Dangers from
mains current
and charging current
Danger due to
acid, gases and
vapours
Anyone working with battery chargers exposes themselves to numerous dangers, e.g.:
-Risk of electrocution from mains current and charging current.
-Hazardous electromagnetic fields, which can risk the lives of those using cardiac
pacemakers.
An electric shock can be fatal. Every electric shock is potentially life threatening. To avoid
electric shocks while using the charger:
-Do not touch any live parts inside or on the outside of the charger.
-Under no circumstances touch the battery poles.
-Do not short-circuit the charging cable or charging terminals.
All cables and leads must be secured, undamaged, insulated and adequately dimensioned. Loose connections, scorched, damaged or inadequately dimensioned cables and
leads must be immediately repaired by authorised personnel.
Batteries contain acid which is harmful to the eyes and skin. During charging, gases and
vapours are released that may be harmful to health and are highly explosive in certain
circumstances.
Only use the charger in well-ventilated areas to prevent the accumulation of explosive
gases. Battery rooms are not deemed to be hazardous areas provided that a concentration of hydrogen of less than 4% can be guaranteed by the use of natural or forced ventilation.
Maintain a distance of at least 0.5 m (19.69 in.) between the battery and charger during
the charging procedure. Possible sources of ignition such as fire and naked flames must
be kept away from the battery.
The battery connection (e.g. charging terminals) must not be disconnected for any
reason during charging.
Do not inhale any of the gases and vapours released under any circumstances - Make
sure the area is well ventilated.
To prevent short circuits, do not place any tools or conductive metals on the battery.
5
Battery acid must not get into the eyes or onto the skin or clothes. Wear protective
goggles and suitable protective clothing. Rinse any acid splashes thoroughly with clean
water and seek medical advice if necessary.
General information regarding the
handling of batteries
Protecting yourself and others
-Protect batteries from dirt and mechanical damage.
-Store charged batteries in a cool place. Self discharge is kept to a minimum at
approx. +2 °C (35.6 °F).
-Carry out a visual inspection at least once a week or as often as specified by the
battery manufacturer to ensure that the acid (electrolyte) level in the battery is at the
max. mark.
