EN
Dear customer, thank you for purchasing one of our Uniteck products. Please read all the instructions
carefully and thoroughly before using the product.
DESCRIPTION
UNIBAT is a lead-acid battery with a VRLA* technology and an GEL carbon technology.
Equipped with an advanced technological design (compressed high density pure lead grid, highly
absorbent glass mat, carbon additive...), UNIBAT GEL batteries perform up to 2 times better in cycling
and lifespan than most batteries of the same category on the market.
Thanks to their unique internal design, UNIBAT GEL batteries can accept discharge rates of up to 80% to
use the maximum of the available energy. Their weak self-discharge guarantees a good stability over
time.
Its GEL technology guarantees safe use, without leaks or gas release.
*VRLA = Valve regulated Lead Acid

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION

Ventilation
Valve Regulated Lead-acid batteries produce hydrogen and oxygen during their functioning.
These gases result from electrolysis of the water portion of the electrolyte by the charging current. Natural
or artificial ventilation is recommended in the battery room, or area, to prevent build-up. Concentrations
above 4% can result in an explosive mixture, which could be ignited by sparks from adjacent electrical
equipment as well as sparks or open flames introduced by personnel. All air moved by ventilation should
be exhausted into the outside atmosphere and should not be allowed to re-circulate into other confined
areas. Ventilation requirements vary. Contact your local authority for requirements.

Storage location

A battery system should be installed in a clean, fresh (between 20°C and 25°C) and dry location.
Avoid placing the battery in a warm area or in direct sunlight. Heaters, radiators and steam pipes can
cause serious electrolyte temperature variation among cells within a battery system. The layout and
contents of a battery room must comply with all local standards and allow easy access to the batteries.
