Checks and Maintenance
Maintenance-free sealed lead-acid batteries used in the system do not require the addition of water
or electrolyte. These batteries are charged and maintained in a fully charged state by the main
power supply's float charger during normal system operation. A discharged battery typically
reaches the float voltage of 27.6 VDC within 48 hours.
Follow the local AHJ and manufacturer recommendations for battery replacement intervals.
Minimal replacement battery capacity appears on the control panel marking label. Immediately
replace a leaking or damaged battery. You can get replacement batteries from the manufacturer.
• If a battery leaks and contact is made with the Sulfuric Acid, immediately flush skin and/or
eyes with water for at least 15 minutes. Water and household baking soda provides a good
neutralizing solution for Sulfuric Acid.
• If Sulfuric Acid gets into eyes, seek immediate medical attention.
• Ensure proper handling of the battery to prevent short circuits.
• Take care to avoid accidental shorting of the leads from uninsulated work benches, tools
