Similarly, this document should be considered in the context of applicable federal, state, and local health, safety, fire, and other pertinent regulations, which

12、 are predominant. In particular, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations 1926.403 and 1910.178 specify the federal requirements concerning safe care and charging of storage batteries.2.2 Definitions:The following words and terms are most often associated with industrial lead

13、 acid batteries, and should be familiar to personnel responsible for proper battery maintenance:AMPERE (AMP or A): A unit of measurement of electrical current. The current forced through a resistance of 1 by a potential of 1 V is equal to 1 A.AMPERE-HOUR (Ah) CAPACITY: Ampere-Hour capacity is the nu

23、.3. LIMITATIONS:This document is intended as a basic battery maintenance guideline only, and should not supersede battery or charger manufacturers detailed installation, handling, charging, and maintenance instructions. Service-related problems with batteries, chargers, vehicles, and components that

24、 cannot be solved on the job or in on-site maintenance shops should be referred to the manufacturers or their authorized representatives.4. GENERAL BACKGROUND:Battery-powered, or electric, GSE is utilized throughout the world by major passenger airlines, regional carriers, fixed-base operators (FBOs

25、), air cargo lines, and the military. It may be used in conjunction with, or in place of, fossil-fuel-powered GSE.The most widely used types of electric GSE on airport ramps are pushout (tow) tractors, baggage tractors, belt loaders, and cargo transporters and loaders. Many forklift trucks used in o

26、ff-ramp baggage handling areas are also battery-powered. Cabin-service vehicles, personnel carriers, and other types of GSE may also be battery-powered. A wide range of battery sizes are available to equip these vehicles.SAE INTERNATIONAL AIR1898A 3 OF 124.1 Electricity Demands:There are recent inst

27、ances at several airports where there is a shortage electric capacity or utility power lines to provide sufficient power for battery charging. This is now being actively addressed by local power companies and airport authorities.4.2 Charging Regimes:There are basically two regimes for charging batte

28、ries:a. Opportunity - (Prior to selecting this charging regime, the battery manufacturer should be consulted to ensure that a properly matched charger is used, i.e., smart charger)b. DemandThe opportunity method is for active vehicles meaning charging batteries on the vehicle (no removal of battery

29、required) whenever there is a lull in the vehicles duty cycles. The other method is demand charging, meaning charging batteries when they have reached a maximum 80% depth of discharge (even though they may be rated at 100% depth of discharge), as indicated by the vehicles dashboard-mounted gauges an

30、d/or by actual battery capacity testing with instruments. Whenever possible, battery charging should be performed at night, when activity is normally slow at airports and the significant economies of off-peak-generated electricity may be realized. Details regarding charging regimes may be found in 7

31、.2.5. BATTERY PRINCIPLES:5.1 General Electrochemistry:When two dissimilar materials, in this case lead peroxide and elemental lead, are immersed in a solution of sulfuric acid and water (known as the electrolyte) within a battery, an electromotive force of approximately 2 V per cell is generated. Ba

32、tteries attain their maximum voltage rating by grouping many cells together, thus creating batteries of 24 V (12 cells), 36 V (18 cells), 48 V, 72 V, and so on.5.2 Discharge Cycle:The electrolyte reacts with the lead peroxide in the positive plates and the elemental lead in the negative plates to fo

33、rm lead sulfate on both sets of plates. At the same time, the oxygen from the lead peroxide is disassociated from the positive plates and combines with the hydrogen from the sulfuric acid to form water. As this reaction continues, both the positive and the negative plates become less and less dissim

34、ilar, and the sulfuric acid becomes more and more diluted; eventually, the battery becomes discharged in this manner. This reaction, coupled with the pounds of lead and the pounds of sulfuric acid, produce the rated capacity of the battery, which may be measured in kilowatt hours (kWh) or ampere hou

