1) Contents may vary due to performance data of the Battery

2) As result of the harm to unborn children Lead and Lead compounds are classified as toxic, Category 1.

As this category is not described with a specific hazard symbol, Lead compounds have to be labeled with

the “skull & crossbones“ symbol. Lead and Lead compounds are not classified “toxic“.

3) See section 12 – Ecological Information

4) Density of the electrolyte varies in accordance to the state of charge

5) Composition of the plastic may vary due to different customer requirements

SECTION 8: Exposure Controls and Personal Protection Engineering Controls Store batteries with adequate ventilation. Room ventilation is also required for batteries utilized for standby power generation. Never recharge batteries in an unventilated, enclosed space. Personal Protective Equipments During installation under normal conditions there is no exposure to lead or sulpuric acid. battery breakage, exposure to sulphuric acid and lead may occur.

SECTION 10: Stability and Reactivity Stability: The battery and contents are stable under normal conditions. Conditions to avoid: Overheating or overcharging the battery may results in acid mist and hydrogen generation. Incompatibility (materials to avoid): Strong alkaline materials, conductive metals, organic solvents, spark or open flame. Hazardous byproducts: Hydrogen gas may be generated in an overcharged condition, in fire or at very high temperatures. In fire, may emit CO, CO2 and Sulfur Oxides.

fauna. The electrolyte may also contain soluble components of lead that can be toxic to aquatic environments. 12.2 Lead and Lead compounds Chemical and physical treatment is required for the elimination from water. Waste water containing lead must not be disposed of in an untreated condition. The former classification of Lead compounds as toxic for the aquatic environment R50/53 had been triggered from test results generated in the 80’s for soluble Lead compounds (Lead Acetate).

To simplify the collection and recycling or reprocessing process, spent Lead Acid batteries must not be mixed with other batteries. By no means may the electrolyte (diluted sulphuric acid) be emptied in an inexpert manner. This process is to be carried out by the processing companies only. SECTION 14: Transport Information All CSB batteries are identified as “Battery, Electric Storage, Wet, Nonspillable” when transported by air, sea or by land transportation.
