Battery Room - Humidificaiton Requirement
Battery Room - Humidificaiton Requirement
(OP)
I've searched for a design guidline for humiditiy requirement in battery rooms but have not had any luck. There is quite a lot of info regarding ventilation but not humidification.
What is a typical guidline or reference for humidity in battery rooms?

TECMSC what is the reason for the humidity control?
RE: Battery Room - Humidificaiton Requirement
GMcD...these are flooded batteries. we have proper ventilation rates and have not had any problems with static discharge and no humidification for the last five years i.e no explosions.
gepman...To control the battery environment to a minimum of 30% RH to minimize ESD. Temperature and ventilation seem to be the critical design parameters.
FYI, I was informed that the moisture(condnesation) on a battery would cause excessive charging current which isn't a good thing.
