​Battery Maintenance

Our experience has shown the key factor to achieving optimum performance and long battery life is to follow a regular care and maintenance program.  While reviewing our battery maintenance tips, please keep in mind that all battery systems are unique. Battery type, charger technology, equipment loads, cable size, climate and other factors can all vary. Slight or significant, these differences will require battery maintenance to be adjusted accordingly. These are only guidelines to follow for proper battery care. Each particular system will always require a degree of customized attention.

Important things to remember:

 1. Do not allow the plates to be exposed to air. This will damage (corrode) the plates.
 2. Do not fill the water level in the filling well to the cap. This most likely will cause the battery to overflow acid, consequently losing capacity  
     and causing a corrosive mess.
 3. Do not use water with a high mineral content. Use distilled or deionized water only.

The Most Important Things to Avoid

  1. Freezing. Avoid locations where freezing temperatures are expected. Keeping a battery at a high state of charge will also prevent freezing. Freezing results in irreparable damage to a battery’s plates and container.
  2. Heat. Avoid direct exposure to heat sources, such as radiators or space heaters. Temperatures above 80° F (26.6º C) accelerate the battery’s self-discharge characteristics. For more information about how to take care your batteries, please visit www.trojanbattery.com ​​

​Charging Batteries Properly

 Here is list of helpful items to remember when charging:
​
  1. Become familiar with and follow the instructions issued by the charger manufacturer.
  2. Batteries should be charged after each period of use.
  3. Lead acid batteries do not develop a memory and do not need to be fully discharged before recharging.
  4. Charge only in well-ventilated areas. Keep sparks or flames away from charging batteries.
  5. Verify charger voltage settings are correct.
  6. Correct the charging voltage to compensate for temperatures above and below 80° F (26.6°C). (Add .028 volt per cell for every 10° below 80° F (26.6°C) and subtract 0.028 volt per cell for every 10° F (12.2°C) above 80° F (26.6° C))
  7. Check water levels regularly.
  8. Tighten all vent caps before charging.
  9. Prevent overcharging the batteries. Overcharging causes excessive gassing (water breakdown), heat buildup, and battery aging.
  10. Prevent undercharging the batteries. Undercharging causes stratification which can lead to premature battery failure.
  11. Do not charge a frozen battery.
  12. Avoid charging at temperatures above 120° F (48.8° C)
