Contact UsEmployers must consider exposure to these hazards when developing safe work practices and selecting personal protective equipment (PPE). That is where Article 320, Safety Requirements Related to Batteries and Battery Rooms comes in.
1. Space Planning and Layout 900mm min Battery Room Layout 1200mm Primary Access End Access 1000mm Battery Racks Industrial battery installations require adequate spacing for maintenance, ventilation, and safety. The layout should accommodate: 2. Structural Requirements
Battery room compliance can be interpreted differently depending on your battery type, amount of cells or multi-cell units in a common area, volume of electrolyte and voltage present. Although the code is specific about requirements, the local interpretation can vary depending on the end users experience or awareness.
The layout should accommodate: 2. Structural Requirements Floor loading capacity is critical - industrial batteries typically weigh 1500-3000 kg/m². For VLA (flooded) batteries, acid-resistant floor coatings compliant with AS/NZS 2430.3.2 are required.
It is a requirement to have all the documentation in place prior to authorized personnel entering a battery room to perform a specific work task on a battery system under normal operating conditions. However, it is likely the employee will need to enter the battery room to deal with a battery system that is not operating normally.
In addition, cabinets with VRLA batteries have a separate requirement to identify the details of the battery system, electrical, chemical and fire hazards. Remember New York City B-29 Certificate of Fitness requires a specialized sign kit for all five boroughs.
