Page 16: Acceptance Testing
RECORD KEEPING Upon completion of the acceptance test, the battery system CONT. should be placed on float charge at 2.25 volts per cell to restore the battery to its’ rated capacity. Batteries should not require an equalization charge once they have passed their initial acceptance test. Consult with East Penn Reserve Power’s Product Support group before performing additional equalizing charges on batteries that have successfully passed their initial acceptance test. -
Page 17: Capacity Testing
Capacity Testing 7 Thread Polypropylene rope through the battery posts as illustrated below and knot. Per IEEE 1188 “Capacity testing is used to trend battery aging. The result of a capacity test is a calculation of the capacity of the battery. The calculated capacity is also used to determine if the battery requires replacement.”... - Page 18 9. Pull cell from module onto lifting device. Care should be taken so lifting device does not come in contact with cell posts. 10. Replacement cell may have built up pressure while on open circuit. Refer to step 5 for relieving the internal cell pressure.
