Product Name Ni-MH Battery
Revision date 16-Apr-2015
Exposure to temperatures of above 2120F can cause venting of the liquid electrolyte. Internal shorting could also
cause venting of the electrolyte There is potential for exposure to iron, nickel, cobalt, rare earth metals (cerium,
lanthanum neodymium, and praseodymium), manganese, and aluminum fumes during fire: use self-contained
breathing apparatus
Protective equipment and precautions for firelFighters
As in any fire. wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHNNIOSH (approved or equivalent)
and full protective gear
6.A
Appropriate ven川ation
Evacuate and vantilate spill area Remove all sources of ignition or heat Stop leak if safe to do so Move
containers from spiH area Kaep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Review Section 5 and
Section 7 sections before proceeding with clean-up
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, water ways, drains and sewers
Remove all sources of ignition or heat Stop leak if safe to do so. Move containers from spill area. Carefully collect
undamaged batteries in a clean, dry and appropnate container for reuse or disposal. If electrolyte leaks or spills,
collect all released mater:al in an appropriate container before proper disposal

Precautions for safe handling
Accidental short circuit for a few seconds will not seriously affect the battery However, this battery is capable of
delivering very high short circuit currents. Prolonged short circuits will cause high cell temperatures which can
cause skin burns Sources of short circuits include jumbled batteries in bulk containers, metal jewelry, and metal
covered tables or metal belts used for assembly of batteries into devices
If soldering or weldmg to the battery is raquired, use of tabbed batteries is recommended. If this cannot be done,
consult your Great Power Battery Company representative for proper precautions to prevent seal damage or short
circuit
Do not open battery The negative electrode material may be pyrophoric. Should an individual cell from a battery
become disassembled. spontaneous combustion of the negative electrode is possible. This is much more likely to
happen if the electrode is removed from its metal container Here can be a delay between exposure to air and
spontaneous combustion
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Store in a cool and dry area, but prevent condensation on cell or battery terminals High temperature may damage
the performance of the battery Protect from physical damage and short circuits To avoid risk of fire or explosion,
keep sparks and other sources of ignition away from the battery Do not allow metal objects to simultaneously
contact both positive and negative terminal of batteries. Do not stack battery directly on another battery Do not
store batteries on electrically conductive surfaces.
