6. Accidental Release Measures
On hand: Place material into suitable containers and call local fire/police department.
In water: Low electrical shock risk when EV or battery pack in water, GM also shared the
information. But H
2
gas was released by the electrolyzed water, you should keep good air
flow to avoid the H
2
gas accumulated to prevent hydrogen explosion in enclosed space. If
possible, remove from water and call local fire/police department.
7. Handling & Storage
One of the major risks associated with the transport of batteries and battery-powered
equipment is short-circuit of the battery as a result of the battery terminals coming into
contact with other batteries, metal objects, or conductive surfaces. Packaged batteries or cells
must be separated in a way to prevent short circuits and damage to terminals. They must be
packed in a strong outer packaging or be contained in equipment.
Handling: Do not expose the battery to excessive physical shock or vibration.
Short-circuiting should be avoided; however, accidental short-circuiting for a few seconds
will not seriously affect the battery. Prolonged short circuits will cause the battery to rapidly
lose energy, could generate enough heat to burn skin. Sources of short circuits include
jumbled batteries in bulk containers, coins, metal jewelry, metal covered tables, or metal belts
used for assembly of batteries in devices. To minimize risk of short-circuiting, the protective
case supplied with the battery should be used to cover the terminals when transporting or
storing the battery. Do not disassemble or deform the battery. Should an individual cell within
a battery become ruptured, do not allow contact with water. When operators handle the
battery which voltage more than 50v ,they must wear the insulation protection PPE.
Storage: The lithium ion battery should be between 25% and 75% of full charge when stored
for a long period of time. Stored in a cool, dry, and well ventilated area. Elevated
temperatures can result in loss of battery performance, leakage, or rust. Do not expose the
battery to open flames.
8. Exposure Control/Personal Protection
Engineering Control: Keep away from heat and open flame. Stored in a cool dry place.
