11 Storage, Dismantling and Disposal
11.1 Storage
Long storage times without occasionally recharging
or discharging can lead to permanent damage to
the battery.
If the battery is stored at room temperature (20°C to 30°C), there
will be a spontaneous self-discharge due to inner reactions of
3 to 6% a month. Please avoid storage at temperatures above
room temperature. High storage temperature will lead to the
increased self-discharge of the battery.
To retain full capacity and service life, batteries stored at room
temperature should be recharged every six months.
i
Before being put into storage, the PROTECT D
should be connected to the power supply to ensure
that the battery is completely charged. For the
minimum charging time, please refer to the
information in Chapter 10.1.
11.2 Dismantling
To de-install the UPS, perform the same steps as for the
installation but in reversed order.
11.3 Disposal
In the interests of environmental protection and recycling, please
dispose of the individual parts of the device as specified and
according to the legal regulations when its service life has
ended. Please remember that any violation of these regulations
can be interpreted as a breach of the law.
