Electrical Safety
Due to the battery’s low internal resistance and high power density, high levels of short circuit current can be developed across
the battery terminals. Do not rest tools or cables on the battery. Use insulated tools only. Follow all installation instructions
and diagrams when installing or maintaining battery systems.
Fiberglass Separator
Fiberglass is an irritant to the upper respiratory tract, skin and eyes. For exposure up to 10F°/ use MSA Comfoll with type H
filters. Above 10F use Ultra Twin with type H filter. This product is not considered carcinogenic by NTP or OSHA.
SECTION 10: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Lead and its compounds can pose a threat if released to the environment. See Waste Disposal Method in Section 8.
SECTION 11: CONTROL MEASURES
Engineering Controls:
Store and handle in well-ventilated area. If mechanical ventilation is used, components must be acid resistant
Work Practices:
Handle batteries cautiously to avoid damaging the case. Avoid contact with internal components. Do not allow metallic
articles to contact the battery terminals during handling.
Respiratory Protection:
None required under normal conditions. When concentrations of sulfuric acid mist are known to exceed PEL,use NIOSH or
MSHA-approved respiratory protection.
Personal Protection and Equipment:
None needed under normal conditions. If battery case is damaged,
 Protective gloves: use rubber or plastic acid-resistant gloves with elbow-length gauntlet.
 Eye protection: use chemical goggles or face shield.
 Other protection: Acid-resistant apron. Under severe exposure or emergency conditions,wear acid –resistant clothing
and boots.
 In areas where sulfuric acid is handled in concentrations greater than 1%,emergency eyewash stations and showers
should be provided, with unlimited water supply.
SECTION 12: NFPA HAZARD RATING FOR SULFURIC ACID
A. Not applicable under normal conditions.
B. Incase of damage resulting in breakage of the battery container, see section10,personal protection and equipment.
