Warning
Preparation Hazards and
Classification:
Not dangerous with normal use. The materials within the component cells
contained in the battery may only represent a hazard if the structural integrity of
the battery and the component cell is compromised. Do not expose the batteries to
fire or open flame. Do not connect or mix batteries of varying sizes, chemistries, or
types. Do not short circuit, puncture, incinerate, crush, over-charge, over discharge,
or expose the batteries to temperatures above or below the declared limit.
Damage to the batteries may result in the risk of fire or explosion, which could
release dangerous hydrogen fluoride gas and exposure to the ingredients contained
within the cells of the battery or their combustion products could be harmful.
Appearance, Color, and
Odor:
Solid object, no odor.
Primary Route(s) of
Exposure:
Risk of exposure will only occur if the battery component cell is mechanically,
thermally, or electrically damaged and the enclosure is compromised. If this occurs,
exposure to electrolyte solutions contained within the battery cell may occur by
inhalation, eye contact, skin contact and ingestion.
Potential Health Effects:
Acute (Short Term): see Section 8 for Exposure Controls and Personal Protection.
In the event of disassembly or rupture, the electrolyte contained in the cell is
corrosive and may cause burns to skin and eyes.
Inhalation:
Inhalation of material from a sealed battery is not an expected route of exposure.
Vapors or mists from a ruptured battery may cause respiratory irritation.
Ingestion:
Swallowing of material from a sealed battery is not an expected route of exposure.
Swallowing mists from a ruptured battery may cause respiratory irritation, chemical
burns of the mouth and gastrointestinal tract irritation.
Skin:
Contact between the battery and skin will not cause any harm. Skin contact with
positive and negative terminals of high voltages may cause burns to the skin. Skin
contact with a ruptured battery can cause skin irritation.
Eye:
Eye contact with the contents of a ruptured battery can cause severe irritation to
the eye.
Medical Conditions
Aggravated by Exposure:
Medical conditions related to potential exposure modalities may be exacerbated by
exposure to the materials.
Electric Shock and Burn:
Battery System is not hazardous with normal use. The battery system does contain
dangerous current capability. The battery system should not be opened or serviced
except by qualified personnel.
