Important
Read these instructions immediately on receipt. Failure to
comply with these instructions can render any warranty null
and void.€
Caution

Danger
California Proposition 65 Warning – Battery posts, terminals
and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and
reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
PowerSafe

SBS batteries are supplied in a charged condition,
and are capable of extremely high short circuit currents. Take
care to avoid short-circuiting terminals of opposite polarity.
1. Receiving
1.1 In-Transit Damage or Short Shipments
Upon receipt of a shipment, check that the items delivered are
undamaged and match the carrier's Bill of Lading. Report any
damage or shortages to the carrier. EnerSys
for shipment damage or shortages, which the receiver does not
report to the carrier.
1.2 Shipment Damage or Shortages
Open the shipping containers and check the contents for
damage and against the packing slip. Immediately inform
EnerSys of any damaged or missing items. EnerSys is not
responsible for damaged or missing items after
a shipment has been in storage.
2. Storage
2.1 Storage Conditions and Time
If a battery cannot be immediately installed it should be stored in
a clean, cool, dry area.
During storage batteries lose capacity through self-discharge.
High temperature increases the rate of self-discharge and
reduces the storage life.
The chart below shows the relationship between open-circuit
voltage (OCV) and storage time at various temperatures.

Instruction Sheet
The maximum storage times before a freshening charge is
required and recommended open circuit voltage audit intervals
are:

Storage Time
°F / °C
50 /10
59 / 15
68 / 20
77 / 25
86 / 30
95 / 35
104 / 40
Monoblocs must be given a freshening charge when bloc
voltages approach the equivalent of 2.10 volts per cell or when
the maximum storage time is reached, whichever occurs first.
2.2 Freshening Charge
Charge the monoblocs, or string at a constant voltage equivalent
to 2.27Vpc with 10% of the C
least 24 hours.
3. Battery Location
The battery compartment/room must have adequate ventilation
to limit hydrogen accumulation to a maximum of 1% by volume
of free air.
4. Installation
Install the batteries in accordance with the instructions and/or
layout drawing, taking care to ensure correct terminal location
and polarity. On each monobloc the positive terminal is
identified by a "+" symbol.
Connect the blocs with the connectors and fasteners provided.
The fastener torque value is:

SBS J13 - 70
SBS B8 - 14
