Battery Room Ventilation Requirements
Lead-Acid (LA) and Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) batteries vent hydrogen and oxygen when they are being charged. In the case of Valve-Regulated designs, the hydrogen is recombined with the oxygen within the battery back into water unless the gassing volume/pressure exceeds the opening setting of the pressure relief valve. Hence the name Valve-Regulated.
CCOHS: Battery Charging
Flooded lead-acid batteries (e.g., used in some electric forklifts) contain an electrolyte solution of sulfuric acid and distilled water. During normal operation, the water evaporates and needs to be refilled (watered) to keep the battery operating effectively and safely. Use distilled water. Do not add sulfuric acid to the electrolyte. Batteries should be watered …
