IEC 61056-2:2012 PDF

Scope: This part of IEC 61056 specifies the dimensions@ terminals and marking for all general purpose lead-acid cells and batteries of the valve regulated type : ? for either cyclic or float charge application; ? in portable equipment@ for instance@ incorporated in tools@ toys@ or in static emergency@ or uninterruptible power supply and general power supplies. The cells of this kind of lead-acid battery may either have flat-plate electrodes in prismatic containers or have spirally wound pairs of electrodes in cylindrical containers. The sulphuric acid in these cells is immobilized between the electrodes either by absorption in a microporous structure or in a gelled form. This standard defines the dimensions of the batteries in length@ height and width@ as well as the shapes of the terminals. The lead-acid cells and batteries which are described in this standard should be tested according to the requirements of IEC 61056-1. This part of IEC 61056 does not apply for example to lead-acid cells and batteries used for ? vehicle engine starting applications (IEC 60095 series)@ ? traction applications (IEC 60254 series) or ? stationary applications (IEC 60896 series). Conformance to this standard requires that dimensions@ terminals and marking correspond to these requirements.
