The life expectancy of batteries is temperature dependence at which they are stored and operated. Batteries should be used in a 70 F (21 C) environment. Consider that for every 15 F (8.3 C) increase in temperature, the life expectancy is halved. Exposure to temperatures in excess of 90 F (32 C) should be limited to no more than 30 days per year.
SECTION 3 BATTERY CABINET SETUP This section describes: Floor load-carrying capacity and clearances Handling the cabinet Equipment inspection FLOOR LOAD-CARRYING CAPACITY When planning the commissioning, consider the battery cabinet weight for floor where it will be placed. The load-carrying capacity of the installation surface must be adequate for point and distributed loading. The approximate weights are shown in the following table.

2) Remove N.6 10mm lag bolts securing the cabinet to the pallet. (N.3 for side see Fig. 2). 3) See Fig. 3 to identify the correct area for the insertion of the forks. 4) Make sure forks are at maximum separation 5) Keep the people out of the area of possible fall of the cabinet, during unloading and through path of destination.
INSPECTING THE EQUIPMENT If Battery cabinet is not provided with battery blocks installed: Remove all panels (front, rear, left and right side). See in the figure the appearance of the cabinet without panels. The components used for the assembly of battery blocks are always provided and you’ll find the followings inside the cabinet: Pos.# 1) Cable 1/0 or #2x1/0 AWG length 360mm (14.17 in.) crimped to “green”...
SECTION 4 INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY OF BATTERY BLOCKS The following operations must be performed by properly trained and qualified personnel, within a suitable area with no access to other people WARNING! When all the cells are connected, the voltage to the terminals could exceed 500Vdc and it is dangerous. Risk of electric shock or burns due to accidental short circuits Appropriate eye protection must be worn to prevent injuries from accidental electrical arcs Risk of electrolyte leakage from batteries.
