Stationary lead-acid batteries - Part 11: Vented types - General requirements and methods of tests

This part of EN 60896 is applicable to lead-acid cells and batteries which are designed for service in fixed locations (i.e. not habitually to be moved from place to place) and which are permanently connected to the load and to the d.c. power supply. Batteries operating in such applications are called stationary batteries. Any type or construction of lead-acid battery may be used for stationary battery applications. This part 11 of the standard is applicable to vented types only. This first edition of EN 60896-11 cancels and replaces EN 60896-1 (first edition) published in 1987 and its amendments 1 (1988) and 2 (1990), and constitutes a technical revision.

Batteries stationnaires au plomb - Partie 11: Batteries au plomb du type ouvert - Prescriptions générales et méthodes d'essai

La présente partie de la EN 60896 est applicable aux éléments et batteries au plomb destinés à être exploités dans des installations à poste fixe (c'est-à-dire qui ne sont pas en règle générale prévus pour être déplacés) et connectés en permanence à une charge et à une source de courant continu. Les batteries opérant dans ces conditions sont dénommées "batteries stationnaires". Tous les types et toutes les constructions d'éléments ou de batteries au plomb peuvent être utilisés pour des applications de batteries stationnaires. La présente Partie 11 de la EN 60896 n'est applicable qu'aux éléments et batteries au plomb du type ouvert. Cette première édition de la EN 60896-11 annule et remplace la EN 60896-1 (première édition) parue en 1987 et ses amendements 1 (1988) et 2 (1990), dont elle constitue une révision technique.

FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the
two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60896-11 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 21:
Secondary cells and batteries.
This first edition of IEC 60896-11 cancels and replaces IEC 60896-1 (first edition) published
in 1987 and its amendments 1 (1988) and 2 (1990), and constitutes a technical revision.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
21/572/FDIS 21/579/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Annex A is for information only.

This standard constitutes part 11 of the IEC 60896 series, published under the general title
Stationary lead acid batteries. At the time of the publication of this part, the following parts
had already been published or were in the process of being published:
• Part 11: Vented types – General requirements and methods of tests (this part)
• Part 21: Valve regulated types – Functional characteristics and methods of test .
The committee has decided that this publication remains valid until 2008. At this date, in
accordance with the committee’s decision, the publication will be
• reconfirmed;
• withdrawn;
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
