Attention in Installation
(Regulations for Maintenance of Valve-control Sealed Lead-acid Battery) (NP Series)

(1) Fix the NP battery to avoid vibration and concussion. For long-term use after fixing the NP battery inside the machine, don't use upside down. In fixing the battery, attention shall be made not to cover the upper lid with the device for fixing the battery (or the sticking label), because under the upper lid is the exhaust valve. If the upper lid is covered, the air generated in the battery cannot flow out.

(2) As NP battery will generate inflammable gas (hydrogen) in the process of charging and storing, don't put the battery near the places with sparks (switch, and fuse etc).

(3) Don't contain the batter with the sealed container and container with structure that may lead to accumulation of inflammable gas. In order to avoid accumulation of inflammable gas, please use the batter containers with upper and lower ventilation holes. If inflammable gas is accumulated, it will cause damage to the NP batter container in flaming.

(4) In using the NP battery in the equipment, in order to prevent temperature increase, it is recommended to install the battery at the utmost bottom of the machine. In arranging the batteries, keep the temperature difference between batteries below 3¡æ and give consideration to the loopholes of the container. In addition, it is necessary to avoid the contact of batteries with the inner wall or with each other.

(5) Don't put the batteries near the heating objects (such as transformer).

(6) In using multiple batteries, make sure the wiring between NP batteries is correct without shortcut.

(7) In connection, don't mistake the poles.
In connecting NP battery to the charger or load, first turn the line switch to the OFF position. In connecting the 24Ah and above battery lead alloy terminals, first apply anti-rust agent (Vaseline) on the terminals, and turn the bolt tight according to the torque values in the following table. If it is not tight enough, the heavy current will cause danger of spark. After connection, apply a layer of anti-rust agent on the bolts, nuts and the contact area of the connecting conductor.

(8) Number of Parallel Connection
In float charging, the socket joint terminal batteries may be connected in parallel in three rows at most. The number of bolt-fixing terminals is not limited, but small number my increase reliability. In addition, in parallel connection, it is necessary to consider making the connection conductor between the rows similar to the contact resistance, so as to balance the charging current of each row. In actual application, no more than three rows shall be used.

In recycling charging, parallel connection may cause shortened service life and damage. So avoid parallel application.

(9) In using batteries of different content, different degrees of newness, different manufacturers, the different characteristics may cause damage to the batteries and machines, so such a case shall be avoided.

(10) Avoid putting the NP batteries at the place near to the gasoline, amyl acetate and other oil products. Contact with the above articles may cause to cracking of the batteries. In using the brackets made of synthetic resin in replacement of the iron brackets, don't select the synthetic resin without plasticizer.
