Valve Regulated Lead Acid Battery

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

GHS Classification As long as using in a range of conditions specified in the manufacturer's specifications, Valve Regulated lead acid batteries are articles that does not change their shape and nature from the beginning to the end. This identification is described assuming that when handling these products, if the contents are spilled out by dropping damage etc. from them, if the used batteries are recycled and if the general user touches the lead terminals.
