SECTION 5 – HEALTH AND SAFETY
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting or give food or drink. Seek medical attention immediately.
The following instructions apply to exposure of internal components.
Inhalation: Provide fresh air and seek medical attention.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with soap and water. If a chemical burn occurs or if irritation persists, seek medical attention.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence of the chemical remains.
Seek medical attention.
SECTION 6 – FIRE HAZARD & FIREFIGHTING
In case of fire, it is permissible to use any class of extinguishing medium on these batteries or their packing material. Cool exterior of batteries if exposed to fire to
prevent rupture.
Fire fighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
Storage: Store in a cool, well ventilated area. Elevated temperatures can result in shortened battery life.
Mechanical Containment: If potting or sealing the battery in an airtight or watertight container is required, consult your PAKKO Brands, LLC representative
for precautionary suggestions. Batteries normally evolve hydrogen which, when combined with oxygen from the air, can produce a combustible or explosive
mixture unless vented. If such a mixture is present, short circuits, high temperature, or static sparks can cause an ignition.
Do not obstruct safety release vents on batteries. Encapsulation (potting) of batteries will not allow cell venting and can cause high pressure rupture.
Handling: Accidental short circuit for a few seconds will not seriously affect the battery. Prolonged short circuit will cause the battery to lose energy through
heating, and can cause the safety release vent to open. Sources of short circuits include jumbled batteries in bulk containers, metal jewelry, metal covered
tables or metal belts used for assembly of batteries into devices.
Soldering directly to a battery is not recommended. If welding to the battery is required, consult your PAKKO sales representative for proper precautions to
prevent seal damage or short circuit.
