| The
Problem: Electrolyte Spills |
Spill control systems are
rapidly becoming standard equipment in all battery
rooms. Spill Control is now a clear and legal necessity
nation wide, whether your regulatory Agency is UFC
(Uniform Fire
Code), IFC
(International
Fire Code), or NFPA1UFC.
|
The
potential hazards associated with a battery electrolyte
release come in two forms:
- When released, sulfuric
acid can damage the building and its equipment
as well as harm any personnel that come into
contact with it. The acid can also damage the
battery racks underneath them, thereby weakening
the support structure.
- Electrolyte contained
in older batteries can have measurable quantities
of lead or lead sulfate which can result in
hazardous contamination
|
|
|
|
| The Solution: ACRAN Spill Containment |
 |
Helps to bring battery
room into compliance with building codes, federal and
local regulations |
|
Acidsafe coating
protects floors and prevents vertical seepage |
|
Neutra-Mats provide
passive protection which reacts to a spill immediately,
changing color to indicate that a spill has occurred |
|
Installation is easy in
either new or retrofit applications |
|
Installs on most common
floor substrates, including concrete and composite tile |
|
Barrier adheres directly
to floor and does not require anchor bolts or drilling. |
|
Environmentally friendly
materials allow for safe installations and minimal disruption
to facility |
|
Thin profile minimizes
intrusion into aisle |
|
Epoxy does
not require resealing every year maintaining a liquid
tight barrier |
|
Mats absorbs
and neutralizes one (1) quart of acid maintaining PH of
7.0 to 9.0 at all times, even after full absorption |
|
|
| Does your site meet
the requirements of your local Regulatory Agency? |
All Agency Regulations require:
Each rack of batteries, or groups of
racks, shall be provided with an acid resistant liquid-tight
flooring, 4-inch spill control barrier which extends at least
1-inch beyond the battery rack in all directions.
An approved method to neutralize spilled electrolyte shall be
provided. The method shall be capable of neutralizing a spill
from the largest lead-acid battery to a pH between 7.0 and 9.0
.
Doors leading to rooms with stationary lead acid battery systems
must have approved signs.
Details in the requirements may differ between Regulatory Agencies
from state to state.
Please Contact ACRAN and let ACRAN
help you understand how to meet your local requirements. |
