PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING VALVE-REGULATED LEAD-ACID BATTERIES-
RECOMMENDATION
(1) The recommended cut-off voltage during

current. The relationship between the storage
battery discharge current and the ideal discharge

specifications and technical handbooks.
the voltage drops below the recommended
discharge cut-off voltage.
the recommended discharge cut-off voltage is
recharged, the storage battery may generate heat
which could deform it or cause condensation to
form on the battery casing due to the evaporation
of moisture from inside the battery. Discharging
below the recommended discharge cut-off
voltage may also accelerate the deterioration of
the battery’s performance characteristics.
immediately after discharge. The instruction
manual of the equipment should contain informa-
tion telling the user not to overdischarge the
battery and to charge the battery immediately
after the use of the equipment (discharge). Even
if discharge of the battery is stopped before
voltage decreases to such a level that the battery-
driven equipment stops being operational, dete-
rioration of the battery may be accelerated by the
so-called sulphation phenomenon if it is not
recharged after use. The low voltage cut-off
circuit should be designed so that it can com-
pletely cut off the discharge current including a
weak current.
than that described in the specification and the
technical brochures is to be adopted, charge/
discharge characteristics and life characteristics
of the battery should be thoroughly checked in
advance. The adoption of adequate charge
methods and adequate charge conditions are
crucial to ensure safe use of the battery and for
fully utilizing the battery capacity.
Do not continue discharging to the point where

(8) When the equipment is not used for a long period,
of the battery as the main source of power by
repeating charge and discharge), use a charger
which operates by controlling either the charge
period or charge quantity. Continue charging the
battery for the time specified or until the charge
completion lamp, if provided, indicates completion
of charge. If charging is suspended before
completion, the service life of the battery may be
shortened.
as this may shorten the service life of the batter-
ies by causing an imbalance in charge/discharge
state among the batteries connected in parallel.
measure the total voltage with a high-accuracy
voltmeter of Class 0.5 or better. If the voltage
readout does not meet the specified value,
investigate the reason and take proper measures.
A total voltage that is lower than the specified
value indicates insufficient charge which may
reduce the battery capacity; a voltage higher than
specified indicates an overcharge which may
shorten service life of the battery or cause
problems such as thermal runaway in some
cases.
equipment after use, otherwise excessive
discharge may cause deterioration in battery
performance and shorten service life.
remove the battery from the equipment, charge it
fully, and store it in a place where humidity is low.
Unsatisfactory storage conditions may cause
deterioration in battery performance, shorten
service life and could cause rust to form on the
terminals.
