SERVICE TOOLS

NOTE: Specific gravity changes with temperature. Normal

values are at 77°F . This should be kept in mind
when reading specific gravity and proper correction
should be made to judge normal values. For each
3° above 77°F

ADD 0.001 to the measured Sp. Gr.

For each 3° below 77°F

SUBTRACT 0.001.

21. STORAGE OF

BATTERIES

a. Batteries should be stored in a clean, cool, dry and well
ventilated location away from radiators or heating ducts,
etc., and protected from exposure to direct sunlight.

b. Before storing, it is necessary that the battery be

fully charged

and the electrolyte at the proper level. Disconnect
leads or cable connections to prevent use or possible
added loss of charge during prolonged storage period. Do
not remove electrolyte or dismantle the battery.

c. If storage temperature is 80°F or higher, check gravity at
least monthly, if 50°F, or lower, every two months. Whenever
gravity falls to about 1.240 or below, give equalizing charge as in
Section 13.g and also before returning to service.

22. ACCESSORIES

Certain Accessories (tools) are necessary or desirable for routine
work in the charging room. We feel the following are the minimum
number of tools for every charging room.

a. EnerSys PRO Alarm Hydrogen Detector #801550. This alarm
will monitor the hydrogen emitted from batteries while gassing
during charge, and provide for ventilation and warning before
explosive levels are reached (as the National Fire Protection
Agency recommends).

b. EnerSys Hydrometer #13142 (up to 1.300 Sp. Gr.). These
devices accurately and quickly measure the concentration of acid
in the electrolyte. Required to properly check full recharge, depth
of discharge or freezing points as shown in Tables 2 and 3. Special
floats available for different specific gravity scales.

c. EnerSys Thermometer #88330. Quickly takes the internal
temperature of single cell. Assures that you have a method to
check that charge temperatures have not exceeded 110°F (see
para. 10.a).

d. EnerSys Watering Guns EZ Fill #50092755 or PRO Fill #92755.
This tool allows manual pre-selection of internal watering height
and when connected to a standard pressurized watering system
automatically shuts off water flow. Flip Top Vent Cap #811112
makes watering a snap when used with watering guns.

e. EnerSys PRO Wash Light #94883-4QT. This unique
cleaner/neutralizer solution is a pre-mixed liquid in a spray bottle
which neutralizes spilled electrolyte (acid) as it cleans and
degreases your battery. In addition, the liquid turns from red to
yellow giving a positive indication any corrosive acid has been
neutralized.

f. EnerSys PRO Safety Kit #85879 provides all the personal
protective equipment necessary to satisfy OSHA regulations.

g. EnerSys PRO Clean Battery Maintenance Kit #85363 and PRO
Wipes #85368. These products will help to maintain a clean
battery.

h. EnerSys Emergency Spill Kits meet OSHA requirements
1910.178 (g)(2). Available in three convenient sizes: 853610 30
gallon, 853615 15 gallon, or 853620 6 gallon.

OTHER OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES:

Other tools may be needed in your operation because of the way
your company uses batteries. EnerSys also offers the following:

i. EnerSys Pro-Meter #94870. This shirt pocket sized
meter is versatile for 13 ranges in AC, DC and OHM readings. It
has an audible continuity signal and is accurate to 0.75%. Ideal for
the person who wants to do basic battery
or charger troubleshooting.
