After receiving a charged battery connect it to the ups(load) system at the earliest.if the battery is kept in idle condition for more than one month , give a full charge and then only connect to the ups/inverter(load) system.
For best results the battery is to be operated at below 40°c.continued operation at high temperature will shorten battery life.
Over charging of battery is indicated by the high excessive temperatures and frequent topping up suitably adjust the charger voltage settings.
Under charging of battery is shown by the progressive decrease of specific gravity suitably adjust the charger voltage settings.
Topping up of cells should be done once in 4 months. Add d.m. Water to bring up to the float mark level at regular intervals to avoid exposure of plates.
If the battery expected to operate continuously in cold climate,(i.e., average ambient temp. Through out the year is less than 15 °c) the sp.gr. Of initial filling battery grade acid used shall be 1.280+/- 0.005 at 27 deg.c
