Important

Please read this manual immediately upon receipt of battery before unpacking and installing. Failure to comply with these instructions will render any warranties null

and void. The term battery within this literature pertains to (1) 12 Volt battery consisting of (6) individual cells or (1) 6 Volt battery consisting of (3) individual cells.

Care for Your Safety

Dispose at registered

waste handling

facility

Handling

DataSafe

HX batteries are supplied in a fully

charged state and must be unpacked carefully

to avoid very high short-circuit currents between

terminals of opposite polarity. Use care when

handling and moving batteries. Appropriate lifting

equipment must be used.

Other safety precautions that need to be taken

No smoking, no naked flames,

no sparks

Receiving the Shipment

Carefully examine the battery shipment upon arrival for any signs of transit

damage and that it agrees with the materials list or packing slip. Be very careful

not to inadvertently discard any accessories contained in the packing material.

Batteries contain sulfuric acid in glass fiber separators.

Use rubber gloves when handling broken or damaged containers in case of

acid leakage.

Storage

Store D ataSafe

HX batteries in a dry, clean and preferably cool location.

Since the batteries are supplied charged, storage time is limited. In order to

easily charge the batteries after prolonged storage, it is advised not to store it

more than:

6 months at ambient temperature no warmer than 77°F (25°C)

■ ■

4 months at 86°F (30°C)

■ ■

2 months at 104°F (40°C)

■ ■

Give the battery a freshening charge before the end of the recommended

storage interval.

A refreshing charge shall be performed at 2.26 Volts per cell (VPC) at 77°F

(25°C) for 96 hours or until the charge current does not vary for a 3 hour period.

The necessity of a charge can also be determined by measuring the open

circuit voltage of a stored battery.

Charging is advised if the voltage drops below 2.07 VPC.

Maximum total storage prior to installation is 2 years from date of shipment

from the factory to the customer. Freshening charges are required before the

end of the storage time period or more frequently, as noted above.

Failure to observe these conditions may result in greatly reduced capacity and

service life.

FAILURE TO CHARGE AS NOTED VOIDS THE BATTERY'S

WARRANTY.

Battery must be

recycled

Keep flames away

In case of accidental overcharge, a flammable gas

can escape from the safety vent.

Discharge any possible static electricity from

clothes by touching an earth connected part.

Danger

Clean all acid splash in eyes or on

skin with plenty of clean water.

Then seek medical help. Acid on

clothing is to be washed with water.

Protect eyes

Read

from electrolyte

instructions

Tools

Use tools with insulated handles.

Do not place or drop metal objects on the battery.

Remove rings, wristwatches and any other articles

of clothing with metal parts that may come into

contact with the battery terminals.

Risk of explosion or fire. Avoid any

short circuit. Metallic parts under

voltage on the battery, do not place

tools or items on top of the battery.

Installation

Install in clean, dry area. DataSafe HX batteries release minimal amounts

of gas during normal operation (gas recombination efficiency ≥ 97%). The

batteries can be installed near the main equipment. Batteries must be

installed in accordance with federal, state and local law regulations and the

manufacturer's instructions.

Temperature

■ ■

Avoid placing batteries in areas of high temperature or in direct sunlight. The

batteries will give their best performance and service life when operating at a

temperature between 68°F (20°C) and 77°F (25°C), however they are capable

of operating in a temperature range of -22°F (-30°C) to 122°F (50°C). Please

reference the charging float voltage section for more information regarding float

voltage adjustments for temperature variations. Reasonable precautions should

be taken to prevent continuous operation below -22°F (-30°C) or above 122°F

(50°C).

Ventilation

■ ■

Under normal conditions gas release is very low and natural ventilation is

sufficient for cooling purposes and inadvertent overcharge, enabling

DataSafe HX batteries to be used safely in offices and with main equipment.

However, care must be taken to ensure adequate ventilation when placed in

cabinets. Batteries must not be placed in sealed cabinets.

Stowing

■ ■

For proper installation, EnerSys

battery racks and cabinets are recommended.

For rack installations, reference Assembly Instructions for DataSafe HX and HX

Front Terminal UBC Battery Racks (US-HXRACK-IM).

For cabinet installations, reference DataSafe HX Battery Cabinet Systems

Range Summary (US-HXCAB-RS).

If provided, intercell connector covers should be installed after completing the

intercell connections.

Attention: Unless otherwise noted, battery racks and cabinets should not be

transported with rigid intercell connectors in place.

Torque

■ ■

The maximum torque load of intercell connector bolts (M6) is 6.8 to 10 N•m

(60 to 88 in-lbs). A loose connector can cause problems in charger adjustment,

erratic battery performance, possible damage to the battery and/or personal

injury.
