3. Installation
2. Storage
The battery must be stored in a dry indoor
location, on open, well ventilated shelves
away from direct sunlight between 0C
and +30C (+32F and 86F).
Uptimax batteries are supplied filled with
electrolyte and charged. They can be
stored in this condition for maximum
24months from date of shipment in
accordance with the recommendations set
forth in this I&O.
Storage of a filled battery at temperatures
above +30C (+86F) can result in
permanent change and loss of product
performance, depending on the duration of
the storage above the maximum
recommended temperature.
3.1. Location
Install the battery in a dry and clean room.
Avoid direct sunlight and heat.
The battery will give the best performance
and maximum service life when the
ambient temperature is between +10C to
+30C (+50F to +86F)
3.2. Mounting
Interconnect the cells with the appropriate
polarity. Connections between the battery
and the load shall be made with nickel
plated cable lugs. Tightening torque for the
terminals must be:
M 6
4. Commissioning
Cells
stored up to 6 months:
A commissioning charge is normally not
required and the cells are ready for
immediate use. However, the product's
full performance will only be achieveable
after six months of charging in service
(see section 7.3 charge acceptance of
Technical manual).
If the published performance is required
immediately, please refer to Section 4 and
the procedure dedicated to cells stored
more than 6 months and up to 2years.
Cells
stored more than 6 months
and up to 2 years:
A commissioning charge is necessary:
C
ommissioning at ambient temperature
between + 10C to
+ 30C (+ 50F to + 86F)
-C
onstant current charge:
10 h at 0.2 C5 A recommended
(see Table A).
Notice: At the end of charge, the cell
voltage will reach about 1.80 V, thus
the charger shall be able to supply such
a voltage.
When the charger maximum voltage
setting is too low to supply constant
current charging, divide the battery into
two parts to be charged individually at
constant current.
-C
onstant potential charge:
1.55 V/cell for a minimum of 24 h
with current limit of 0.2 C5 A (see the
current in Table A).
If this voltage level is not available, then
charging may be carried out at 1.50
V/cell for 36 hours
C
ommissioning at ambient temperature
above + 30C (+ 86F)
-O
nly constant current charge:
10 h at 0.2 C5 recommended.
The electrolyte temperature is to be
monitored during charge. If the
temperature exceeds + 45C (+113F)
during charging, then it must be stopped
to reduce the temperature. The charging
can be resumed when electrolyte
temperature drops below
+ 40C (+ 104F).
