Normal battery float/cycle life may be expected only when the battery is operated under the aforementioned temperature conditions. If
operation of the battery is not within these parameters, the battery warranty shall be null and void.
Useful service life is considered to have expired when the battery fails to deliver 80% of its rated string capacity. The rated string capacity is that
which is published in EnerSys catalog literature at the time of shipment. The determination of actual capacity shall be made in accordance with the
“performance test” guidelines of IEEE Std. 1188. If the battery is maintained per the installation/maintenance instructions and other
recommendations contained in this document and fails to deliver 80% of its rated string capacity, EnerSys shall credit the purchaser (user) toward the
purchase of a new EnerSys battery of equal or greater amp-hour capacity.
Either the cycle or float service warranty will be used to determine warranty credit. The type of duty that shows the most use will be the
governing factor.
Cycle Credit – Cycle credit is determined on battery usage. An approved cycle monitor must be used in order to obtain the cycle warranty. Cycle
credit is determined as follows: (Refer to Table B)
