1.5 Chemical Risk

▲ WARNING

Lithium batteries are a chemical risk if misoperated,

mishandled or abused.

• Do wear electrically insulated gloves

• Do use electrically insulated tools

• Do wear eye protection

• Do wear safety toe boots / shoes

• Do handle battery carefully

• Do secure battery safely

• Do always assume battery terminals are energized

1.7 Do Not’s

• Do not immerse battery in water

• Do not lift or carry the battery during usage or operation

• Do not operate or store battery outside of operating limits

• Do not short circuit battery

• Do not puncture battery

1.8 DC Motor Connection

Direct connection to DC motors, without proper safety protection including motor controllers, and external motor voltage clamping

systems (such as high power anti-parallel diodes or braking resistor systems), may result in damage to the internal battery

pack protection system which may result in unsafe situations. Please consult Discover Battery technical support before directly

connecting any motor loads.

1.9 Transportation

If the battery is not installed in equipment, it must be transported in the original package or equivalent.

Batteries are tested according to UN Handbook of Tests and Criteria, part III, sub section 38.3 (ST/SG/AC. 10/11/Rev.5). For

transport the batteries belong to category UN3480, Class 9.

2. Battery Operating Limits

2.1 Maximum Battery Operating Limits

The battery should not be operated outside the Maximum Operating Limits, the BMS will open its internal relay and disconnect

the battery if any of the following limits are exceeded.
