Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
Fire extinguishers
Powder extinguisher, foam extinguisher, carbon dioxide gas
extinguisher, large amount of dry sand
Specific firefighting method
In the initial state of a fire, move cells/batteries from near the
fire source, to a safe location. At that time, work at a windward
location, as far as possible, and be sure to put on a protective
breathing mask.
Protection of firefighting
personnel
Be wear protective breathing masks, gloves, glasses and
helmet for the keeping safe. (Preferably, use a self-feeding
type mask.)
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
A cell hermetically contains constituents in a vessel, so contents normally may not leak out. However,
if the contents leaks because of a mechanical or electrical stress, wipe with liquid-boric to absorb it,
and collect in a vessel. After that, flush the site with a large amount of water. At that time, be sure
to put on protective-gloves, glasses and mask. (Preferably, use a self-feeding type mask.)
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Handling
Never solder a cell body.
Do not contact cell terminals between each other, or with
another conductor. Neither throws into fire, decompose, heat,
dent, deform, charge nor drop a battery. Do not dip a cell in
water or seawater.
Storage
Store cells without direct sunlight, high temperature, high
humidity, rain, dew, etc., and select a storage location with a
temperature as low as possible (preferable temperature 10-
25°C and relative humidity 70% or less). In addition, keep
cells away from dangerous matter such as combustible or
ignitable materials. Absolutely never place a cell in contact
with a combustible or
conductive substance. Prepare
appropriate firefighting equipment.
