V/ Installation of the battery
1 - Warning
The PowerSafe ® OPzV battery cells are already
charged when delivered, and are fitted with a
protective cap on each terminal. They should be
unpacked with care.
Avoid short-circuiting terminals of opposite
polarity, because these units are capable of
discharging at a very high current, even if the lid or
the container happens to be damaged.
2 - Unpacking the battery
Each shipment of PowerSafe OPzV batteries is
accompanied by a packing list and installation
instructions.
The packing list should be checked, and the
Standby Batteries Sales Department - Standby
Batteries should be told immediately of any missing
items.
The markings on the lid should be read carefully :
- The type of cell
- The voltage in volts
- The capacity in ampere hours
- The storage limit date
- The float charge voltage at 20-25°C
- The arrow must always point upwards if the
batteries are placed in the prone position.
Note : The symbol indicates that the accumulator
is of the recyclable type.