35、rs (Amp hours or Ah). The energy available from a battery at any given time is affected by the rate at which energy is discharged from the battery.SAE INTERNATIONAL AIR1898A 4 OF 125.3 Charge Cycle:By introducing an electric current back into the battery via connecting it to a properly-sized charger

36、, the same chemical reaction that is responsible for discharge is reversed and the battery is charged. In other words, the positive plates are restored to lead peroxide, the negative plates to elemental lead, and the electrolyte to its original concentration.6. BATTERY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES:The fol

37、lowing procedures should be followed whenever handling batteries, whether during normal charging, regularly scheduled periodic maintenance, or specific repair situations:a. Protective clothing, including eye shields (preferably full face shields) and aprons are required during topping-up procedures.

38、 If electrolyte accidently comes in contact with the skin, flush promptly with water. Battery maintenance areas are also required to be equipped with certain safety devices - a fire extinguisher, an eye wash basin, and a shower (which should be located nearby). It is also highly recommended that a p

39、lacard of basic on-the-job safety procedures be clearly displayed in all battery charging/maintenance areas.b. Keep batteries cool and dry. Never store, use, or charge batteries near open flames, sparks, smoking materials, or sources of excessive heat or moisture.c. Check fluid (water-acid electroly

40、te) level periodically if using a battery requiring regular maintenance. If necessary, add only approved water (usually distilled or low-mineral-content water), filling each cell (through its opening) to no more than the manufacturers recommended level, or via the single-point watering port on batte

41、ries constructed in this manner. Water should be added when the battery is fully charged, otherwise, expansion may cause corrosive and potentially harmful acid to spill over during the charging cycle; also, hydrogen gassing levels could exceed the norm.NOTE: This level-checking and, if necessary, “t

42、opping up“ of the electrolyte refers only to traditional vented, liquid electrolyte batteries. Sealed batteries (often called reduced-maintenance or maintenance-free batteries) obviously do not require much, if any, regular user maintenance. It is not advisable for users to add sulfuric acid to batt

43、eries; in infrequent instances when test readings indicate insufficient electrolyte concentration, consult manufacturers instructions.d. Shut off all incoming power and disconnect the battery from the charger before servicing batteries or chargers. Assure that all other connections are clean, tight,

44、 and well insulated.e. Do not overcharge batteries. Follow manufacturers guidelines. Overcharging can be just as damaging to batteries as undercharging.f. Adequate ventilation (especially above batteries) is mandatory when charging to allow dilute gases to escape and be disposed of safely (hydrogen

45、gas is liberated during the charging cycle and is explosive). Simple hoods above battery-chargers and exhaust blowers-vents often suffice.SAE INTERNATIONAL AIR1898A 5 OF 126. (Continued):g. Monitor battery condition regularly and record the electrolyte specific gravity (hydrometer reading) and volta

46、ge output (voltmeter reading) of each cell. Check these readings against the norms, promptly investigating the cause of large and/or frequent variations from the norms as specified by the manufacturers. A well-organized maintenance record book should be kept so that all personnel involved can access

47、 accurate, up-to-date, battery information quickly. Good record-keeping may also prove invaluable should warranty claims need to be made or should major repairs be indicated. Specific gravity readings for battery cells are as follows:(1) Full charge: 1.275 to 1.320 (some high gravity batteries might

48、 have readings in excess of 1.320)(2) Medium charge: 1.240 to 1.275(3) Low charge: 1.200 to 1.240(4) Fully discharged: 1.100 to 1.140h. Keep vent plugs tightly in place and free of foreign matter when batteries are in service or charging.i. Clean external battery case periodically with sodium bicarb

49、onate (household baking soda) and water solution; use a stiff scrub brush if corrosion is heavy on the battery casing. It is preferable to allow battery to dry thoroughly before placing back in service, but some types of batteries can be used immediately after washing.CAUTION: Avoid ingestion of cleaner into the battery.NOTE: Sealed lead acid batteries, because they are unvented, should not require external case maintenan
