery when the water has been filled. Water quality The quality of the water used to fill up electrolyte must correspond to purified or distilled water.
Cleaning measures The plug systems must only be cleaned with purified water in accordance with DIN 43530-4. No parts of the plugs must come into contact with solvent-based materials or soap. 6.10 Service mobile vehicle Mobile water filling vehicle with pump and filling gun to fill individual cells. The immersion pump in the container generates the necessary filling pressure.
Electrolyte circulation Functional Description Electrolyte circulation ensures the supply of air during charging to mix the electrolyte, thereby preventing any acid layer, shortening the charge time (charge factor approx. 1.07) and reducing the formation of gas during charging. The charger must be suitable for the battery and electrolyte circulation.
Page 153
NOTE If an installed electrolyte circulation system is seldom used or not used at all, or if the battery is subjected to severe temperature fluctuations, the electrolyte may flow back into the hose system. Attach a separate coupling system to the air inlet line, such as: locking coupling on the battery side and through-coupling on the air supply side.
Cleaning batteries Batteries and trays must be cleaned in order to – maintain cell insulation and protect cells from ground or external conductive parts. – Avoid damage from corrosion and stray currents. – Avoid excessive and varying automatic discharge of the individual cells or block batteries due to stray currents.
