Sealed lead-acid batteries contain hazardous materials and should be recycled or disposed of according to local regulations. Frequently Asked Questions How long should I charge a new lead acid battery for the first time? When charging a new sealed lead-acid battery for the first time, it is important to follow the manufacturer''s instructions
Refer to EnerSys® Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for lead acid batteries. In handling sulfuric acid, wear a face shield, plastic or rubber apron and gloves. Avoid spilling acid. Do not get acid in eyes, on skin or on clothing. In case of contact, flush immediately and thoroughly with clean water for at least 15 minutes.
7. Check for cracks in the battery casing. When the battery casing is cracked, it will leak battery acid. Since the acid is highly reactive, it will eat into the metallic plates of the car causing heavy costs in repairs. Inspect any broken terminals that may also leak battery acid. 8. Check for broken cables, broken connectors, and broken

In order to remain reliable, stationary batteries require care over their service life. This includes not only periodic inspections, but should also include performance testing when new as well as throughout its service life in accordance with the applicable industry recommended practice.
A lead acid battery is a number of cells filled with a mixture of sulfuric acid and water called electrolyte. The electrolyte covers vertical plates made of two types of lead. Chemical action between the electrolyte and the lead creates electrical energy. Volt (V): the standard measure of electrical potential.
