7. Handling & Storage
One of the major risks associated with the transport of batteries and battery-powered equipment
is short-circuit of the battery as a result of the battery terminals coming into contact with other
batteries, metal objects, or conductive surfaces. Packaged batteries or cells must be separated in a
way to prevent short circuits and damage to terminals. They must be packed in a strong outer
packaging or be contained in equipment.
Handling: Do not expose the battery to excessive physical shock or vibration. Short-circuiting
should be avoided; however, accidental short-circuiting for a few seconds will not seriously affect the
battery. Prolonged short circuits will cause the battery to rapidly lose energy, could generate enough
heat to burn skin. Sources of short circuits include jumbled batteries in bulk containers, coins, metal
jewelry, metal covered tables, or metal belts used for assembly of batteries in devices. To minimize
risk of short-circuiting, the protective case supplied with the battery should be used to cover the
terminals when transporting or storing the battery. Do not disassemble or deform the battery. Should
an individual cell within a battery become ruptured, do not allow contact with water. When
operators handle the battery which voltage more than 50v ,they must wear the insulation protection
PPE.
Storage: The lithium ion battery should be between 25% and 75% of full charge when stored for a
long period of time. Stored in a cool, dry, and well ventilated area. Elevated temperatures can result
in loss of battery performance, leakage, or rust. Do not expose the battery to open flames.
8. Exposure Control/Personal Protection
Engineering Control: Keep away from heat and open flame. Stored in a cool dry place.
Personal Protection:
Respiratory Protection: Not necessary under normal conditions.
Eye/Face Protection: Not necessary under normal conditions. Wear safety glasses with side
shields if handling an open or leaking battery.
Gloves: Not necessary under normal conditions. Use neoprene or natural rubber gloves if handling
an open or leaking battery.
Foot Protection: Steel toed shoes recommended for large container handling.
