Non-Spillable Lead Acid Battery

Sulfuric Acid: Remove to fresh air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Consult a physician. Lead: Remove from exposure, gargle, wash nose and lips; consult physician.

Sulfuric Acid: Flush with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes; remove contaminated clothing completely, including shoes. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated shoes. Lead: Wash immediately with soap and water.

Sulfuric Acid and Lead: Flush immediately with large amounts of water for a least 15 minutes while lifting lids. Seek immediate medical attention if eyes have been exposed directly to acid.

Sulfuric Acid: Give large quantities of water; do not induce vomiting or aspiration into the lungs may occur and can cause permanent injury or death; consult a physician. Lead: Consult physician immediately.

CO2; foam; dry chemical. Use appropriate media for surrounding fire.

Do not use carbon dioxide directly on cells.

Highly flammable hydrogen gas is generated during charging and operation of batteries. Water applied to electrolyte generates heat and causes it to spatter. Strings of series connected batteries may still pose risk of electric shock even when charging equipment is shut down.

If batteries are on charge, shut off power. Keep sparks or other sources of ignition away from batteries. Do not allow metallic materials to simultaneously contact negative and positive terminals of cells and batteries. Follow manufacturer's instructions for installation and service.

Stop flow of material, contain/absorb small spills with dry sand, earth, and vermiculite. Do not use combustible materials. If possible, carefully neutralize spilled electrolyte with soda ash, sodium bicarbonate, lime, etc.

Acid must be managed in accordance with local, state, and federal requirements. Consult state environmental agency and/or federal EPA.

Unless involved in recycling operations, do not breach the casing or empty the contents of the battery. Handle carefully and avoid tipping, which may allow electrolyte leakage. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. If battery case is broken, avoid contact with internal components. Keep vent caps on and cover terminals to prevent short circuits. Place cardboard between layers of stacked automotive batteries to avoid damage and short circuits. Use banding or stretch wrap to secure items for shipping. Wear face and eye protection when near batteries being charged.

Store batteries in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas with impervious surfaces and adequate containment in the event of spills. Batteries should also be stored under roof for protection against adverse weather conditions. Separate from incompatible materials.

Prohibit smoking.

Keep away from fire, sparks and heat. Prohibit smoking and avoid creation of flames and sparks nearby.

This product is stable under normal conditions at ambient temperature.
