Response to emergencies
The Soluna 10K PACK HV BS comprises multiple batteries that are designed in such a way as
to prevent hazards resulting from failures. However, Soluna Australia cannot guarantee the
absolute safety of the BS.
Leaking batteries
If the BS leaks electrolyte, avoid contact with the leaking liquid or gas. The electrolyte is
corrosive – contact with it may cause skin irritation and/or chemical burns. If a person/animal is
exposed to the leaked substance, do the following.
1) Avoid inhalation of the leaked substance.
2) Evacuate the contaminated area and seek medical attention immediately.
3) Avoid eye contact with the leaked substance.
4) If eye contact occurs, rinse eyes with flowing water for 15 minutes and immediately seek
medical attention.
5) Avoid skin contact with the leaked substance.
6) If the skin does come into contact with the leaked substance, wash the affected area
thoroughly with soap and water and immediately seek medical attention.
7) Avoid ingestion of the leaked substance.
8) If ingestion does occur, induce vomiting and seek medical attention immediately.
Fire
Always keep an ABC or carbon-dioxide fire extinguisher nearby in case of fire.
The BS may catch fire if heated above 150° Celsius.
If there is a fire near or at the location in which the BS is installed, do the following.
1) If it is safe to do so, extinguish the fire before the BS ignites.
If the BS does ignite, do not try to extinguish the fire; instead, call the fire brigade. Notify
everyone and evacuate people and animals from the area immediately.
If the BS catches fire, it will produce noxious and very unpleasant gases – do not
approach.
Wet batteries
If the BS becomes wet or is submerged in water, stay out of the water and contact Soluna
Australia or your distributor for technical assistance.
Damaged batteries
Damaged batteries must be handled with extreme caution – they are not fit for use and may
pose a danger to people, animals or property.
If the BS appears damaged, return it to its original container and contact Soluna Australia or
your distributor for further instructions.
Damaged batteries may leak electrolyte or produce flammable gas. If
damage, immediately contact Soluna Australia for advice and information.
