1.4 Response to Emergency Situations

While the ESP-BCU HL is equipped with multiple safety features to prevent hazards

caused by failures, it is important to note that EndurEnergy cannot guarantee absolute

safety in uncertain situations.

1.4.1 Leaking Batteries

The ESP-BCU HL includes an auxiliary battery to maintain operation in the absence of an

alternate power source. In case of electrolyte leakage from the auxiliary battery, it's

imperative to prevent any contact with the leaked liquid or gas. Electrolyte possesses

corrosive properties and can result in skin irritation and chemical burns. Should you come

into contact with the leaked substance, please take the following steps:

•Inhalation:

oEvacuate the contaminated area immediately.

oSeek medical attention without delay.

•Eye contact:

oRinse your eyes with flowing water for at least 15 minutes.

oSeek medical attention promptly.

•Skin contact:

oWash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.

oSeek medical attention as soon as possible.

•Ingestion:

oIf the electrolyte is ingested, promptly induce vomiting.

oSeek immediate medical attention.

The previous instructions are provided to address potential risks associated with electrolyte

leakage. It is important to prioritize your safety and seek professional medical assistance

without delay in case of exposure to the leaked substance.

1.4.2 Fire

In the event of a fire, it is important to have an ABC or carbon dioxide extinguisher readily

fire.

available. Do not use water to extinguish the

WARNING

The auxiliary battery may catch fire when heated above 150°

If a fire breaks out where the battery control unit is installed, please follow these actions:

•Prioritize extinguishing the fire before the battery catches fire if it is safe to do so.

Use appropriate fire extinguishing methods and equipment according to the type

of fire (e.g., ABC or carbon dioxide extinguisher). Ensure your safety and consider

seeking professional assistance if necessary.

•If the battery control unit has already caught fire or if it is not safe to attempt

extinguishing the fire, prioritize the immediate evacuation of all individuals from the

area. Follow established emergency evacuation procedures and ensure everyone

moves to a safe location.Contact the appropriate emergency services to report the

fire.

Note: The above actions are intended to address fire situations where the battery is

involved. Always prioritize personal safety and adhere to established emergency

procedures.

WARNING

If the battery control unit catches fire, it will produce poisonous gases. Do not

If you notice any damage to the battery control unit, please contact EndurEnergy customer

service or your distributor for assistance as soon as possible. It is crucial to handle a

damaged battery control unit with extreme caution, as it can be dangerous. A damaged

battery control unit is not suitable for use and may pose a risk to people and property. If

you suspect the battery control unit is damaged, promptly return it to EndurEnergy or your

distributor.

CAUTION

A damaged battery control unit may release electrolyte or flammable gas.

Additionally, please note that a damaged battery control unit can adversely affect

the functionality of connected batteries, potentially causing damage to them.
