Proposition 65:
Steps to be taken in case
material is released or spilled:
Waste Disposal Method:
EnerSys Energy Products Inc. batteries are starved electrolyte batteries which means the electrolyte is absorbed in the separator
material. The batteries are also sealed. As of September 30, 1995, EnerSys Energy Products Inc. batteries were classified as
"nonspillable batteries", and as such are not subject to the full requirements of 49 CFR § 173.159. The previous exempt
classification, "Dry Batteries, Not Restricted" was discontinued effective September 30, 1995. "Nonspillable" batteries are
excepted from the regulation's comprehensive packaging requirements if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) The battery is
protected against short circuits and is securely packaged. (2) For batteries manufactured after September 30, 1995, the battery and
outer packaging must be plainly and durably marked "NONSPILLABLE" or "NONSPILLABLE BATTERY". (3) The battery is
capable of withstanding vibration and pressure differential tests specified in 49 CFR § 173.159(d). (4) At a temperature of 55 ºC
(131ºF), the battery must not contain any unabsorbed free-flowing liquids, and is designed so that electrolyte will not flow from a
ruptured or cracked case.
EnerSys Energy Products Inc. batteries have been tested by WYLE Scientific Services & Systems Laboratories Group and
determined to be in compliance with the vibration and pressure differential tests contained in 49 CFR § 173.159(d), and therefore
as of September 30, 1995, excepted from the DOT requirements set forth in 49 CFR § 173.159, other than paragraph (d).
Battery shipments from EnerSys Energy Products Inc. Warrensburg location, will be properly labeled in accordance with applicable
DOT regulations.
Packaging changes performed at other locations may require additional labeling, since in addition to the battery itself
containing the required marking, the outer packaging of the battery must also contain the required marking:
"NONSPILLABLE" OR "NONSPILLABLE BATTERY". Because the batteries are classified as "Nonspillable" and meet the three
conditions above, [from § 173.159(d)] they do not have an assigned UN number nor do they require additional DOT hazard
labeling.
The regulation change effective September, 1995, was to clarify and distinguish to shippers and transporters, all batteries that have
been tested and determined to be in compliance with the DOT Hazardous Material Regulations, the International Civil Aeronautics
Organization (ICAO), and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Packing Instruction 806 and Special Provision A67,
and therefore excepted from all other requirements of the regulations and classified as a "nonspillable battery".
Per 42 USC Section 14322 (US Code Title 42 – The Public Health and Welfare), packaging must be marked with the following:
"Contains Sealed Lead Battery" and "Battery Must Be Recycled".
The EnerSys Energy Products Inc. sealed lead acid battery is determined to be an "article" according to the OSHA Hazard
Communication Standard and is thereby excluded from any requirements of the standard. The Material Safety Data Sheet is
therefore supplied for informational purposes only.
The information and recommendations contained herein have been compiled from sources believed to be reliable and represent
current opinion on the subject. No warranty, guarantee, or representation is made by EnerSys Energy Products Inc., as to the
absolute correctness or sufficiency of any representation contained herein and EnerSys Energy Products Inc. assumes no
responsibility in connection therewith, nor can it be assumed that all acceptable safety measures are contained herein, or that
additional measures may not be required under particular or exceptional conditions or circumstances.
N/A or Not Applicable - Not applicable for finished product used in normal conditions.
SECTION VI - Health Hazard Data (Continued)
Warning: Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead
and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and reproductive harm. Batteries also contain other chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer. Wash hands after
handling.
SECTION VII - Precautions for Safe Handling & Use
Avoid contact with acid materials. Use soda ash or lime to neutralize.
Flush with water.
Dispose of in accordance with Federal, State, & Local Regulations. Do
not incinerate. Batteries should be shipped to a reclamation facility for
recovery of the metal and plastic components as the proper method of
waste management. Contact distributor for appropriate product return
procedures.
