Battery Centre is a truly South African battery franchise network with outlets located in all large cities and many towns across the country. We carry a full range of car, truck, leisure, stop/start ready and motorcycle batteries. We strive to ensure our customers’ needs are fully understood and serviced. With many decades of experience as battery specialists, we are capable of checking and fitting a full range of batteries for any vehicle. Through our close association with OEMs in South Africa, we are able to fit batteries that are made in the same factory as those used by most major car manufacturers. They also emit hydrogen gas which can produce an explosive mixture. Therefore, this guide deals with safety precautions to be followed when working with batteries. Specific safety precautions will be mentioned throughout the guide where applicable. When working with acid wear a face shield and protective clothing. Use extreme care to avoid spillage or splashing as it can destroy clothing and if not treated promptly cause damage to the skin. Be especially cautious when lifting batteries with polypropylene containers as pressure on the end walls could result in acid being ejected through the vent plugs. If acid is spilt onto clothing or the skin it should be neutralised immediately using a solution of baking soda or household ammonia and water and then rinsed using clean water. If acid enters the eye, force the eye open and flood with cool, clean water for approximately fifteen minutes. If acid is swallowed drink large quantities of water or milk. Electrolyte spilt on the surface of the car should be neutralised and rinsed with clean water. We do not recommend the dilution of concentrated sulphuric acid by non-qualified personnel. In any event, batteries are supplied in a filled and charged condition and should never require acid to be added except in the case of spillage. They should know and observe the safety precautions detailed in this guide. They should be familiar with the procedures to be followed if they attempt to charge or test a battery or jump start a vehicle. The manufacturer’s instructions must be followed when any equipment such as a charger or tester is used. Hydrogen and oxygen are produced as a part of the operation of the battery. These gases produce an explosive mixture within the battery and escape through the vents. Always wear safety goggles or a face shield when working near a battery. A poor connection can cause an electrical arc which can ignite the hydrogen gas and cause an explosion. Avoid dropping tools across the terminals and use insulated spanners. The battery should be charged in a well-ventilated area. Do not remove the vent plugs during charge except when taking readings of specific gravity or topping up, if required. The battery should not be charged whilst still connected to the vehicle as the voltages reached during charge can damage the vehicle’s electrical system. Never touch the charger leads while the charger is switched on. This could break the circuit creating a spark which could result in an explosion.
