Section2: Hazards identification

2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

Classification according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 [CLP/GHS]

Material is an article. No health effects are expected during normal use of this product as sold. Hazardous exposure may occur when

the product is heated, oxidized or otherwise processed, damaged or subjected to misuse. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for

installation, service and use.

No hazards occur during the normal operation of a Lead Acid Battery as it is described in the instructions for use that are provided

with the Battery. Lead acid Batteries have three significant characteristics:

 They contain an electrolyte which contains diluted sulphuric acid. Sulphuric acid may cause severe chemical burns.

 During the charging process or during operation they might develop hydrogen gas and oxygen, which under certain

circumstances may result in an explosive mixture.

 They can contain a considerable amount of energy, which may be a source of high electrical current and a severe electrical

shock in the event of a short circuit.

Note: The Batteries have to be marked with the symbols listed under section15.

2.2 Other hazards

Adverse human health effects and symptoms:

Acute

Chronic

Inhalation

Under normal conditions of use, no health effects are expected.

Contents of an open battery can cause respiratory irritation.

Repeated and prolonged exposure may cause

irritation.

Skin

Under normal conditions of use, no health effects are expected.

No data available

Eye

Under normal conditions of use, no health effects are expected.

Exposure to dust may cause irritation.

No data available.

Ingestion

Under normal conditions of use, no health effects are expected.

Lead ingestion may cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting,

diarrhea and severe cramping.

No data available

HMIS Rating for Sulfuric Acid:

Health: 3 Flammability: 0 Reactivity: 2 Other: 0

Rating Codes:

0 = Insignificant, 1 = Slight,

2 = Moderate 3 = High 4 = Extreme

NFPA Rating for Sulfuric Acid:

Health: 3 Flammability: 0 Reactivity: 2 Other: 0

Section 12: Ecological information This information is of relevance if the battery is broken and the ingredients are released to environment. 12.1 Electrolyte (diluted sulphuric acid) In order to avoid damage to the sewage system, the acid has to be neutralized by means of time or sodium carbonate before disposal. Ecological damage is possible by change of pH. The electrolyte solution reacts with water and organic substances, causing damage to flora and fauna.
