[RE-wrenches] Acid spill...

[Carl Emerson]

Hi there,

 

I just shipped a largish bank of Exide BMPE19 flooded batteries to the
Islands.

 

On unloading, a pallet split and several cells lost electrolyte.

 

8 out of the 48 - 2V cells lost about 1/3 of their acid.

 

The question is would it be safe to even out the acid in the whole 48 cells
and then top up with distilled water?

 

Appreciate your collective wisdom.
