If acid contacts eyes, skin or clothing, immediately flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention. Failure to do this may cause personal injury or damage to clothing or the painted surfaces.

SULPHATION

Scheme 97

Scheme 97
Scheme 97
  1. A battery will be completely discharged if it is left unattended for a long time and the specific gravity will become less than 1.100. This may result in sulphation on the cell plates.
  2. To determine if a battery has been "sulphated", note its voltage and current when charging it. As shown in the figure below, less current and higher voltage are observed in the initial stage of charging sulphated batteries.
  3. A sulphated battery may sometimes be brought back into service by means of a long, slow charge, 12 hours or more, followed by a battery capacity test.
