III. PHYSICAL DATA

Electrolyte:

Boiling Point: 203 - 240° F Specific Gravity (H2O = 1): 1.215 to 1.350

Melting Point: N/A Vapor Pressure (mm Hg): 10

Solubility in Water: 100% Vapor Density (AIR = 1): Greater than 1

Evaporation Rate: (Butyl Acetate = 1) Less than 1 % Volatile by Weight: N/A

Appearance and Odor:

IV. FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA

Flash Point: N/A Flammable Limits: LEL = 4.1% (Hydrogen Gas) UEL = 74.2%

Extinguishing Media: CO2; foam; dry chemical

Special Fire Fighting Procedures:

If batteries are on charge, shut off power. Use positive pressure, self-contained breathing apparatus. Water applied to electrolyte generates

heat and causes it to spatter. Wear acid-resistant clothing.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards:

Highly flammable hydrogen gas is generated during charging and operation of batteries. To avoid risk of fire or explosion, keep sparks or other

sources of ignition away from batteries. Do not allow metallic materials to simultaneously contact negative and positive terminals of cells and

batteries. Follow manufacturer's instructions for installation and service.

V. REACTIVITY DATA

Stability: Stable

Conditions To Avoid: Prolonged overcharge; sources of ignition

Incompatibility: (Materials to avoid)

Sulfuric Acid: Contact with combustibles and organic materials may cause fire and explosion. Also reacts violently with strong reducing agents,

metals, sulfur trioxide gas, strong oxidizers and water. Contact with metals may produce toxic sulfur dioxide fumes and may release flammable

hydrogen gas.

Lead Compounds: Avoid contact with strong acids, bases, halides, halogenates, potassium nitrate, permanganate, peroxides, nascent hydrogen

and reducing agents.
